Abstract
Method and apparatus for fine-adjustment of moving part sequences in big square balers and, in particular, for adjusting the insertion point of the needle bar and the timing of the feeding mechanism for the baling material. The fine-adjustment is accomplished by pivoting an angle adjustment mechanism, which is jointly pivotable with an intermediate drive shaft, at a maximum pivot angle of 10 degrees, but preferably 2 to 3 degrees in either forward or backward pivot directions.
