Claim:
An adjustable spout for an agricultural harvester comprising: an interface mounted to a distal end of a discharge mechanism of the agricultural harvester; a plurality of nesting cones, each cone having a first end and a second end, the plurality of cones including an upper cone, a lower cone and at least one intermediate cone; the first end of the upper cone engaging the interface and the interface directing harvested material from the discharge mechanism into the first end of the upper cone; the second end of the upper cone slidably received within the first end of one of the at least one intermediate cones, the second end of one of the at least one intermediate cones slidably received within the first end of the lower cone; the nesting cones defining a continuous path for harvested material to flow from the discharge mechanism through the second end of the lower cone and slidable within each other between a retracted position and an extended position; a drive mechanism coupled to the cones, the drive mechanism moving the nesting cones from the extending position to the retracted position and including an actuator remotely located from the drive mechanism.
