Use and maintenance manual for fixed or folding corn harvesting header 

EDITION 01/2016

 

 

 

 

63

 

29.  Annex D – Kit of Rubbers 

 

This Kit, easily installed on the front 
part of the covers, avoids the cobs. It is 
particularly suited for the threshing of 
hilly fields where threshing machine 
also has to work downhill. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

30.  Annex E – Compacting plates 

 

The two plates can be installed on the 
headers equipped with stalk choppers 
in order to avoid wearing down the 
threshing machine tyres. Without the 
plates, the chopped corn stalk, since it 
is hard and pointed, can wear down 
and break the tyre. 

They are not used when the threshing 
machine tyres travel between two rows 
of corn.
