6.1.2 Pickup Height Plates for corresponding bale size
The pickup is mounted on to the chassis by 2 vertical square posts that slide vertically in brackets on
the chassis. The height of the pickup is dictated by pins and plates inserted through holes in the 2
vertical square posts.
The correct height for the pickup is half way between the top of the bale and the top of the fully
lowered and retracted turntable. It follows that changing the height of the tractor drawbar will have
an effect on the pickup height, though different heights of bales will have a more considerable effect
on the pickup adjustment.
To adjust the pickup height, proceed as follows:
1. Stop the machine on level flat ground, in a straight line.
2. Switch off the control system and the PTO to prevent the machine from being able to move.
3. Raise the pickup up off the stop plates using the tractor spool.
Note : Flow rate wants to be approx. 20% of max flow.
4. Pull the R clips out of the pins and move the pins and plates to the holes in vertical legs to
achieve the position as described above.
a. NOTE : The plates have two sets of holes and are off-centre so inverting the plates
will give you a finer level of adjustment.
5. Return to the cab and lower the pickup onto the stop plates and put the spool in float.
Figure 54: Position of Pickup Height Plates to protect Pickup Lift Cylinder
NOTE: The plates CANNOT be proud of the top of the vertical legs (Figure 54). If the plates are proud
of the legs, the plates will cause damage to the pickup lift cylinders. If you’re picking up 1 .2x0.7m
bales, you’ll find the pickup frame can rest on the chassi s and remove the pickup height plates and
pins all together.
When entering and exiting gateways, you can raise the pickup off the stops to increase the ground
clearance of machine. This may be of particular use if you have the Pickup Shoe lower than the bottom
rail of the pickup (see 6.1.5 about for Pickup Shoe adjustment).
