4.10 Adjusting The Degree Of Compaction
Depending on the type of the material to be picked up, adjust the bale-compaction degree.
Adjust the degree of compaction with the lever and cord device (Figure 38).
For straw collection, a special setting of the compaction degree is dedicated, described
in Section 3.8.3.
Figure 38.
Adjusting the degree of compaction
Depending on the type of the material to be picked up, adjust the bale compaction
degree with the lever (5). The highest bale density is obtained when the cord is fixed in hole
No. 1, and, conversely, the lowest compaction degree is obtained when the cord is in hole No.
5. Adjust the compaction degree further by adjusting the length of the bolt (2) by means of the
nuts (3). Loosen the nut to increase the bale-compaction degree, and tighten the nut to
decrease the bale-compaction degree. Adjust the nut when, for example, the compaction in
hole No. 1 is too high, and in hole No. 2 too low.
The bale-compaction degree must also be adjusted using the tensioning lever shown
in Figure 39. For silage pick-up, set length A of the tensioning lever within the range of
55
– 65mm. For straw pick-up, set length A of the tensioning lever within the range of 65 – 75
mm.
DANGER!
Switch off the engine and remove the key from the ignition before adjusting
the degree of compaction.
