INSTALLATION OF THE ROTARY CORN
ATTACHMENT ON THE DION FORAGE
HARVESTER
NOTE:
Refer to the Forage Harvester operator’s
manual for brands other than Dion.
NOTE:
Always remove tension on balancing springs
before installing or removing attachment from
Forage Harvester.
Make sure the Forage Harvester and the rotary corn
attachment are standing on a flat terrain.
The rotary corn attachment is equipped with a support
(figure 11) to lift attachment up for proper installation.
The minimum lifting load must be 2000 lbs (900 Kg).
1. Attach a chain to the lift support (figure 11).
2. Measure the corn attachment opening (figure 12)
and adjust if necessary.
IMPORTANT: If the throat sides on the attachment
are bent or damaged, it is necessary to repair
them so they will not come in contact with the
feed rolls
3. Slowly move the Forage Harvester toward the at-
tachment (figure 13), making sure it is well centered
with respect to the connecting pins.
4.
Align and adjust the attachment throat sides
between the Forage Harvester sides and the feed
rolls (figure 14).
5. When the attachment is set in place on the Forage
Harvester, put the square lock pins and the safety
pins back in place (figures 15 and 16). It will be
necessary to install two floating springs and to move
the bracket in the middle lifting hole.
6. Adjust both balancing springs (figure 17). The
purpose of the balancing springs is to counterbalance
the weight of the attachment either to slightly
touch the ground or ease the attachment hydraulic
lifting to avoid possible obstacles in the field. The
tension of these springs must be adjusted to obtain
approximately 80-100 lbs (36-45 Kg) at the end of
the fingers.
