Working principle of silage chopper
When the forage harvester for sale is working, the blade will rotate at high speed. The straw at the feeding port will be sucked into the casing. At the same time, the stalk is cut by the blade.
The stalk will then be sheared multiple times due to the folded line-shaped inner wall of the casing. Then, the crushed straw will be transported out by the fan. If you are equipped with a collection hopper, it can be directly transported into it.
Small silage chopper’s structure
Small silage chopper mainly includes a cover, frame, suspension, gearbox assembly, big tensioning wheel, fan, transition sprocket, inlet tube, screw, liquid gap, ground wheel, outlet tube, etc.
How to operate the forage harvester for sale?
1. Adjusting Working Height:
When working, the straw harvester should be adjusted to a height of 20-50 cm from the ground.
2. Avoiding Soil Contact:
It is forbidden to hit the soil. If this happens, you should adjust the height of your backswing.
3. Ensuring Outlet Clearance:
Always observe whether the outlet of the straw is unblocked. If there is no suction pipe thrown out of the air outlet, stop immediately and check whether the fan is blocked.
4. Lifting during Turns:
The straw harvester should be lifted when turning and put down after turning.
5. Addressing Abnormal Noises:
If you hear abnormal noise during the operation, stop the operation immediately, and continue to operate after everything is normal.
