6.13.4.2 Roll Timing

For proper conditioning, the rolls must be
properly timed with each steel bar on one roll
centered between two bars of the other roll as
shown. The factory setting should be suitable
for most crop conditions.

DANGER

Stop engine and remove key from ignition
before leaving operator's seat for any
reason. A child or even a pet could engage
an idling machine.

Check roll timing (distance ‘X’) as follows:

a. Lower header to ground, shut down tractor and

remove key.

b. Open RH drive shield.

c. Remove bolt (D) and nut, and remove gauge (E)

from inside panel at RH end of header.

d. Locate gauge at center of rolls as shown and

turn rolls to limits of gauge. Rolls will engage
the gauge if timing is correct.
