This is a heads up posting:
The single acting cylinder on my newly purchased,slightly used Krone wouldn't raise cutterbar 90 degrees. I disconnected cylinder from cutterbar and it still would fully retract. I disassembled cylinder to find breather plugged & oil on the backside of piston limiting piston travel. Cleaned out oil & breather,installed new seals and cutterbar now raises 90 degrees.
