5. Insert spindle (A) into cutterbar.

6. Insert studs (A) into spindle as shown.
NOTE:
Plugs are factory installed as shown in position
(B) but may come loose over time. Ensure studs
are inserted into proper location.
IMPORTANT:
Ensure clockwise spindles rotate clockwise
and counterclockwise spindles (with machined
grooves) rotate counterclockwise. The offset
gear design makes it possible to install spindles
having an opposite rotation of what is intended
which will prevent discs from spinning up after
impact resulting in cutterbar component damage.
