[QUOTE="Bez>, post: 401628, member: 6007"] I slacked ours off untill it had about a two inch gap between the steel and the rubber roller - it allowed me to put some timothy through the system last week that was to be used in a hay quality competition - no bruising of the heads was the main requirement. The springs were slacked off to the rollers allowing them to separate with less pressure - the results were quite satisfacory. As for skids. there are several types - you can go with OEM or with a jobber. We have our discbine set up with OEM rock guards and a jobber 2 inch rise skid plate - while we can adjust the tilt for the cut height , we cannot adjust some fo the rocks where we cut - so I went with the 2 inch skid plate under the rock guards. I have seen skid plates as high as 4 inches. In event it matters I use a Case 8312 discbine. In fact to change for more aggressive crimping I am about to help a neighbour change a top roll from rubber to steel today. Bez> [/QUOTE]
