Inspection of knives and securing elements
Knives
Inspect systematically all knives before the machine is
operated to:
- guarantee the cutting quality.
- guarantee safety in use.
- Prevent cutterbar damage risks.
Replace knives in the following cases:
- Damaged knives.
• Very rough conditions can cause knives to crack
and become deformed.
- Worn knives.
Knife length C must exceed 80 mm (3.15’’).
Knife width B, measured at a distance A of
10 mm (0.39’’) from the disc edge must exceed
34 mm (1.34’’).
The hole L for the securing bolt must not become oval by
more than 22 mm (0.87’’).
Immediately replace worn or damaged parts with
genuine KUHN parts.
Always replace both knives per disc to avoid
creating an out-of-balance force.
