8 operating hours.
Adjustment of Knife Guiding Devices
l At intervals of 25 operating hours
check the pressure of the pivot arms
(approx. 150 N), using a conventional
spring balance
l To increase or adjust the pressure of
the pivot arms:
– Loosen the 2 attachment bolts (7) on
the bearing parts
– Adjust the pressure to approx. 150 N
by turning the set screws (8). Then reat-
tach the 2 adjustment bolts (7).
– Each time you have loosened the bolts
(7) ensure that the bearing part (9) is at
right angles to the cutter bar (5).
– Ensure also that the tips of the knife
blades protrude 4mm to 5mm from the
blades of the cutter bar in middle posi-
tion.
l Replace the driver pin (4) or its sleeve
(3), if the play between these two parts
is greater than 2mm or if the sleeve (3)
touches the pin rest (2).
l When fitting new clamping sleeves
(10) ensure that the slots point out-
wards.
