4. The tension between the blade and the tooth is set
by adjusting the blade holders (described below).
NOTE
The tension must be snug enough for clean cut-
ting action, but should not freeze or bind the blade
against the tooth comb.
b) Blade holder adjustment for all sickle cutter bars
Loosen the lock nut A (5c). Adjust the tension screw
B until the blade slides freely between the tooth and
blade holder without excessive slack.
When the adjustment produces the best motion with-
out binding, tighten the lock nut A.
Two types of blade holders are available:
COMBO CUTTER BAR (fig.5a)
SICKLE CUTTER BAR (fig.5c)
a) Blade holder adjustment for COMBO cutter bar
Loosen the upper lock nut A (5a). Adjust the tension
screw B until the blade slides freely between the
tooth and blade holder without excessive slack.
When the adjustment produces the best motion with-
out binding, tighten the upper lock nut A.
