19.1 Optimising Crop Flow
How front attachment speed depends on chop length
If the front attachment speed is too low, it may be that the feed drive rollers are pulling the crops
in clumps from the front attachment and the crop flow is being severed.
The front attachment speeds depend to a great extent on e.g.: Crops, driving speed, crop mass,
degree of maturity of the crop. The speed should be set so that the crop flow is homogeneous.
If the speed of the EasyCollect is too high in maize mode, blockages will occur.
