Installing Cutterbar Spindles
Figure 4.34: Underside of Cutterbar Spindles
IMPORTANT:
Right discs (A) and left discs (B) are timed and must be at a 90 degree angle from adjacent discs when reinstalled.
Misaligned discs could result in the following:
• Discblades of co-rotating discs hitting each other
• Discblades of diverging discs hitting adjacent discs
Check clearance (timing) before tightening spindle to the cutterbar. Turn disc by hand to ensure discblades do not contact
each other or adjacent discs. If contact occurs or alignment is incorrect, lift spindle to clear mounting bolts, rotate spindle
180 degrees (ensuring that base does not turn), and reinstall. Recheck timing before bolting hub down and tightening all of
the nuts.
