[QUOTE="hayray, post: 1437079, member: 3046"] I agree with adjusting the spring tension on the crimper rolls if the conditioning ability seems to change with the volume of material. Also, I am sure the manual will describe a gap and also a visual test on the percent of stems that should show a crimp. I know on my New Holland that I actually had to adjust the gap down more then what the manual was stating in order to get the crimp required and it did make a lot of difference. You just need to make sure that the rollers don't end up touching because that causes vibration and damage. There is a test that some use aluminum foil pushed through the rollers by hand, I think you twist the foil into strips. Dan Undersander, University of Wisconsin has a article about proper adjustment and research on dry down with mower adjustment. [/QUOTE]
