Do you have the feeder drum stops flipped for beans??? They have to be turned from corn to beans. IN corn the allow the drum to float up and over ears of corn. In soybeans or other small grains you set them down so the feeder house chains cleans the bottom better and you will plug the front of the feeder house before the cylinder. This way you can use the reverser to back out any slugs.
Also on your 25 foot header look at the cross auger flighting and see if it quits just inside the width of the feeder house. IF the header was sold new on a smaller machine then they would have left the flighting long for those machines. You had some extensions that where bolted on and on others you had to actually cut the flighting and spot welds off to get the correct width. Then there where more feeder finger holes that had covers on them that you installed more so the material would feed across the entire width of the feeder house.
When your machine plugs doe the over beater plug first??? IF it is doing that then you will need more cylinder speed to speed the over beater up so it can handle the extra material.
Also 20% green weeds is pushing the limit of what you can expect the machine to handle. That is why soybeans where usually harvested after hard killing frost in the past. It has just been with the RR beans that we have supper clean fields that you can harvest so soon. SO even with everything working right you may have to slow down a lot for the green stuff to go through the machine.
