5. Adjust the distance between the cutting
knives and the rotor at the respective upper
link (Fig. 118/1) on the right-hand and left-
hand side of the machine if the measured
value is not approx. 20 mm.
5.1 Unscrew the counter nut (Fig. 118/2).
5.2 Remove the bolt (4) to loosen the
upper link fork (Fig. 118/3) from the
receiver pipe (5).
5.3 Turn the respective upper link fork to
set the distance between the cutting
knives and the rotor.
Increase distance between
cutting knives and rotor =
shorten upper link = turn upper
link fork clockwise.
Reduce distance between
cutting knives and rotor =
lengthen upper link = turn upper
link fork counterclockwise.

5.4 Measure again the distance on the right-hand and left-hand side of the rotor to check the set
distance.
5.5 Fix the upper link fork to the receiver pipe by means of the bolt if the distance between
cutting knives and rotor has been properly set.
5.6 Tighten the counter nut.
12.10.5 Check distance between strippers and rotor
Deformed stripper holders must be immediately replaced by an
authorised workshop! Only an authorised workshop is allowed to
carry out this work!
The minimum distance between the strippers and the rotor must be
12 mm over the complete width of the rotor. This distance will prevent
the rotor from becoming clogged. The distance must not fall below the
minimum value.
Reasons for a too small distance between strippers and rotor are:
worn strippers or
deformed stripper holders.
