Mowing with the Conditioner
1. Raise both jack stands (16a) and secure with spring pin.
2. Select rotor r.p.m.
There are two to choose from. The cardan shaft is to be connected
to the appropriate gearing stub (A, B).
A: The lower r.p.m.
This r.p.m. does not condition the forage and only a normal swath
is formed. Move the hand lever to position "0".
B: The higher r.p.m.
This r.p.m. conditions the forage for quick drying. During this
process the surface is worn down, which would otherwise hinder
the quick-drying of the stems and leaves.
The conditioning intensity is influenced by the position of the lever
(0 - 5).
Lever position (1 - 5)
The distance between the beating arm and rotor is adjusted using
the hand lever which can also change the conditioning effect.
•
Conditioning is most efficient in the lowest position (5), the
forage surface is intesively worn down but it should not be
beaten.
•
The opposite effect is the case for the highest position (0) as the
forage surface is only lightly worn down.
The correct setting depends on the volume of forage, speed and
tractor power among other things. Because of this no binding
recommendation concerning the correct lever position can be
made at this point.
Adjustment of swath width
(
(A1)
Both swathboards are bearing-based and can be swivelled.
•
Set the required swath width by insering pin in the appropriate
hole(6)
-
Secure with linch pin
If an obstruction appears then the swath width is to be increased.
