Gleaner 320 Flex Head

Make sure the bar flexes real nice. When I first got my 315 for the L2 it was real stiff so I had to take all the pivoting parts apart and clean them up and oil real good and I think I used a lot of never seize. Then later years I added 12" wide flaps evenly staggered across the reel that extended about 3" past the teeth, I moved the auger up to about 3/4" off the floor and forward as far as possible. I got all these tips from this website and the combine forum. I believe some have made it so the auger can go further forward that what the adjustments normally allows and then you'd have to add addition chain length. I also cut at an angle and catch the tipped over beans on the return pass.

Oh and do a super job of cleaning out under the cut bar after use and spray lots of oil up there to prevent it from stiffening up again. My 315 spends all it's time inside but I still do that as a preventative measure,

Thanks for the info guys, another thing, I noticed you didnt have the outer row guides or whatever they are called on your header in your videos, is there a certain time a guy should or shouldnt use them? i would rather just take them off, Thanks

These dividers have a bunch of adjustment, it looks like I could shorten them up about a foot before they got in the way of the reel. Maybe I will go that way. Is there a need for them to be so far out in front of the reel that I am not seeing? If you find the pics of the drain tile mounted I would like to see it if you get a chance. Thanks for everything.
