Stuffer trip sensitivity lever
The setting of the stuffer trip sensitivity lever (1) determines the size of the
charge or flake injected into the bale chamber. Moving the lever will increase or
decrease the spring tension. Increasing the spring tension will result in feeding
bigger flakes. Decreasing the spring tension will result in feeding smaller flakes.
Adjust the stuffer trip sensitivity lever
(1) as low as possible maintaining
proper bale top fill. The lever in the
fourth notch (from the rear) on the
toothed sector will give satisfactory
results in most baling conditions. As
crop conditions are changing it might
be necessary to change the sensitivity.
Stuffer trip setting guide-lines are:
•
The thickness of the flakes in the finished well-
shaped dense bale should measure between 60
– 80 mm (2.4 – 3.1 in).
•
Observe the capacity indicator (1) on the
monitor.
•
When an excessive stuffer shearbolt failure rate
is experienced, reduce the stuffer trip setting.
•
Too high and too narrow swaths will not give
good feeding performance. Silage crops should
have a dry matter content between 40 – 60% for
best feeding results. Whatever stuffer trip
adjustment will not necessarily compensate for
poorly made swaths.
