5.6 Sharpening Device C3000
To obtain an optimum chopping quality use the sharpening device several times
a day.
Working with the Sharpening Device
Start chopper; PTO with 580 rpm;
header is out of work!
The disc must revolve when sharpening;
eventually the revolutions of the tractor
must be increased until sparks fly.
open sharpening stone protector
Release security bolt of sharpening
device.
Move the sharpening disc carefully
towards the blades. After contact has
been made between blade and
sharpener, turn the rear star handle a
further ¼ turn.
After this adjustment, the shaft of the
sharpening disc is prevented from
moving further against the blade by the
star handle on the side.
Note: The sharpening disc is harder
with increased revolutions and softer
with reduced revolutions. If the
sharpening disc seems to be too hard it
is because of the high number of
revolutions of the blade wheel. Too
hard: reduce revolutions Too soft:
increase revolutions With too many
revolutions there will be a smooth and
shiny sharpening disc surface. With a
lower number of revolutions, the disc will
have a good grip. If this does not
happen immediately, the contact
pressure should be increased for a short
while. It is often enough to slightly score
the wheel with a flex.
After sharpening:
- turn back sharpening device
- fix it with lock bolt
- close protector
