OPERATION
Adjusting Reel Only Speed
The A40 reel drive is hydraulically driven. Adjusting reel speed also changes auger speed, unless the auger speed
is initially set at a predetermined value. The following procedure sets the auger speed so that subsequent reel
speed adjustments will only affect the reel.
