Hydraulic Deck Shift
FLOAT PRESET/DECK SHIFT switch allows
for auto-memory of three different trim cylinder
positions. For example:
#1 - Border Width LH 5.0, RH 6.5
#2 - Normal Width LH 5.0, RH 5.0
#3 - Rocky Width LH 6.5, RH 6.5
D-Series with Hydraulic Deck Shift
DECK SHIFT switch activates hydraulic deck
shifting when header is engaged, and allows for
auto-memory of trim cylinder adjustments in
each delivery opening position.
Allows for compensation of weight shifts to the
float springs.
