OPERATION
Attaching a D-Series Header: Mechanical Center-Link
NOTE: This topic assumes that draper header boots have already been attached to the windrower lift
linkage. If that is not the case, refer to
4.6.2 Attaching Header Boots, page 228 .
To attach a D-Series header to a windrower equipped with a mechanical center-link, follow these steps:
DANGER
Stop engine and remove key from ignition before leaving operator's seat for any reason. A child or even a
pet could engage an idling machine.
1. Remove the hairpin (A) from pins (B) and remove the
pins from header legs.
Figure 4.126: Header Leg
CAUTION
Check to be sure all bystanders have cleared the area.
2. Start engine and activate HEADER DOWN button (A)
on the ground speed lever (GSL) to fully retract header
lift cylinders.
IMPORTANT:
If the center-link is too low, it may contact the
header as the windrower approaches the header
for hookup.
