7.3.2 Bale chamber knives adjustment
The knives (fixed on the chamber, ref. A, and ref. B on the carriage, Fig. 7.10) are designed to
separate successive layers of material sent into the bale chamber by the feeder forks.
It is very important to adjust the knives to obtain quality bales and to avoid frequent breakage of the
shear bolt on the flywheel.
The distance between the knife fastened to the bale chamber and the movable knife fastened to the
plunger should be 0.8 - 1.5 mm. This play must be as little as possible but such as to allow free
movement of the plunger in the bale chamber.
After having checked the adjustment of the carriage side guides (see sect. 7.3.1 for further details),
the distance between the knives can be varied by changing the position of the angular knife fastened
to the plunger by means of bolts in slots (Ref. 1, Fig. 7.9).
