Have much trouble with shelling in the snapping rolls? I never really got to observe on ours or the neighbors if the rotating bar in it caused trouble or not?

Depends on moisture content. Not so much if it's a little wet. I can adjust by adding or removing the snapping roll lugs or by moving the snapping rolls closer or farther apart. If I remove lugs, I start at the front leaving the rear ones to make sure trash doesn't plug the rolls.

I meant the rotating bar above the snapping rolls that is supposed to help in snapping ears off the corn.

Never any trouble with it, it just does it's thing. Keep arms & legs out of there.
