Tension Arm Wear Channels

Check wear channels for groove depth every 5000 bales (every 2500 bales in sandy conditions).

causym CAUTION: To avoid injury or death caused by unexpected lowering of the gate, engage gate lock before working on, around, or under gate in raised position.

IMPORTANT: Excessive grooves worn into wear channel and tension arm will increase belt edge wear and may wear through tension arm.

To check for groove depth in wear channels:

1. Fully raise and lock gate.

2. If groove depth (A) exceeds specifications, repair or replace wear channels and tension arm. See your John Deere dealer.
