It improves the rotors ability to spit it out the back, the earlier rotors on 500 series only had two padels which was a problem. But it doesn’t stop it setting fire to the straw - which starts at the front of the rotors. I have a photo showing the problem looking down torpedo tubes with rotor removed....... but can’t seem to find it.
We found if you can get it cut while the straw has some green in it - it helps, as in as much it may smoulder, but not fire :(

Stumbled across the photos I mentioned (above) today. Unfortunately image quality not the best - as it's a photo of a photo. But I think you get the picture?

How do you get to that to sort it ?
Easiest place to start is from inside the grain tank, there’s two covers to the lower rear that gives small access. I think the photo’s were taken in 2010 so I don’t think the issue wasn’t well documented then - hence the rotor removal. This “issue” never really caused our combine a risk of “ going up in smoke” bizarrely - just the crop/field. :(
