7.13 DELIVERY OPENING/DECK SHIFT
The width and position of the delivery opening
affects the width and configuration of the
windrow.
The decision to widen or narrow the center
delivery opening; or whether or not to double
windrow should be based on the following factors:
• combine pick-up capability,
• type and yield of crop,
• weather conditions (rain, humidity, wind),
and,
• drying time available.
Refer to Section 7.15 WINDROW TYPES for the
strengths and weaknesses of the various windrow
configurations with respect to these factors.
The 25 FT. to 40 FT. D60 Harvest Headers can
lay double windrows by shifting the decks for
delivery to either the right or left side of the
header. Refer to Section 7.14 DOUBLE
WINDROWING.
The D60 Harvest Headers with manual deck shift
can also provide a range of windrow widths.
Refer to Section 7.13.1 Delivery Opening - D60.
The D50 Harvest Header center delivery opening
can be set to provide narrow, medium, and wide
windrows. Refer to Section 7.13.2 Delivery
Opening - D50.
