This kit configures an R113 rotary disc header for an M205 windrower. IMPORTANT: The R113 rotary disc header must be configured for an M1170 windrower BEFORE installing this kit. • If the header does not have a hydraulic motor, install M1170 compatibility kit MD #B6621 before proceeding.
Chapter 1: Safety 1.1 Signal Words Three signal words, DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION, are used to alert you to hazardous situations. Two signal words, IMPORTANT and NOTE, identify non-safety related information. Signal words are selected using the following guidelines: DANGER Indicates an imminently hazardous situation that, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
SAFETY 1.2 General Safety CAUTION The following general farm safety precautions should be part of your operating procedure for all types of machinery. Protect yourself when assembling, operating, and servicing machinery, wear all protective clothing and personal safety devices that could be necessary for the job at hand. Do NOT take chances.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 3. Replace pressure relief valve (A), installed in the header hydraulic motor, with new 517 kPa (75 psi) relief valve (MD #159635). Figure 3.2: Pressure Relief Valve 4. Label case drain hose (A). 5. Find narrow fitting (B) to identify RETURN hose. Remove couplers and elbow fitting (C) from return hose (D).

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 7. Proceed according to the type of hydraulic couplers or fittings used on the M205: • If the M205 is equipped with quick couplers (A) to connect to the header, proceed to 3.1.1 Installing Hydraulic Components – M205 With Quick Couplers, page Figure 3.4: Pressure and Return Steel Lines with Quick Couplers •...
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 3.1.1 Installing Hydraulic Components – M205 With Quick Couplers NOTE: Union fittings (MD #252232) supplied in the kit are NOT used on M205 Windrowers equipped with quick couplers. 1. Install female coupler (A) (MD #138345) onto header PRESSURE hose (B). 2.
Page 16
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 6. Confirm quick couplers are connected properly. Couplers will restrict oil flow if they are not fully mated (O-ring [A] will be visible). This will generate excessive heat, damaging the drive components and the couplers themselves. Couplers (B) at right are fully mated, and couplers (C) at right are not fully mated.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 3.1.2 Installing Hydraulic Components – M205 Without Quick Couplers NOTE: Quick couplers (MD #138344) and (MD #138345) supplied in the kit are NOT used on M205 Windrowers not equipped with quick couplers. 1. Install union fitting (A) (MD #252232) onto header pressure hose (B).
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 3.2 Checking Speed Sensor Make sure the speed sensor configured as follows: 1. Remove left driveshield (A). For instructions, refer to the header operator’s manual or technical manual. 2. Check the speed sensor as follows: Figure 3.13: Left Driveshield •...
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 3.2.1 Repositioning Conditioner Drive Speed Sensor – Model Year 2018 and Later Reposition the speed sensor as follows: NOTE: This procedure also applies to model year 2017 headers that have an updated steel speed sensor and mounting bracket as shown in Figure 3.16, page 1.
Page 20
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 5. Close left driveshield (A). For instructions, refer to the header operator’s manual or technical manual. 6. Proceed to 3.3 Installing Electrical Components, page Figure 3.18: Left Driveshield 215276 Revision A...
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 3.2.2 Repositioning Conditioner Drive Speed Sensor – Model Year 2017 Follow these instructions to reposition the sensor for M205 Windrowers. NOTE: If the model year 2017 header has been updated with a model year 2018 style steel speed sensor and bracket, refer to 3.2.1 Repositioning Conditioner Drive Speed Sensor –...
