INNER DEFLECTOR
Conditioning degree is governed by an inner deflector adjustable in 3 different positions (O) with lever (C). Each time
conditioning is readjusted do not forget to reinstall the two spring cotters (E) (photo 28 and figure 29).
- For maximum conditioning select the intermediate or lower position of deflector.
- For minimum conditioning when mowing leguminous crops, deflector can be adjusted in the highest position giving
the greatest distance between deflector and rotor fingers.
ADJUSTMENTS
BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY OPERATION SUCH AS MAINTENANCE OR ADJUSTMENT ON
THE MACHINE, STOP THE TRACTOR ENGINE, REMOVE IGNITION KEY AND WAIT FOR
ROTATING DISCS AND ROTOR TO STOP.
Cutting height
Maximum cutting height (80 mm / 3") (fig. 26) is achieved when the discs are parallel to the ground. Adjustment of
cutting height is achieved by altering the cutterbar tilt angle. This is effected by varying top link length (P) (photo
25) until desired cutting height is achieved. To minimize blade and disc wear, improve grass regrowth and get
maximum nutritive value from the crop, minimum cutting height should never be adjusted less than 30 mm
/ 1 1/4" (fig. 27).
A raised skid shoe kit (set no. 107 6100) available as an optional equipment provides a cutting height adjustable
between 60 mm and 120 mm (2.5" and 5") (see page 45).
