Figure 4.103: Cutterbar Spindles
To prevent damage to the cutterbar and drive systems, each
disc is attached to a spindle containing a shear pin (A).
If the disc contacts a large object such as a stone or stump, the
pin will shear and the disc will stop rotating and move upwards
while remaining attached to the spindle with a snap ring (B).
IMPORTANT:
Ensure correct orientation of the shear pins during replacement.
•
Spindles that rotate clockwise have right-leading threading.
•
Spindles that rotate counterclockwise have left-leading
threading.
NOTE:
Once spindle has risen due to shear pin failure, the spindle
’
s
bearing will become unloaded. Do
NOT
replace the spindle due
to excessive play. Check play after torquing spindle nut and
replacing damaged shear pins.
