8.3 Swath width adjustment
The swath width can be adjusted between 0.8 and 1.8 m wide. This also affects the
raking width which can be easily adjusted hydraulically by extending the rotor arm
extension sliders from the narrowest to the widest work setting. (Between 6.2 and 7.2 m
for the
R62-72
model and between 6.8 and 7.8 m for the
R68-78
model.) This is done
using the double-acting hydraulic lever, either in or out, until the desired setting is
reached.
8.3.1 Centre curtain
When working in heavy crop conditions, it may be necessary to remove the centre
curtain completely.The centre curtain can be removed by loosening the 3 bolts
highlighted using two 19 mm spanners.
Ensure all bolts, nuts, washers and spacers are stored in the toolbox, or kept with the
curtain, for refitting in the future.
