Grain Belt Plus Header – Owner's Manual
Connector Bar
On the 45 ft models of Grain Belt Plus headers, a connector
bar is used to connect two sections of knife back. The knife
back is the part of the knife that the sickle sections are bolted
to. The connector bar is installed on the underside of the
knife back. The connector bar has eight threaded inserts
installed into the bar, which protrude slightly on the (upper)
side which contacts the knife back. The knife back is punched
with holes to accommodate the sickle sections and the holes
are slightly tapered on the bottom side.
The knife sections must be installed on the top side of the
knife back (the side with the SCH Logo) so that the protruding
inserts of the connector bar will fit snugly into the tapered
section holes. As the section bolts are tightened, the inserts in
the connector bar are drawn into the knife back forcing the
threads to tighten on the bolt. The bolts should be tightened
from 120 - 150 in-lbs, (13.5 - 17 Nm).
Do not grind the inserts off, as this will make them ineffective in securing the
knife. Failure of the knife may result.
Cross section of shoulder insert, connector bar,
knife back, sickle section, and bolt. Notice how
the shoulder insert protrudes slightly into the knife
back. Check tightness of bolts daily; replace
broken and worn sections as required.
