twine tie
9.8 Mechanical twine tie adjustments
9.8.1 Twine brake on the spool box
Adjust this twine brake to such an extend that the spring (1)
just stay without pressure when there is no twine in the
brake.
Do not use the twine brake on the spool box to increase
twine tension. This twine brake just serves to prevent the
twine from unnecessary rolling off the spools during
transport and work.
9.8.2 Twine brake on the tying tubes
Basic setting is 14 mm (35/64") .
Do not divert too far from the basic setting. The spring
is quite stiff and thus you easily reach a too high or
too low tension!
9.8.3 Twine knife
At the end of the twine tie cycle the knife arm moves to both
twine threads cutting them almost simultaneously.
The setting is only possible via the dealer functions (sect.
5.7) on the control box.
Attention:
- Ensure the cutting edge is sharp since the correct
function depends on it!
- If one or both twine t hreads are not cut, or the
cutting profile is long and fuzzy: this is an
indication of a dull knife!
