5 - REPAIR PROCEDURES
CAUTION: All repair procedures must be done by authorized dealerships. It is not
recommended that untrained individuals perform any repair work. The following
operations are detailed for qualified personnel only.
5.01 - Rotor Timing
The rotor gears are timed at the factory and should not need to be serviced or re-timed.
If, however, something happens that causes the gears to come out of time, follow the
steps below to adjust timing:
1. On the gearbox of the rotor you are adjusting, loosen the bolts enough so that the
gears are no longer meshing.
2. Turn the rotor until the tine arms on the rotor you are adjusting turn exactly in
between the tine arms of the rotor next to it.
3. Once timing is adjusted and all tine arms mesh properly, tighten bolts on the
gearbox.
If it is necessary to replace any part on the inside of the gearbox, it is important to
replace oil seals or gaskets to ensure a tight fit when reassembling.
5.02 - Tine Replacement
Worn, broken or missing tines should be replaced as soon as possible to prevent
damage to the tedder.
