Figure 4.139: Cutterbar Spindles
IMPORTANT:
•
Spindles that rotate clockwise have right-leading threading
and a smooth top on spindle gear shaft (A).
•
Spindles that rotate counterclockwise have left-leading
threading and machined grooves on spindle gear shaft (B)
and nut (C).
•
If a spindle
’
s position in the cutterbar has changed, the
rotational direction of that spindle
MUST
remain the same
(that is, a clockwise spindle must maintain its clockwise
rotation).
•
Failure to maintain a proper rotation pattern can result in
damage to the spindle and/or cutterbar components.
