–
Check if the swath is appropriate.
–
Deviations can be annulled by switching on the
hydraulics with twoway-working cilinders and
enlarging or shortening the distance between the
rotors.
–
Adapt the swath width to fodder
quantity:
–
Much fodder = big deviation
–
Few fodder = no deviation needed
–
Adapt the driving speed to the working
picture = clean swathing if the swath is
well formed.

3.5 Adjusting the steering curve

To adjust the steering curve correctly follow the
next steps:
–
Loosen the screw (1).
–
Set the lever (2):
Right rotor
a) to the right (in driving direction) = spring tines
lift later (in case of turning the swaths or fresh
fodder);
b) to the left (in driving direction) = spring tines
lift earlier (in case of swathing or dry fodder).
Left rotor
c) to the left (in driving direction) = spring tines
lift later (in case of turning the swaths or fresh
fodder);
d) to the right (in driving direction) = spring tines
lift earlier (in case of swathing or dry fodder).
–
After the shift fix the lever (2) with the screw (1)
again.
– Clean swathing is achieved with the
correct steering curve adjustment.

3.6 Preparing the swather for transport

The swather can be transported in high transport
position or lowered transport position.
The rotors are lifted with the oneway-working pull-
cylinder hydraulics into the transport position or
lowered into working position.
The twoway-working cylinder hydraulics enables
telescopic folding of the rotor holder, to lower the
transport height when transporting.
