deflector (B). Tighten bolts (C).
18. Repeat the above steps for the opposite end.
19. Close the endshield. For instructions, refer to
Endshield, page 36.
20. After setting the recommended reel clearance to the
cutterbar and while the reel is still fully lowered, move the
reel back to ensure the steel end fingers do NOT contact
the deflector shields.
NOTE:
If contact is detected, adjust the reel upward until contact
with the deflector shields is avoided at all reel fore/aft
positions. Alternatively, with the reel fully lowered, trim the
steel end fingers until contact with the deflector shields is
avoided at all reel fore/aft positions. Periodically monitor
them to ensure contact is avoided and repeat the
adjustment procedure if necessary.
