ABSTRACT:
An adjustable hold down clip for use on apparatus using a reciprocating sickle, for maintaining the sickle in a stabilized, efficient shearing position relative to an underlying cutting surface by pivoting around a pivot member in response to the tightening or loosening of an adjustment nut which counteracts a lifting force imparted onto the clip by a tension member. The tension member is located between the pivot member and sickle, to provide lifting action away from the sickle and minimize drag on the reciprocating blade.
