HAY MAXX SYSTEM adjustments 
Basic HAY MAXX SYSTEM must be bolted in the fully extended upright position if not equipped with optional hydraulic cylinder.
HAY MAXX SYSTEM equipped with optional hydraulic cylinder can be adjusted with the clevis on the cylinder so that when the cylinder is fully extended the pan is in the upright position and when the cylinder is retracted the pan is completely down.
Adjusting the knife to pan tolerance may be necessary for different types of feedstuff. As hay may vary in quality, moisture and material, each of these can affect how it goes through the HAY MAXX system. The pan can be adjusted to up to 1” from the knife for a more aggressive faster take through and will greatly increase the power required to operate. The factory setting is at 1/2”- 5/8” and should never be adjusted to less than 1/2” apart or greater than 1”. Field testing shows that 1/2”
To adjust: loosen bolts, 3 in front & 2 at rear at the locations shown, make adjustment then securely tighten all five bolts.
