25 Working with the forage harvester
C1200
When starting the forage harvester for
the first time, start the intake at idle
speed of the tractor.
Due to the high speed of the blade rotors
and the relatively high inertia mass, do
not switch on the intake at full motor
speed.
The intake can only be switched on and
off (i.e. for reversing to remove
blockages) at full speed, even in fast
sequence, as long as the blade rotors
remain at nearly the same speed, due to
the freewheel mechanism.
Cutting lengths
The chopping lengths can be adjusted
quickly by exchanging the V-belt pulleys
1 + 2.
The cutting length can also be adjusted
more finely by removing chopping blades
at regular intervals.
