FIELD OPERATION
CHOPPING QUALITY -- Figure 165
The chopping plate L can be set in three different posi-
tions with eccentric part M. The closer the plate L is
set to the rotor, the shorter the chopped straw will be.
Loosen bolts N on both sides, turn eccentric part M
into the desired position and make sure notch P is
onto stop Q.
Tighten bolts N.
CHOPPING MAIZE -- Figure 167
For chopping maize, proceed as follows:
1. The rotor speed must be reduced by installing a
larger pulley onto the hub of the rotor shaft. This
pulley is part of the straw chopper slow down kit
which is available as an accessory.
2. The chopping plate L must be turned 180_ so that
the flat side is on the inside.
Remove bolts N on both sides and turn chopping
plate L.
3. Set rear plate R into the forward position using
bolts S on the inside.
4. Loosen bolts U and remove cover T. Remove
counter knives V one by one.
STRAW CHOPPER CLUTCH
When the clutch fails it must be repaired or replaced
as soon as possible. Legislation no longer allows to
temporarily lock the clutch in the engaged position be-
cause of the safety hazard created when the straw
chopper knives rotate whenever the engine is running
(even with the threshing mechanism disengaged).
