Properly conditioned crop
Properly conditioned crop with a flail or PE finger condi-
tioner will exhibit signs of stripping on the plant stems as
the waxy coating is stripped off during the conditioning
process.
The flail and the PE finger conditioning system tend to
damage leafy crops more than the roll conditioning, re-
sulting in higher leaf losses.
Checking crop
As a general check, grab a handful of crop directly behind
the implement after the crop has been processed.
The plant stems should be mainly stripped of their waxy
coating.
If the plant stems exhibit signs of inadequate stripping or is
shredded, adjust the speed of the conditioner rotor or the
clearance between the fingers and the conditioner hood.
