center-link hook above the header attachment pin:

• Header tilt up (C) to retract the center-link

• Header tilt down (D) to extend the center-link

6. Adjust position of the center-link cylinder (A) with

the REEL UP and REEL DOWN switches. Position
the hook above the header attachment pin using the
HEADER TILT switches on the GSL.

IMPORTANT:

Hook release must be down to enable
self-locking mechanism.

If the release is

open (up), manually push it down after hook

DOWN switch until it locks into position (hook
release [B] is down).

8. Check that center-link is locked onto header by

pressing the REEL UP switch on the GSL.

both cylinders stop moving.
