A - Lock Nut

B - Mounting Bracket

To improve feeding, the compressor rack may be adjusted up or down.

  1. Loosen lock nut (A).

  2. Make sure compressor rods do not interfere with twine arms. Adjust individual rods, as necessary, for clearance.

    Adjust rack to desired height.

    For an initial height setting, adjust compressor rack strap parallel to edge of mounting bracket (B).

  3. Tighten lock nut (A).

Belt damage may occur if crop is allowed to build up on top of compressor rack.

In short, dry, slick crops it may be necessary to remove compressor rods or compressor rack, if material builds up on top of rods. (See REMOVING COMPRESSOR RACK ASSEMBLY in this section.)

Reinstall compressor rack or compressor rods when buildup conditions cease or when returning to bale hay crops.
