Operation mode
The aim of conditioning is to ream the wax layer (protection layer) from the blade of grass. Consequently, the fodder
looses moisture more easily and dries more quickly. Conditioning is carried out using V-shaped tines, placed in a spiral
on the conditioner shaft. The intensity is adjusted via an impact plate with conditioner rails.
Designations:
(1) adjustable swath board
(2) Intensity adjustment unit
(3) Tine rotor
(4) Propeller unit
(5) Support leg

General safety information
DANGER
Life-threatening danger exists through being drawn
in by rotating parts.
•
Never open or remove the safety devices as
long as the engine is running or parts are
moving.
Possible settings
For optimal adaptation to the surrounding conditions, make
the following adjustments to the tine conditioner:
Set the conditioning effect:
The distance between the adjusting strip and the rotor is
set using lever (1).
- Position (3): the most effective conditioning. The fodder
surface is strongly reamed. However, the fodder must
not be beaten.
- Position (0): the fodder surface is only lightly reamed.

Among other things, the right setting depends on the
quantity of cut material, driving speed and tractor capacity.
Therefore, a binding recommendation cannot be provided
regarding the correct lever setting.
