CAUTION
Check to be sure all bystanders have cleared the area.
Set the speed of the reel independently of ground speed as follows while operating the windrower:
NOTE: This procedure is similar to changing the draper speed “on the go” with the conveyor speed control

Setting Draper Speed Independent of Ground Speed, page 235 . These changes
become the new set-points.
