Steel Rolls
Under most crop conditions, maintain a gap of 5 -- 7
mm (3/16 -- 1/4 in) at the closest point.
NOTE: In certain cane-type crops like Sorghum,
Sudex or Sudan grass, it may be necessary to
increase the roll gap in order to feed the crop through
the rolls and/or prevent over-conditioning of the
stalks.

at all times to prevent excessive slipping. A loose belt
