Figure 4.43: Interchangeable Cutterbar Discs
Cutterbar discs (A) are interchangeable and can be moved to a spindle that rotates in the opposite direction as long as the
disc is in usable condition and the blades are oriented to cut in the correct direction.
Perform daily inspections to ensure that cutterbar discs have not suffered damage from rocks, or experienced excessive
wear from abrasive working conditions.
The cutterbar discs are
NOT
repairable and must be replaced if severely damaged or worn.
IMPORTANT:
If holes appear in a cutterbar disc, replace the disc immediately. Do
NOT
attempt to repair the cutterbar discs. Always use
factory replacement parts.
