As for the separating area on our lex 570,yes when can manually adjust the cover plates on the rotors from outside the cab but the 2004 models can be adjusted from inside the cab via electirc motors on the cover plates and they can be adjusted open_closed inbetween etc.Other differences are bigger and roomier cab,redesigned chopper,redesigned rear end including access ladder and gas accumulaters on the concaves to eliminate shock loads of lumps,plugs, stones etc damaging the internals.I have never actually seen up close a CAT 485R so I can't for sure tell the difference with our Claas 570!!!
