Raking height adjustment
CAUTION!
It is forbidden to lower raking arms below 1 cm from the ground as this may
cause damages to the machine such as bending the raking arms, breaking the
linkage or the gear, faster wearing of raking tines, damaging the turf and causing
contamination to the collected forage, etc. Too high a raking set may cause the
swath not be collected completely.
CAUTION!
The raking arms' height should be controlled on an on-going basis while
operating the machine, and if need be, adjusted. Adjustments are performed
with tractor's drive off.
