Adjusting Minimum Reel Height and Leveling Reel

IMPORTANT: Pickup Reel - A 38 mm (1-1/2 in.) minimum clearance between the tips of the reel fingers and cutterbar must be maintained. Clearances less than 38 mm (1-1/2 in.) will result in cut off reel fingers.

Slat Reel- Keep 38 mm (1-1/2 in.) minimum clearance between slats and cutterbar. Clearances less than 38 mm (1-1/2 in.) can result in damage to reel slat.

Steel Tine Reel - A 38 mm (1-1/2 in.) minimum clearance between the tips of the reel fingers and the cutterbar must be maintained. Clearances less than 38 mm 91-1/2 in.) can result in bent reel fingers and cutterbar damage.

NOTE: Adjust minimum reel height with lift cylinders fully retracted and fore/aft cylinders positioned so reel fingers are as close as possible to knife.

1. Loosen jam nut (A).

2. Use a wrench on flat spots (B) of the cylinder rod to raise and lower the reel. Insure both ends of reel are set equally.

3. Tighten jam nut.
