ASSEMBLY AND SERVICE (continued)
The reel weighs between 400 lbs. (15') and 800 lbs. (30') and must be adequately supported. When
positioning the reel, be sure a stop is in place to prevent the reel from sliding off the reel support arms. See
header Operator's Manual for reel clearance and fore-aft adjustments.
Do not service or adjust reel until:
1. The header is resting on the ground and the reel is fully lowered. If it is necessary to service in the raised
position, first engage header and reel cylinder stops.
2. Header clutch is disengaged.
3. The engine is stopped and the key removed from the start switch.
4. The park brake is set.
5. All moving parts have stopped.
OPERATING
Be aware and stay clear of rotating machine parts which cannot be shielded. Keep shields installed and wear
close fitting clothing to help protect from entanglement and injury.
Lower or block all hydraulically or mechanically elevated implements, including the reel and other attachments
before leaving the equipment.
Be aware that accidents often happen when the operator is tired or in a hurry to get finished. Take the time to
consider the safest way. Never ignore warning signs of fatigue.
