Operating the Rotary Harvesting Unit -
General Use
Starting the Forage Harvester
Starting up the forage harvester, switching on the
cutterhead and rotary harvesting unit, and reversing
the feed rolls should always take place with the engine
running at idle speed (see forage harvester operator’s
manual for details). The rotary cutters do not move (due
to overrun devices).
Engage forward gear at idle speed only. This avoids
unnecessary wear on the clutches.
Operating the Rotary Harvesting Unit
Once the cutterhead is turning at the correct speed, and
the rotary cutters are at the appropriate speed, drive into
the standing crop.
Ground speed varies depending on the density of the crop,
crop type and the performance of the forage harvester.
For headland turns, maintain the rate of rotation. This
avoids unnecessary wear on the rotary harvesting unit
drive.
When changing forage wagon, keep the rotary harvesting
unit engaged. This avoids unnecessary wear on the rotary
harvesting unit drive.
Clear Blockages
CAUTION: Risk of serious injury! Never attempt
to clear blockages in the rotary harvesting unit
by hand while the unit is running. First shut off
the forage harvester's engine, and wait until all
moving parts have come to a stop.
During harvesting, most blockages can be cleared by
briefly reversing the gathering drums.
Clear Blockages on CLAAS Forage
Harvesters
When blockages occur, the gathering drums can be
stopped and then reversed.
To clear blockages:
•
Stop driving the machine.
•
Drive the forage harvester backwards a short distance.
•
Briefly press button (A) and wait until feeder and rotary
harvesting unit have stopped.
•
Press button (A) again and hold until the blockage is
cleared.
NOTE: The reversing process takes place as long
as button (A) is pressed.
