Adjust Pickup Float Springs-MegaWide Pickup
Dimension (B) is an initial float spring setting for pickup tooth-to-ground clearance of 25-50 mm (1-2 in.) with wheel spindles in the normal position. (See WHEEL SPINDLE POSITIONS in Preparing the Baler section.)
More spring force will be needed if:
-
Operating at pickup tooth-to-ground clearance above 50 mm (2 in.) with spindles in the normal position.
-
In rocky conditions, to float over obstacles.
Less spring force will be needed if:
-
The pickup does not lower completely to desired operating height.
-
The pickup bounces too much and leaves crop.
