3) Once the first fork has been timed with the carriage as described above, it is possible to continue
with the timing of the second fork by connecting gear 1 and gear 2 by means of chain 3 (Fig. 7.6),
after having put the second fork crank parallel to the first fork crank (for the M60 Mini and M60
Mini/S), or perpendicular to the first fork crank (for the M60 Super) (see Fig. 7.6). For long and
tough products, it is recommended that the second fork be timed as indicated in section 7.6.2.

7.2.2 Timing of the knotter/needles with the carriage (B)
Timing of the knotter/needles with the carriage.
Once the forks/carriage timing has been done, the timing of the knotter/needle with the carriage can
be carried out as follows:
1) Make the gear 7 idle by removing the chain 1 (Fig. 7.7).
2) Put the needles in the rest position by bringing the needle holder arm 5 (Fig. 7.7) back to the end
of the stroke.
3) Engage the knotter by bringing the sector lever 4 (Fig. 7.7) to its maximum height by rotating the
bale star wheel spacer 6 (Fig. 7.7).
Then manually rotate the bell gear 3 (Fig. 7.7) counterclockwise, until it locks in the dragging
position of the knotter shaft.
4) Continue to rotate the bell gear 3 (Fig. 7.7) counterclockwise, moving it repeatedly with a series of
“
clicks
,”
until the needle holder arm is lowered so that the needle tips are level with the lower edge of
bale chamber (Fig. 7.7).
