point up when machine is in operating position) and
tighten new lock nuts to 170 ft. lbs.
11. While supporting the rotor at the center plate, tighten
the bearing bolts to 170 ft lbs.
12. Apply a thread locking compound and tighten the set
screws.

Knife replacement
Turn off all power to the draper windrower.
DANGEr: Failure to turn off power to the
draper windrower before replacing knives
could result in serious injury or death.
To replace a knife (1), remove lock nut (2) and bolt (3).
Remove knife from u-bar (4).
IMPOrTANT: The rotors of the draper windrower are
factory balanced and must remain in
balance during the life of the machine.
Should any knives on the machine need
replacing, be sure to also replace the
knives directly opposite to avoid vibration
and maintain the rotor balance. If a knife
is not available, take the opposite one off
until two new knife sets can be replaced.
