1. Install Calmer transition plate.
OEM transition plate can no longer be used!
2. Install Calmer Stripper Plates
Recommended Stripper Plate Adjustments:
Begin with normal settings of 1 1/8” gap at the
front and 1 3/16” gap at the rear, then adjust accordingly to ensure plates are 1/16” wider than the
diameter of the 3rd cornstalk node above the brace root. Ensure stripper plate gap is centered over the
stalk rolls.
Hydraulic Plates:
Below are instructions for setting your Calmer Hydraulic Stripper Plates:
Position stripper plates so the center gap between the edge of the stripper plates is located over the
center of the stripping tunnel.
For Hydraulic Plates Only:
Once the stripper plates are at the desired gap, mark the gauge on the
frame or write down the value given in the cab’s “A” post display for future reference. This is the ideal
spot for the hydraulic stripper plates to match your initial settings.
Note: To minimize the amount of trash and stalk intake, the stripper plates must be open 1/16” wider
than the diameter of the 3rd cornstalk node above the brace root.
