Replacing conditioner’s tines
(For models: KDDR S/SL)
Each time before operation, check condition of bolts, on which flails are set, as well as
condition of flails themselves. When inspecting also not the condition of rubbers where flails are
mounted
(applicable
to
shafts
with
rubber
flail
mountings).
If flails or bolts or rubbers are worn or damaged, replace them.
Bear in mind, that flails should be
replaced in pairs (opposite) of the same weight in order to keep the shaft well balanced.
Failure to keep the shaft well balanced may lead to premature wear of bearings as well as the shaft
itself.
In order to remove a flail release the nut with a wrench, remove the bolt, and the flail – in case
of mowers equipped with a light-weight conditioner remove the flail rubber pad also
(
Fig. 37b
). Installation of a new flail is performed in the reverse order, when tightening the nut
apply an adequate torque (
Tab. 4
).
