clearance at inboard ends of reels and clearance at flex
points as follows:

b. Turn nut (C) counterclockwise to raise reel and
increase clearance to cutterbar, or clockwise to
lower reel and decrease clearance.
c. Tighten nut (B).
4. Check measurements and if necessary, repeat adjustment procedures.
5. Move reel back to ensure steel end fingers do not contact deflector shields.
6. If contact occurs, adjust reel upward to maintain clearance at all reel fore-aft positions. If contact cannot be
avoided after adjusting the reel, trim steel end fingers to obtain proper clearance.
