Settings: Cutterbar
The cutterbar is one
of the mostimportant
parts of the combine
harvester. It is designed
to cut and gather the
crop from the field.
TIP. Check the lifters everyday, if they are loose or bent remove and
replace them.
Dividers
The first part of the cutterbar to make contact with the crop are the dividers.
There are two types, a standard and a long divider.
TIP. To make the crop lie down, before the auger to aid the feed into the
centre of the cutterbar, move the table in or out.
TIP. Make sure that the height of the divider is set so it does not run on the
ground. Set the height the same as the stubble.
Lifters
It is recommended that lifters should be fitted to
CLAAS cutterbars. The lifters should be fitted
by placing the first one on the fifth finger from
the RHS of the cutterbar and then on every
fourth one thereafter.
