Page 44: Rotor Pitch
Preparing for use The rotors are inclined transversely to the chassis. The rotor is already R o t o r p i t c h inclined transversely ex-factory. If the crop is not picked up cleanly, the raking quality can be improved by adjusting the rotor pitch. Improved raking quality is achieved by adjusting the pitch of the rotor until the tines in the front left working range have the lowest ground clearance before depositing the crop (see illustration). - Page 45 Preparing for use A d j u s t i n g t h e r o t o r p i t c h Close the ball valve Close the ball valve before adjustment. If the ball valve is open and there is an operating error, the machine can lower itself and cause serious injuries.
