Field Operation & Wrapper Adjustments
From time to time it may become necessary to carry out adjustments to the machine,
whether to improve machine performance or allow for general wear and tear. Such
adjustments are part of the machine design. The following chapter gives details of how
to go through the various adjustments. Some of these are field adjustments while
others will be performed during machine maintenance or initial set-up. All of these
adjustments should be checked thoroughly before the machine goes to work for the
first time.The wrapper should be parallel to the ground when working.
10.1 Drawbar height
The height of the drawbar may be adjusted to allow for the use with different balers and
tractors. To change the height go through the following procedure:
1. Remove 2x M20 nyloc nuts and the 2x M20
bolts holding hitch on.
2. Move hitch to new location.
3. Insert the 2x M20 bolts and tighten nyloc
nuts.
10.2 Drawbar length
It is necessary, when used on some balers, to
extend or shorten the drawbar. This may be
necessary to clear the baler when turning or to get
the bale to roll into the bale lift arm properly.
This may be set as follows:
1. Remove M16 nyloc nut holding drawbar
together and remove M16 bolt.
2. Slide inner drawbar into new position (do
not remove drawbar).
3. Insert the M16 bolt into its new position and tighten nyloc nut.
