I got NH TC combine and so far harvested OSR, winter and spring wheat, barley and peas. In some fields of winter wheat I noticed annoying "da-da-da-da" sound which came and went. One day it got really loud so I started to look for what causes it and it turned out, that straws get stuck on top axle of straw elevator, then builds up to the point it lifts elevator chain which starts to wobble causing the sound. Chain tensioners are tensioned right to the marks.
What causes straw build up and how to avoid it? I myself could not figure it out. All fields seemed equally dry and it seems no correlation between straw length and the sound. Driving speed also doesn't change anything.
