A vibratory separator (100) including a first actuator (107A) coupled to a basket (105) and a second actuator (107B) coupled to the basket. Additionally, the vi-bratory separator (100) includes a motion control switch operatively connected to at least one of the first and second actuators (107A, 107B) and configured to modulate motion generated by the first and second ac-tuators between a first elliptical motion and a second elliptical motion. Also, a method of processing drilling waste, the method includ-ing flowing drilling waste over a screen of a vibratory separator and imparting a first el-liptical motion to the screen. The method further includes monitoring the flow of drilling waste over the screen, determining an overload condition exists, and adjusting the motion to a second elliptical motion based on the determined load condition.
