Figure 29. – Lifter Wheel Optional Equipment:
Close-Up Attachments
The lifter wheel has an optional close-up attachment.
Close-up attachments prevent small beets from falling
out between the lifter wheel spokes. Slot adjustments are
provided on the close-up attachments so they may be
rotated out of the way as conditions warrant.
PADDLE ASSEMBLIES
Figure 30. – Header Paddle Assembly
The paddle assemblies push the harvested beets from
the lifter wheels to the header grab rollers. Mechanical
rotation of the paddle assemblies comes from the
harvester gearbox through a sprocket and chain drive
system.
The paddle assemblies are equipped with a split rubber
paddle. This allows each paddle to be narrowed or
widened for certain conditions. For example, in muddy
conditions, the paddle can be moved to the open position
to help clean mud off the wheels.
The paddles also have two holes to adjust the length of
the rubber being exposed. The longer position will help
in muddy conditions as well as to help push small beets
back into the rollers.
NOTE
: If the entire lifter wheel and strut assembly is
adjusted left or right (laterally), the paddle assemblies
and barriers must also be adjusted.
CONVEYOR ROLLERS
Figure 31. – Header Conveyor Rollers
The conveyor rollers rotate rearward, pushing the beets
toward the center of the rollers and towards the short
conveyor.
The conveyor rollers are mechanically rotated using both
a belt and chain drive system.
If the poly rolls have been selected as an option, the
spacing can be adjusted to an open or closed position.
Poly rolls are set to the closed position at the factory. To
move the rolls to the open position, the outside bearings
must be rotated backwards and fastened into the new bolt
holes. On the 8R28/30 and 12R22, the center bearing
holders must be adjusted by rotating the assembly up
and towards the rear of the machine and fastened in the
new hole (See Figure 32, Figure 33, and Figure 34).
The steel rolls leave the factory in the open position to
allow for more room for rocks to clear the rolls and are not
adjustable. The closed position does not allow enough
space for the rolls to
fl oat without hitting.
