(under subclass 10.1) Machine provided with means for restoring a cutting blade or a vegetation-gathering member to its original or operative state of being.
(1) Note. This subclass provided for a harvester having means for sharpening a cutting blade or cleaning a cutting blade or picker member (e.g., a cotton-gathering spindle), or moistening such a picker member to remove the wisps of cotton not picked up by a cotton "doffer". The cleaning means is in addition to that means which strips the bulk of the cotton, or other crop, from the gathering members.
