Roll Timing
For proper conditioning, the rolls must be properly timed so that the bar on one roll is centered between two bars on the
other roll. The factory setting should be suitable for most crop conditions.

Figure 3.49: Properly Timed Rolls
IMPORTANT:
Roll timing is critical when the roll gap is decreased because
conditioning is affected and the bars may contact each other.
Adjusting Roll Timing
The roll timing is factory-set and should not require adjustment. However, if there is excessive noise coming from the
conditioner rolls, the timing will need to be adjusted.
