6.2.2 Height of the Needles on the Knotter
To set the height of the needles on entry into the knot-
ter, the needle yoke is turned upwards at the flywheel
mass after manually initating the binding process. It is
turned up in the working direction until the rollers in the
needle tips are above the cleaning disc on the carrier (2).
The distance "a" from the lower edges of the needle rol-
lers to the upper edge of the cleaning disk must be 1 to
3 mm. This setting can be corrected with screw (7) after
screw (6) has been undone. Always make sure that the
screws are all tightened up firmly again after making the
adjustment.
6.2.3 Needles' Upper Dead Centre
The needle yoke is set in motion by the needle drive
connecting rod (3) after the binding process has been
initiated. To be able to check the needles' dead centre,
turn the needle yoke up to its highest position (dead
centre). The needle drive connecting rod (3) and the
crank arm (1) should then be overlap each other. The
twine needles (4) project out of the knotter. The distance
"b" between the upper edge of the carrier disc (2) and
the midpoint of the roller in the needle tip must be at
least 85 mm. Should this setting be incorrect, it can be
corrected by shortening or lengthening the needle drive
connecting rod.
