Setting Preset Cutting Height (John Deere S and T Series)

NOTE:
Changes may have been made to the combine controls or display since this document was published. Refer to the
combine operator's manual for updates.
NOTE:
The indicator (A) should be at position 0 (B) with the header
(152 mm [6 in.]) off the ground. If not, the float sensor output
voltage should be checked. Refer to Step
When the header is on the ground, the indicator should be
at position 1 (C) for low ground pressure, and at position
4 (D) for high ground pressure. Crop and soil conditions
determine the amount of float to use. The ideal setting is as
light as possible without header bouncing or missing crop.
Operating with heavy settings prematurely wears the
cutterbar wearplates.

height of feeder house for acre counter engagement.
