Adjusting 2.20 m (7 ft 3 in.) HiFlow Pickup Drive Chains

To ensure that all slack is removed from chains, close gate and engage PTO a few seconds. Shut off tractor engine.

Adjust tension of pickup drive chains as follows:

Main Drive Chain (B)

If spring coils (A) are jointed together, remove one link from drive chain (B).

Staggered packer drive chain (D)

Tighten or loosen tensioner adjusting nut (C) so that chain deflection to the opposite strand of idler (I) is about 7 mm (0.27 in.).

Pickup cylinder drive chain (E)

Loosen the idler mounting screw.

Press idler (F) against chain so that chain deflection to the opposite strand of idler is about 10 mm (0.39 in.)

Tighten the idler mounting screw.

Right hand auger drive chain (H)

If spring coils (G) are jointed together, remove one link from drive chain (H).

Left hand auger drive chain (K)

Loosen the idler mounting screw.

Press idler (J) against chain so that chain deflection to the opposite strand of idler is about 10 mm (0.39 in.)

Tighten the idler mounting screw.
