That seems to be a very good machine. Would some mods to the front help? It seems like a rotating feed cylinder(similar to rock rakes ) on top of the pick up ramp could clear most jams. Wings on the sides would keep rocks from escaping when it starts to jam up. My rock problem was so bad that 30 years ago I stripped and screened the top 2 feet of my yard and garden area(about 1.5 ac). I had wanted to clear a 3 acre field and dig a 3 acre pond but the rocks were too much for my old dozer. Good Luck, Rick

They do the best job to be honest. This biggest issue is hitting a big rock with them and letting it try to go up the chains. Thanks for watching

I'd say the pto ground speed is too slow, I've watched dozens of rock picker videos and yours was not moving the soil up the shoot fast enough.

Most people dont have ground speed on their tractors. Trust me they work way better on ground speed than on 540. Alot are converted potato windrowers so have a different gear box if i run mine at 540 it will throw rocks over the dump box so most were fitted with a transmission cause you need to be able to reverse the bed chains to clean out. I live in the area where these pickers were designed and built ive run them for alot of years
