5.7.3 Adjusting Draper Tension
The drapers are tensioned at the factory and should NOT require adjustment. If adjustment is required, draper tension
should be just enough to prevent slipping and to keep the draper from sagging below the cutterbar.
DANGER
To prevent bodily injury or death from the unexpected start-up or fall of a raised machine, always stop the engine,
remove the key, and engage the safety props before going under the machine for any reason.
