MOUNTING THE CUTTING HEADS
Review the "OPERATION" section beginning on
Page 9 before mounting the cutting units.
NOTE: All Ransomes Jacobsen cutting heads
are backlapped at the factory, but the
bedknife adjustment must be performed
before the unit is put into use. Refer to
the Bedknife Adjustment Procedure as
described in section 8.4 in this manual.
1.
Cut all shipping straps holding the front pull
frames in place and position the pull frames
so the up stop bumpers contact the up stop
brackets. Set cutting head drive motors and
hoses away from the lift arms.
2.
With the reel enable switch in the "OFF"
position, lower all three cutting head lift arms
and turn off the unit and remove ignition key.
(See Fig 8.2.1)
3.
Align the cutting head at the front of the
yoke frame. Secure cutting head to either
side of the yoke frame using the shoulder
bolt on each side of the cutting head. (See
Fig 8.2.2)
4.
To remove the cutting head, undo shoulder
bolts, applied in step 8.2.3.
