A - Vine Cutter Knives (2 used)

• The crop divider scrolls can untangle and pick up the downed cane. When operating too fast, the cane can break and bend, causing it to hang up on the crop divider. This causes damage to billets and stubble.
• Operating too fast pulls whole stalks out from row being harvested or from the next row. Pulling whole stalks from the row brings roots and dirt into the harvester, detracting from the cleaning process.
• Always raise to the transport position when backing up the harvester. This prevents the crop divider shoes from digging into the ground.
• The tilt of the crop divider can be changed manually or hydraulically. The hydraulic option allows the operator to adjust the tilt from the cab to adapt to different cane conditions in the field.
• Crop dividers are equipped with both inner and outer scrolls. Outer Scrolls rotate in opposite direction of inner scrolls to push cane of adjacent row away from the machine.
• Hydraulically adjustable height side knives (if equipped) are recommended for lodged cane. Side knives cut lodged cane when it is being raised and separated to prevent pulling stalks from the ground.
• Crop divider vine cutter knives (A), if equipped, prevent vines from wrapping around the crop dividers.
