25 ft. unit - 10'10" (3.3 m)
30 ft. unit - 11'2" (3.4 m)

Adjustment is made at right hand wheel, as
follows:
- To narrow transport width, loosen nut (A) and
turn nut (B) against bracket (C).
- To widen transport width, loosen nut (B) and
turn nut (A) against bracket (C).
- When optimum transport width is reached,
tighten nut to secure the position.
11. To maintain stability, transport with reel fully
lowered.
12. When transporting the windrower on a road or
highway, use the accessory lights to provide
adequate warning to operators of other
vehicles. The amber lights (A) are positioned to
mark the outline of the windrower, while the red
lights (B) mark the rear of the unit.
Do not use field light on roads or highways;
other drivers may be confused by its position.

highway at night, or in conditions which reduce
visibility, such as fog or rain.

traffic and bridges.
