Enorossi DR420

Hi,
Have an Enorossi DR420 but won’t rake clean to Left side or down the centre either. Left rotor tines raising too early on rotation before wheel and dropping too soon at back. Tried all 3 positions on cam and no good. Any ideas anyone?

There's something badly wrong there. I don't know that or the weaving, but used an NH 254 back in the day. It looks like the cam is in the wrong place. It needs to be about 180' round from centre raking, at the left side somewhere. Have a good look underneath for another notch.

Or does it just need dropping down at that side?

Taken from our quick start guide, the Settings for raking to the left should be:

Left cam track - first slot from left
Right cam track - first slot from the left
Gearbox lever to right
Extra time arms in left rotor
Set machine angle accordingly

You’re welcome to message me if you need more assistance, if I can’t help I’ll see if I can get hold of one of my colleagues who knows the machine better than myself.

I’d like to hear from someone who operates an Enorossi DR420 as a rake. The cam is in the right position but the tines are bending away on front before they reach the tires so not clearing. Also in the rotation the tines are catching the swarth on the back as they coming down too soon. The same thing happening on centre rowing.

Is it possible for the crank that fits into the cam to be the wrong way round ie leading rather than following the arm or vice versa? Compare with the other rotor when centre raking. Long shot...

Dropped it and tried all 3 positions on cam (including the correct one) but the problem is the tines angling away before the tire. Heavy crop means the tines are dropping it in front of tire and not pitching it anywhere near swarth guard..

You mean the rollers? They following on both rotors as per manual.

Yeah, that was my thought. I was imagining that something would need swapped when the rotor changed direction so that they were still following. Got a picture underneath?

Did it ever work?
If not, it is possible it has been assembled incorrectly, with the cam track in the wrong position.

If it did work before, then has to be a setting or adjustment that changes from raking to tedding, or centre to side delivery.
We once had a haybob that had the two rotors fitted the wrong way round.
it worked, but broke A lot of tines and noted wear marks on the rotor that looked wrong.
After studying a while, noticed the rotors were wrong. Swapped them around and all good.

i bought it secondhand but it had very little work done. I suspect the cam position setting piece or rotors are wrong but can’t figure out how to change Or if rotors are wrong..it or if possible even to change them around..

Looking at it

To side rake you need to have the rotors angled but closer together so the lh rotor picks up the little row made by the rh rotor.

To centre row you need to have the rotors futher apart but not angled ie perpendicular to the direction of travel.

Side raking will need the spare set of tine arms ,that you don't use for tedding or centre raking.

It needs to be straight, not angled like you have it, also need to be flat
View attachment 971815
like above, but with the cams set for for rowing not spreading
For raking out to left it needs to be angled. I have set cams and angle as per instructions but the tines on the rotor (on right in pic or left from back) are rising before the tire so not raking clean as per earlier pic.

Thanks CJ but that doesn’t solve my problem as explained earlier. The tines on left rotor (from back) are rising before raking in front of tire, and not pitching anything out..

Where did you buy it from? Dealer or private? New/used?
