I posted this in the implement alley forum, but thought I'd try here as well.
I'm trying to line up the sections and guards on an International 990 mower conditioner after putting on a new knife assembly, new guards, and new wear plates. I've found that that there is too much clearance in places between the sections and guards (about 1/16 in.). I would think to get the correct scissors action the clearance should be less.
So, do I need to shim the guards to close the gap with the section? Or does the cutter bar that everything mounts to need to be straightened somehow?
The operator's manual wants a 0.008 in. clearance between the hold down clips and the sections, so I don't want to pound the clips down and cause binding. The guards are forged and don't take readily to pounding for doing any adjustment.
