All knives — adjust, flip or change as needed.

General condition of machine — Replace any parts in question with OEM Capello parts only.

Properly adjust these items to maximize performance during harvest.

Stripper plates — Stripper plates should have a 1/8" clearance between the blade and plate.

Gathering Chain — Gathering chains should be adjusted to have 3/4" play when pulled towards the center of the row unit.
