  To correct irregular stubble when using Vicon Farm Equipment, several factors should be checked. Ensure that the blades are not dull or bent by reversing or replacing them. Increase the PTO speed to 540 if it's too low, or slow down if the forward speed is too high. Also, verify that the blades are mounted in the correct rotating direction. If long material is wrapping around the drums, check the PTO rpm. Finally, consider fitting the wide inserts.

  If your Vicon Farm Equipment machine is consuming too much power, check the temperature of the boxes and cutter bar, as the oil level may be too high in the cutter bar or gearboxes. Also, check for and remove any rope coiled around the bearing house under the disc, and reduce driving speed if it's too high.

  If the manual disc rotation runs stiffly on your Vicon Farm Equipment, it could be due to several reasons. The disc guard might be bent upward too steeply, causing the disc to jam; return the disc guard to its correct position. Also, check for and remove any dirt or rope under the discs. Finally, ensure the knife bolt is mounted correctly.

Why mowing unit wil not lift in a horizontal way on Vicon KM 3200?
- M
  Melissa WilliamsSep 9, 2025
  If the mowing unit will not lift horizontally on your Vicon Farm Equipment, the ground pressure setting may be unequal on either side. Adjust the springs until the ground pressure is equal. Also, the long coupling shaft may have too high sliding resistance on the LH side of the mowing unit due to dry tubes; grease the tubes of the long coupling shaft.
