TINE CONDITIONER
Mode of operation
The aim of conditioning is to ream the wax layer (protection layer) on the blade of grass. Consequently, the fodder looses
moisture more easily and dries more quickly. Conditioning is carried out using V-shaped tines, placed in a spiral on the
conditioner shaft. The intensity is adjusted via a impact plate with conditioner rails.
Warning!

Setting the conditioning effect:
The distance between the adjusting strip and the rotor is
set using lever (1).

surface is strongly reamed. However, the fodder must
not be beaten.
- Position (0): the fodder surface is reamed only slightly.

The right setting depends on the quantity of the cuttings,
driving speed and tractor capacity among other things.
Therefore, we cannot provide a binding recommendation
regarding the correct lever setting.
