BAR ADJUSTMENT
The header is equipped with a pair of upper and
lower stripper bars.
DANGER : Lower header to the
ground or engage feeder house
locks, shut-off combine, remove
ignition key, and wait for parts to stop moving
before performing this adjustment
Upper and Lower Stripper Bars
The clearance between the auger and
stripper bars is set at the factory to a
minimum of 2mm (3/32 inch). Minimizing
the clearance of the auger and stripper bar
can reduce crop carry over.
The upper stripper bar bolts are accessible
from the top of the header.
A maximum reach of 16mm (5/8inch) can
be accomplished by using the slotted holes
in the upper stripper bar bracket and bar. If
more clearance is desired, see Auger
Forward/ Rearward Adjustment.
ATTENTION : If the auger comes in
contact with the stripper bar excessive
wear will occur. Disconnect the driveshaft
from combine and rotate auger by hand
to find the minimum clearance, than
complete all adjustments from that point.
