Installing 872 Combine Adapter on 962 Header
1. Deck backsheet extensions (C) and (D) are
shipped with the 872 Combine Adapter. These are
installed at the delivery opening.
Install extension (C) on left side of delivery
opening and (D) on right side. Extensions mount
to rear of deck backsheet with 3/8 x ¾ bolts and
flange locknuts. Install hardware with bolt heads
on draper side.
2. Retainers (E) are shipped with the 872
Combine Adapter. These are installed
inside header center legs to secure
header to adapter when full float is
reached. Retainers also restrict side
movement.
Install retainer (E) at inside of left center
leg, using existing 0.41 x 0.81" slot.
Secure with 3/8 x 3/4 carriage bolt (F) and
flange locknut (G). When tightening,
ensure that header pin fits freely through
leg and retainer at (X).
NOTE: L/H leg is shown. Retainer (E)
mounts to leg side wall closest to center
delivery opening. Left and right retainers
(E) are different. Be sure they are
correctly positioned.
Repeat at right center leg.
3. NOTE: For delivery openings of 41.7” (1060
mm) and smaller, (Case, Gleaner and New
Holland TR.) before installing draper, install
draper supports (S) at cutterbar side of idler
roller bars using 3/8 x ¾ carriage head bolts
