Straight Parallel
Swathing with
Curved Headlands
Use this pattern in an irregularly shaped field that is still worked in a
parallel straight pattern. The irregularly shaped boundary can be
recorded as a sprayed headland using curved headlands, so the
following straight parallel passes can be made with minimal overlap
into the headland zone.
The Light Bar will prompt you to Set B after you press ADD/STRT
when beginning the circuit, ignore this message. Continue to the end
of the circuit and press CLR/STOP. Then press Set A and resume
following Light Bar prompts to begin parallel swathing.
The Approach LED illuminates green when the unit is inside the
headland boundary. As the unit approaches the edge of the headland
boundary the Approach LED changes to orange within 1/2 swath width
of the sprayed headland edge and to red upon crossing the headland
edge.
NOTE: If you pass beyond the outer orange band in this mode, the
Approach LED changes back to Green (See Figure 15).
Pattern: Set to None.
Headland pattern: Set to Curved.
