THRESHING EQUIPMENT TO BE USED WITH SUNFLOWER
No special threshing equipment is necessary when harvesting sun À ower. The basic cutting table can, however, not
be used with sun À ower. The seeds fall off easily and the whole À ower heads may fall onto the ground in front of the
knife. This would mean too high table losses.
The combine may be equipped with a special cutting table meant for sun À ower. This is recommendable if there are
hundreds of hectares to be threshed annually.
A less expensive solution is to provide the standard cereal-cutting table with sun À ower equipment.
Fit extension trays in front of the knife to guide the stems onto the cutting knife and prevent seeds and À ower
heads from falling onto the ground.
The reel tines are equipped with plates by means of which any
À ower heads on the trays are fed in.
The straw dividers are replaced with high plate guides at the ends of the table to prevent the plants from turning to
the side on top of the table end.

If the sun À ower equipment has not been pre-installed in
the factory, ¿ t the tray clamps to the cutting knife. The
clamps go in the gaps between the knife presses.
See
¿ g. 9 21. Screen plate A is ¿ tted above the knife and
hook B below the knife. The ¿ rst clamp goes between the
6th and 7th ¿ nger. M10x45 screws are used in the ¿ tting.
Fitting of the Side Guides

dividers. The guide plate is ¿ xed to the frame tube with
screws.
