Parallel Bedknife to Reel (Fig. 6, 7, 8)
(Floating or Fixed Cutting Units)
1. Make sure reel contact is removed by turning bed-
knife adjustment knob counterclockwise. Tip cutting unit
to gain access to reel and bedknife.
2. On either end of reel, insert a long strip of dry
newspaper between reel and bedknife. While slowly
rotating reel into bedknife, turn bedknife adjusting knob
clockwise, one click at a time until paper is pinched
lightly, which results in a slight drag when paper is
pulled.
3. Check for light contact at other end of reel using
paper. If light contact is not evident, proceed to next
step.
4. Loosen (2) carriage bolts on bedbar adjuster.
5. Adjust nuts to move bedbar adjuster up or down until
paper is pinched along entire bedknife surface, when
bedknife adjustment knob is adjusted to no more than
two clicks beyond first contact of reel bedknife.
6. Tighten nuts and carriage bolts and verify adjustment.
