This mechanism is operated by means of lever (1), which, as the working unit approaches the
rake's linkage, is pushed away by pin (4) located on pull-out arm. The lever has a line (2) attached,
and with its use, along with the lever, push-off arm (3) operates. It is intended to protect the curtain
against damage by pushing it to a safe distance away from an operating rotor. With adjusting nut (5)
it is possible to set a safe distance for safety curtain from raking arms of the working unit.
