OPERATION

5.5 Cutterbar Doors

CAUTION

Do NOT operate the machine without all the
cutterbar doors down, curtains installed and in
good condition.

There are two doors to provide access to the cutterbar area.

Rubber curtains are attached to each door, at the front
corners, and center fixed cover. Latches at the lower
corners of each curtain keep the curtains together to
minimize the risk of thrown objects.

The cutterbar curtains are very important to reduce the
potential for thrown objects. Always keep these curtains
down when operating the header.

Replace

the

curtains

if

they

should

become

worn or damaged.

Refer to your Dealer for

replacement instructions.
