What is the slowest rotor speed a person can run in a r-5? Im having a problem grinding corn im at 300 or less on my rotor speed and my concaves are opened up I could go a little more but Ive always had a sample with ground up corn. The only other thing I can think of is I have a hole in the tube thats in my grain tank Im thinking maybe the corn is sitting there being ground up with the open auger? 18.6 moisture

I've done a lot of corn at 240 RPM rotor speed on an N-5 and standard cylinder bars/helical bars, no reverse bars. Trouble with slower rotor speeds is cobs break up more making cleaning the tank up a challenge.

yes steering fixed I replaced a leaking hose and still had turning issues I think bushings are so bad that if it goes past a certain point the wheels are turned so far that they fight getting past center of the long tie rod? If I said that right? The wheels turn so far one way that on the back stroke the tie rod is over center and prevents it from turning back I need to make a "Stop" to limit my Radis
