APS provides good results faster. Synchronized concave adjustment with overload protection. Synchronized threshing speeds. Our exclusive hydro-mechanical concave adjustment ensures precision finger-tip adjustment when fine-tuning performance. Hydraulic cylinders attached to the mechanical adjustment linkages on each side of the concave adjust the pre-concave and main concave simultaneously. Each concave moves in and out from its respective cylinder to prevent any bottle neck in the crop flow. This exclusive movement reduces wear and tear on the crop and the elements of the threshing system.
To maintain consistent material flow, each change made to the speed of the threshing cylinder will simultaneously change the speed of the APS cylinder and rear impeller. This maximizes efficiency while at the same time protects the crop. If a foreign object or extremely dense slug of material is ingested into the concave area, the hydro-mechanical adjustment linkage is equipped with a relief valve that will automatically drop the concave open (and reset automatically) to help avoid damage to the system and make clean-out easier. Dis-awning plates. Dis-awning plates are an exclusive lever-operated blanking plate system under the APS grates that can be used to enhance threshing performance.
Because they are lever operated, the operator can engage or dis-engage them in seconds without tools and without having to access the inside of the machine. 11
