Adjusting Wheel Spindles-Baler with 2.00 m (6 ft 7 in.) Rotary Feeder Device

causym 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 whenever feeding difficulties occur in short, dry, slick crops.

When baler is equipped with 500/45 - 22.5 tires, only this position must be used.

Position 4 is the normal position, factory adjusted.

When baler is equipped with 500/50 - 17 tires, only this position must be used.

For baler equipped with wheel nuts, tighten the wheel spindle bolts to the following specifications:

For baler equipped with wheel bolts, tighten the wheel spindle bolts to the following specifications:
