Changing Rotor Speed (1355 and 1365 Only)1

Conditioning intensity can be adjusted by changing the rotor speed. Two rotor speeds are possible, depending on position of sheaves.

Position I: High speed 870 rpm. Maximum conditioning effect to be used for grass. (Machines are delivered from the factory in this position).

Position II: Low speed 630 rpm. Minimum conditioning effect to be used for legumes.

To modify rotor speed, proceed as follows:

1. Remove rotor belt (see "Replacing Drive Belt" in "Service" Section).

IMPORTANT: Note how many washers are installed on each shaft. The same number must be reinstalled to obtain original (factory) adjustment.

2. Remove cotter pin (A), screw (B) and washers located outside sheaves (C).

3. Exchange the sheaves, then reinstall washers, cotter pin and screw in original positions.

4. Reinstall rotor belt (see "Installing New Belt" in "Service" Section).

5. Check for proper belt tension (see "Adjusting Belt Tension" in "Service" Section).

NOTE: For characteristics of good conditioning effect, see "Checking Conditioning Effect" in this Section.
