Compensation mode
Use this mode when harvesting peas and/or laid
crops. In this operation mode, the header slides over
the ground with a preselected pressure.
In this mode it is also possible to obtain an automatic
lateral flotation if Autofloatt potentiometer sensors
are installed. The sensors should be connected to the
combine and the outer header skids should be in
pivoting position (i.e. hanging loose).
1. Engage the threshing mechanism and the straw
elevator with switches 1 and 2.
2. Set header memory tumbler switch 4 in
compensation mode.
3. Lower the header to the desired cutting height
using header height and header lateral flotation
rocker switch 3.
4. Press automatic header height control button 6
for minimum 2 seconds to store.
(A beep will confirm)
NOTE: The calibrated header pressure means the
pressure in the header lift cylinders with the header
+/– 15 cm (6 inches) above the ground.
5. To change the preselect pressure during working,
using the header height and header lateral
flotation rocker switch 3 (slow up/down) to the
desired pressure. Press the automatic header
height control button 6 for minimum 2 seconds to
store the new pressure. (A beep will confirm)
6. At the headlands the operator can press
automatic header height control button 6 twice to
lift the header out of the crop.
To reenter the automatic mode give a pulse on the
automatic header height control button 6 and the
header will lower until the preselected pressure is
obtained.
NOTE: To change the pressure, press slow up/down
with header height and header lateral flotation rocker
switch 3 without confirming by automatic header
height control button 6. The system will stay in
automatic mode.
NOTE: It is also possible to switch over from one
header height to an other or even to header
compensation.
