Step Action
2 Use the RIGHT and LEFT ARROW keys to move the cursor under
the value you want to change.
Notes:
•
The cursor initially will be under the x ROW CUT value when
the # ROWS key is pressed.
•
When you change the number of head rows the cutting rows
value automatically jumps to the same number as the head rows.
The number of cutting rows can never go above the number of
head rows.
•
After the number of head rows is set, you should never have to
change it unless you change heads.
3 Use the top UP or DOWN ARROW keys to change the numbers.
Recommendations for Row Crop Heads:
•
For row crops, set your row space to the planted row spacing and your
number of rows to the number of total rows of your combine head.
Recommendations for Cutting Platform Heads:
•
Set the swath in the monitor to one foot less than the actual swath width
of the head because you can rarely maintain a constant full swath while
harvesting.
•
Set the monitor on a row space of 12 inches and a number of rows that
adds up to the correct swath.
Example: If your cutting platform head is 20 actual feet, set the
monitor’s swath to 19 feet by setting the row space to 12 inches and the
number of rows to 19. Setting the row space to 12 inches for cutting
platforms allows you to reduce the cutting swath by easier-to-see one-
foot increments when you are harvesting a partial swath.
