6.5.6 Reel Speed

Reel speed is controlled with switches on the
CDM in the cab. On D Series draper headers, it
can be set relative to the ground speed of the
windrower using the Header Index feature, or
can run independently. Refer to the Operator’s
Manual for your specific header for windrowing
guidelines and recommended speeds.

6.5.6.1

Reel to Ground Speed – Index (Option)

Setting the speed of the reel relative to ground
speed using the Header Index function allows
the operator to maintain a preset reel to ground
speed, while operating at varying ground
speeds. This feature requires that an
“expansion module” has been installed, either at
the factory or at your dealer. To use this
feature, set the Minimum Reel Speed, and set
the Reel Index as follows:

a. Set

Reel Minimum Speed

IMPORTANT

Windrower can be moving but must be
less than minimum reel speed.

CAUTION

Check to be sure all bystanders have cleared
the area.

NOTE

DISPLAY will flash ##.## MIN REEL
(MPH or KPH) to prompt the operator to
change the minimum set point or increase
ground speed if Ground Speed Plus Index
is less than the Minimum Reel Speed Set
Point.

b. Set

Reel Index while driving windrower at

normal operating speed and greater than
minimum reel speed.
