An adjusting device is provided with at least one adjusting means. At least the rollers of at least one roller group are mounted, on one side, in at least one side part which interacts with the adjusting means, such that actuation of the adjusting means can give rise to movement of the at least one roller group plane relative to a frame in which the root crop conveyor can be arranged. wherein the adjusting device pivots the roller group plane. The rollers of a roller group are connected to one another via a scissors mechanism.
