Further Adjustments
Spring Tension
All springs should be adjusted so that there is
just sufficient tension to hold the parts they
control at the ‘at rest’ position.
Adjust springs by releasing the chain from the
end of the hook bolt and relocating in an
alternative link, Fig 21.
Rear Gate Delay
Rear Gate release can be altered by adjustment
of the Trip Rod screw, Fig 22.
Increasing the screw length increases the delay
on the Rear Gate release.
Turning Arm End Deflector
The Turning Arm End Deflector, Fig 23, is
slotted to provide angular adjustment to the
turning arm.
Ideally the turning arm should take up a
position slightly ‘off parallel’ with the sides of
the accumulator when the first bale is in place,
thus providing the correct angle to accept the
second bale, see Fig 24.
Note that in Fig 24 - distance
A
should be
slightly narrower than distance
B
when the
first bale is in position.
The same applies for the left hand arm.
