Didn't realize it was Tuesday, I normally post these on Monday
Well here's pg 2 of the test from jan 30,1957

6.    Incoming material is controlled. To within:

          ( ) a. 2 inches of the shear bar.

          ( ) b. 6 inches of the knives.

          ( ) c. 4 inches of the shear bar.

7.    Most competitive forage harvesters have:

          ( ) a. No means for protecting cylinder such as we have.

          ( ) b. narrow throats that don't need any means of protecting cylinder.

          ( ) c. Much simpler, more effective system of protecting cylinder then we have.

8.    The flywheel type of cutter has a:

          ( ) a. Variable cutting edge speed, but vary little deflection compared to the AC.

          ( ) b. constant cutting edge speed, with greater deflection than in the AC.

          ( ) c. Variable cutting edge speed, with greater deflection than in the AC.

9.    One of the "built-in" reasons for more power requirements in a flywheel type is:

          ( ) a. Knives cut, but don't deliver material- need blower paddles too.

          ( ) b. knives both cut and throw material.

          ( ) c. Material comes into machine in a wide, thin stream.

10.    The lawn mower type cutter:

          ( ) a. Uses the same cylinder principle of design as the AC.

          ( ) b. is very similar to the flywheel type.

          ( ) c. is completely different in every way from either of the other two types.

11.    One of the main disadvantages of the lawn mower type cutter is:

          ( ) a. The fact that it is so heavily built.

          ( ) b. The fact that it needs a blower or conveyor with it to deliver material.

          ( ) c. Knives can't be sharpened in the machine.

12.    The AC chopper cylinder:

          ( ) a. Lightweight for easy pulling.

          ( ) b. small in diameter, heavily built, with spiraled knives.

          ( ) c. 3- foot wide, big diameter and has a high deflection.


Hear you go enjoy
