REPAIRS TO THE CUTTER BAR
A.1 Cutter bar assembly/disassembly
The figures placed between brackets correspond with the numerals in figure A-1.
The cutter bar is built up of independent units (1). These mower elements are kept apart by intermediate spacers (2). The
units and spacers are kept together by a connecting rod (3).
The cutting units are driven from the drive element (4) by a drive shaft (5).
Thanks to the modular design, mower elements can be replaced quickly, as can the drive shaft. If so required, the sequnce
of elements with LH and RH rotation can be changed in the SPLENDIMO mower with "S" type mower discs.
