9.3 Pick-up reel height adjustment

and at the optimum working height with the pick-up tines being 2 cm above the ground.
Pick-up reel height adjustment
NOTE: Ensure the spool control lever is in the float position
When baling with this machine ensure that the control lever for the spool
operating the pick-up reel height adjustment is in the float position. If the
lever is not in the float position then the reel will be fixed in a set position
and will be unable to follow the ground contour.
NOTE: Wear and tear of pick-up tines
Working with the pick-up tines set too low will leave them susceptible to
breakage and rapid wear!
