Access Main Cutter Bar Bearing

What happens here

To access the final bolt securing the main drive mechanism, a protective cover needs to be removed. Use the DeWalt impact driver with the 13mm socket to take off the bolts holding this cover. Once the cover is off, the internal PTO (Power Take-Off) drive wheel is exposed. This wheel needs to be slightly rotated to align the access hole, allowing a bolt that secures the main cutter bar assembly to be reached. This prevents the PTO shaft from being in a bind and makes removal easier. This cover is mostly for debris and hands, and doesn't need to be fully removed, just pivoted out of the way.
