German term or phrase: Strohhaube etc
A suggestion from a German farmer on how to improve a fault with his tractor:
Rücklichte an Strohhaube um 5 cm erhöhen wegen Häckselstrohleitbleche (verdeckt)
I am struggling with the meaning of 'Strohhaube' and 'Häckselstrohleitbleche' in particular.

Explanation:
Häckselstrohleitbleche
= straw chopper guiding plates [baffle plates]


Leitblech n, Führungsblech n / guiding plate
Leitblech n, Umlenkplatte, -scheibe f / baffle plate

Häcksel pl / chaff, chopped straw
häckseln (Landw) / chop v

See the URL below for straw chopper - about 3,700 or so hits.

Nothing at all on Strohhaube - only one hit - I suspect it is some sort of a protective cover that prevents the straw (maybe also the chopped straw) from getting into those parts of the tractor where it could do damage.

Hope this helps somewhat.
