6. Verify height of cut and level the front roller. 7. Verify reel-to-bedknife clearance. other bracket as a wrench to loosen or tighten bearing clearance to allow the roller to rotate freely and to eliminate bearing end play. Important If end play is excessive, seal failure may occur resulting in reduced bearing life. Important Thoroughly read both cutting unit and traction unit operator manuals. Failure to do so may result in damage to the cutting unit and/or poor performance. 6.
Adjusting the Bedknife Parallel to the Reel 1. 5. Remove the counter weights from the ends of the cutting units. 6. Loosen the two lock nuts securing the bedbar adjuster to the cutting unit side plate (Fig. 5). A 3/4 in. (19 mm) wrench will be needed to rotate the bedknife adjustment knob. Each notch on the knob will move the bedknife .013mm (Fig. 3). Make sure reel contact is removed by rotating the bedknife adjustment knob counterclockwise. 1 Figure 3 1. Bedknife adjusting knob 2.
2. Adjust the support cap screw to achieve 25mm ± 1.5mm dimension between the height-of-cut support and the front roller bracket (2 places) (Fig. 6). 6. Verify whether the rear roller is level by trying to insert a piece of paper under each end of the roller. The paper should not fit under the roller. 7. Level the roller by adjusting the appropriate support cap screw on the rear the roller supports until the roller is parallel and entire length of the roller contacts the table. 8.
4. Place the bar across the front and rear rollers and adjust the front roller support screws until the underside of the screw head engages the bedknife cutting edge (Fig. 7). Do this on both ends of reel. Make sure the rollers are free of debris and/or distortions on the roller surfaces. 5. Tighten the nuts securing the roller brackets. 6. Place the cutting unit on a flat surface and verify that the front and rear rollers contact the surface.
2. Slightly loosen the nut securing each rear roller bracket to the angle brackets. 3. Remove the hairpin cotters securing the rear height-of-cut pins and reinstall in the desired setting as indicated on the height-of-cut plate. 4. adjust the rear roller support screws until the underside of the screw head engages the bedknife cutting edge. Do this on both ends of reel. 5. Tighten the nuts securing the roller brackets. 6. Repeat this procedure on the remaining cutting units.

Operation edges will result after operation. If excessive contact is maintained, bedknife/reel wear will be accelerated, uneven wear can result, and quality of cut may be adversely affected. Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. Cutting Unit Characteristics Note: As the reel blades continue to run against the bedknife a slight burr will appear on the front cutting edge surface the full length of the bedknife.
the parking brake and remove the key from the ignition switch. Figure 13 Grease every 50 hours DANGER While backlapping, reels may stall and then not restart. Contact with the reel blades can cause personal injury or death. • Do not attempt to restart reels by hand or foot. • Do not adjust reels while the engine is running. • If the reel stalls, stop the engine before attempting to clear the reel. 1. 3. Make initial reel-to-bedknife adjustments appropriate for backlapping on all cutting units.
Single-Point Spring Adjustment If you remove the single-point adjustment assembly (Fig. 15) for servicing, make sure the spring is compressed, between washers, to a length of 22 mm. This adjustment is attained by tightening nut on the shaft of the single-point adjustment knob. Note: The single-point adjustment assembly has lefthanded threads. 3 1 Figure 15 1.
