WARNING
Safety Guards may have been removed for clarity.
Do not operate the Harvester if safety guards are
missing or damaged. To do so could result in serious
personal injury.
4-inch Feed Roller
Roller ‘A’ helps in feeding the sod into the Starter Gate.
It should be kept free of grass and mud.
It is driven by the Mid-Idler Sprocket Shaft..
To adjust the Roller:
•
Place a piece of sod under the Roller. With the
Roller resting on the sod, adjust the Bump Stops
‘B’ to allow 1/8 inch clearance between the Bump
Stops and the Frame.
For weak, or thin turf, requiring less roller pressure,
adjust the Bump Stops
‘down’ , onto the frame
raising the Roller to reduce pressure on the turf.
Starter Tray
When the end of a slab of sod ‘ C ’ passes under Sensor
’D’, ( see note ), it signals the computer to :
•
count the number of teeth, (‘tooth count’), that the
operator has pre-set
•
‘stop’ the Roll Eject Mat, (that ejects the scrap roll
onto the Scrap Conveyor as the Index Conveyor
moves back).
NOTE:
Refer to page 3-18 for sensor calibration.
If the unit has a mechanical sod end sensor installed,
see page 3-18A for set-up and adjustment
Starter Tray Bars
‘E’ , behind the Starter Gates ‘ F ’, have
Pins ’ G ’ that protrude 1/4 in. below the Bar.
The pins grip the turf as it starts to ‘roll-up’.
If the turf passes through, but does not ‘roll-up’, tap
the pins
‘IN’ until they protrude 1/2 to 5/8 in.
The pins wear with use and must be adjusted or re-
placed as required.
In tender sod the pins may hold the underside of the
sod too long, causing a loose roll, incorrect roll flap
position, partially rolled or ‘incomplete’ rolls, in this
case the pins should be ‘raised’.
Trial will determine the best pin positions.
•
Maintain 4 to 6 inches between the sod pieces
•
Do not allow dirt to build up on the Conveyor,
it will cause the Starter Gate to open early.
Double Starter Gates.
The Starter Gates ‘F’ must be positioned approximately
1/8 inch clear of the Conveyor Mat, measure at the join
‘splice’ in the Mat, ie.
its thickest point.
Gate clearances are set with the adjustable straps ‘H’. The
Gate must not touch the mat.
The Starter Gate Stops ‘J’, prevent the bottom edge of the
Gates lifting higher than the top face of the Bars ’ E ’.
