c. Press FAST (C) or SLOW (D) until the desired reel index is achieved.
NOTE:
The reel will continue operating at the minimum reel speed setting when the ground speed drops below the set
value. The cab display module (CDM) display (A) will flash ##.## MIN REEL (RPM or MPH or KPH) prompting
you to change the minimum set-point or increase your ground speed if the total of the ground speed, plus the
index value is LESS THAN the minimum reel speed set-point.
Examples:
• Windrower is operating at 8 mph with header index ON and set at 5.5.
Display shows 13.5 5.5 REEL IND where 13.5 (8 + 5.5) is the reel speed in mph and 5.5 is the header index setting.
• Windrower speed drops to 7.5 mph at the same header index setting.
Display shows 13.0 5.5 REEL IND where 13.0 (7.5 + 5.5) is the reel speed in mph and 5.5 is the
header index setting.
• Windrower is operating at 8 mph with header index ON and set at 1.0.
Display shows 9.0 1.0 REEL IND where 9.0 (8 + 1.0) is the reel speed in mph and 1.0 is the header index setting.
