A harvesting header has a crop conveying element fixed to an outboardcutter of a cutter bed. The crop conveying element includes at least oneslingerattached to an upstanding spacer to space the slinger apart from a top wall ofthecutter. The slinger includes a flat disc with a plurality of lobes extendingoutwardly from a central portion thereof and the spacer is shorter thanimpellersuch that a top extremity of the slinger is spaced below an upper level of anouterimpeller. The spacer is also smaller in diameter than the outer impeller so astoprovide a space below the slinger allow flow of the crop material over thesecondoutboard cutter, the space between the top wall of the cutter and the slingerbeing at least half of the height between a lower disc member and upperstationary grass ring of the outer impeller.
