3. REMOVING THE COMB

Remove screw (2) securing the comb to the adjusting lever. Slide the lever (3) in
direction indicated by arrow. Remove the comb (4) and turn it over (photo 30).
Reassembly of the comb is a direct reversal of the aforementioned procedure.
RECOMMENDED SETTINGS AND OPERATION
Select the correct side of the comb for the particular crop. Make a short test run
with the comb in position 5 (maximum effect), check the result for correct
conditioning without excessive damage. If this is not the case, select another
position until the correct conditioning is achieved.
- Grass : the heads should not be separated, the stalks should be bruised but not
cut.
- Mixed grass and clover : bruising should be confined to the stalks. When cutting
takes place after the flower appears, the loss of the flowers should be kept to a
minimum.
- General rules : when cutting early in the day and requiring a moisture content
of 35% - 64% for silage barn drying, a severe conditioning effect can be used and
leaf losses will only be 2 - 4%.
