4.5.2 Adjusting the Rear Deflector (Fluffer Shield)
DANGER
To avoid bodily injury or death from unexpected startup of the machine, always stop the engine and remove
the key from the ignition before leaving the operator's seat for any reason.
The rear deflector (fluffer shield) slows the crop exiting the conditioner rolls, directs the flow downward, and fluffs
the material.
1. For more crop control in light material, lower the
deflector (A) by pushing down on one side of the
deflector and then on the other side.
NOTE:
Locking handles (B) are located at both ends of
the deflector and may be loosened slightly.
2. For heavier crops, raise the deflector by pulling up on
one side and then on the other side.
NOTE:
For even windrow formation, be sure the
deflector (A) is not twisted.
3. Tighten handles (B) to secure deflector position.
4.5.3 Adjusting the Swath Baffle
The swath baffle determines the width and height of the windrow.
DANGER
To avoid bodily injury or death from unexpected startup of the machine, always stop the engine and remove
the key from the ignition before leaving the operator's seat for any reason.
