HARVESTER REEL ADJUSTING AND LOCKING MECHANISM ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A harvester reel adjusting and locking mechanisms for positioning the bearing carrier at each end of the reel axle at a selected distance along the support arm on which it is slidable. The carrier is provided wit holes which are capable of register with a series of closely spaced holes in the outer end region of the support arm. An operating tool having a vertical shank portion serves to lock the carrier in an adjusted position when such shank is projected through one of the holes in the carrier and a selected registering hole in the support arm. A radial displacement cam is disposed on the shank portion and is of such extent that when the shank portion is positioned in a hole immediately forwardly or rear- wardly of the carrier and then rotated through an angle of 180°, the carrier will be shifted in a forward or a rearward direction to a degree equal to the center-to-center distance between adjacent holes, after which the shank may be placed in the hole in the carrier and a registering hole in the support arm to lock the carrier in position. A lateral leg on the shank constitutes a lever by means of which torque may be applied to the shank for rotational purposes. By repeating the process, the carrier may be "walked" or indexed along the support arm in either a forward or a rearward direction.
