OPERATION

REEL SPEED

For best feeding of crop into the sickle and auger,

reel speed should be just faster than ground

speed. This gently sweeps crop across sickle into

auger. Excessive reel speed causes undue wear

of reel components and unnecessary load on reel

drive, resulting in uneven reel motion.

control in cab.

NOTE: Both speed control knobs on tractor

console are used to adjust reel speed.
