Cam end bushings
1. Position the bushing halves (B) on the tine tube (A) with
the flangeless end adjacent to the tine tube arm, and
position the lug in each bushing half into the hole in the
tine tube.
2. Slide the tine tube (A) towards the tail end of the reel to
insert the bushing (B) into the tine tube arm. If the tine
tube supports are installed, ensure the bushings at
those locations slide into the support.
3. Reinstall the previously removed fingers or tines. Refer
to the following procedures as necessary:
•
Removing Plastic Fingers, page 509
•
Removing Steel Fingers, page 507
4. Install the bushing clamp (A) onto the tine tube adjacent
to the flangeless end of the bushing (B).
5. Position the clamp (A) on the bushing (B) so the edges
of the clamp and bushing are flush when the clamp is fit
into the groove on the bushing and the lock tabs are
engaged.
6. Tighten the clamp (A) using modified channel lock
pliers (B) until finger pressure will NOT move the clamp.

Overtightening clamp may result in breakage.
