Figure 3.183: Initial Position of Adjustable Mounts
–
Three-Piece Auger
1.
Locate the adjustable mount.
NOTE:
On two-piece augers, the adjustable mount protrudes from
the center support assembly. On three-piece augers, the
adjustable mount protrudes from the ends of the
center auger.
NOTE:
The illustration shows the left adjustable mount on a three-
piece auger. The adjustable mount on a two-piece auger is
similar, but has only one secondary position for the front
bolt instead of three. Refer to Figure
for
more information.
2.
If desired, relocate front bolt and nut (A). The front bolt
and nut have two possible locations on two-piece augers:
the primary location and the secondary location. On three-
piece augers, there are four possible locations: one primary
location and three secondary locations.
3.
Loosen front nut (A) and rear nut (B) just enough to allow
the adjustable mount to slide.
4.
Move the mount to the desired position.
5.
Retighten nuts (A) and (B). Torque the nuts to 69 Nm
(51 lbf·ft).
6.
If a three-piece UCA is installed, repeat this procedure on the second adjustable mount.
IMPORTANT:
On headers with three-piece augers, ensure that both mounts are in the same position.
7.
Check for interference between the reel fingers and the UCA. Check for interference between the cam arms and the
UCA along the entire hydraulic fore-aft range of the reel. For instructions, refer to
Checking Upper Cross Auger for
Checking Upper Cross Auger for Interference
If the upper cross auger (UCA) is out of adjustment, it can contact the reel or the header frame. The clearance between the
UCA and certain header components will need to be inspected.
WARNING
Ensure that all bystanders have cleared the area.
1.
Start the engine.
2.
Fully retract the reel fore/aft fully to bring the reel as close as possible to the UCA.
NOTE:
If the reel cam adjustment is changed, this procedure will need to be performed again.
