A - Lock Nut
B - Float Spring Setting Dimension
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 is needed if:
-
Operating at pickup tooth-to-ground clearance above 50 mm (2
in) with spindles in the normal position.
-
The baler has been lowered at the wheel spindles to improve
feeding. (See Bale Short, Dry, Slick Crops in Operating the Baler
section.)
Less spring force is needed if:
-
The pickup does not lower to desired operating height.
-
The pickup bounces too much and leaves crop.
-
The baler has been raised at the wheel spindles to improve feeding.
(See Bale Cornstalks in Operating the Baler section.)
