Adjusting Wheel Spindles-Baler with 2.00 m (6 ft 7 in.) and 2.20 m (7 ft 3 in.) HiFlow Pickup
CAUTION:
Always make sure that baler is securely supported by the jackstand before adjusting wheel spindles. Do not forget to block up wheel on opposite side.
Feeding difficulties may occur in extreme conditions such as brittle dry crops or large windrows. This problem can be solved by adjusting clearance between ground and machine according to crop conditions. Two wheel spindle positions are usable:
Positions 1 and 2
should not be used as this will result in too low pickup position.
Position 3
allows the machine to be lowered. This position is recommended when baling hay, alfalfa and silage.
Position 4
allows the machine to be raised. This position is recommended when baling straw.
