Draper Belt Speed

Draper Belt Speed controls the speeds of the side draper belts. Set belt speed for prevailing crop conditions and adjust for an even distribution of crop material across the side draper belts.

Increase Belt Speed When:

  • Heavy loading of side belts.
  • Heavy loading of material along sides of the center belt.
  • Excessive plugging of the feed drum and/or feeder house.
  • Crops pulled under platform by side draper belts.
  • Leaving standing uncut crop can result if too much material builds up on belts blocking the knife.

Decrease Belt Speed When:

  • Crops feeding under opposing side draper belt.
  • Slow belts to reduce shatter loss for long green straw/stems.
