Checking Net Feed Roll Brake (Test 6)

IMPORTANT: Prior to this test, make sure that test 1 to 5 results are "OK". Proceed to the relevant tests described in this section.

IMPORTANT: The net feed roll brake adjustment must be performed before using the baler.

Proceed as follows:

1. Keep the net actuator retracted.

2. Release net feed roll brake lever (A).

3. Check that spring length (B) is within specification:

Specification

Spring -Length 20 mm (0.78 in.)

If necessary, adjust spring length (B) as follows:

a. Loosen the two lock nuts (C).

b. Turn bolt (D) clockwise to decrease or counterclockwise to increase spring length (B).

4. Apply net feed roll brake lever (A).

5. Check that resisting torque to turn rubber feed roll bolt (E) clockwise is within specification:

Specification

Sheave -Torque turn 70 N·m (51 lb-ft)

If resisting torque is less than specifications, adjust net feed roll brake as follows:

a. Release net feed roll brake lever (A).

b. Loosen nuts (H).

c. Transfer one or two shims (G) between rubber brake pad (I) and its support (F).

d. Tighten nuts (H).

e. Apply net feed roll brake lever (A).

f. Check that resisting torque to turn rubber feed roll is within specification:

Specification

Sheave -Torque turn 70 N·m (51 lb-ft)

If resisting torque is always less than specification, proceed as follows:

a. Release net feed roll brake lever (A).

b. Remove lock nuts (B).

c. Add one washer (D) between spring (E) and support (C).

d. Reinstall and tighten lock nuts (B).

e. Apply net feed roll brake lever (A).

f. Check resisting torque again.

Proceed to test 7.
