position the U-bolt (B) farther inboard on the lean
bar.

Crop dividers should be removed for flat-bed
transport or for storage.
CROP DIVIDERS
For very tall crops, lean bar extensions allow
raising the lean bar to strike the upper portion of
the crop, leaning it away from the header and
exposing the stalks to the sickle.
Gauge Rollers (Optional to Skid Shoes)
Wholegoods order number: B2882
For stony conditions, gauge rollers allow higher
cutterbar settings than skid shoes. This allows the
operator to lower the header to the ground and let
the gauge rollers follow ground contours. See
"Cutting
Height"
in
Operation
section
for
adjustment of gauge rollers.
NOTE: The gauge roller kit includes special
narrow outer skid shoes for use with gauge rollers.
Standard width outer skid shoes (shown below)
can not be used with gauge rollers.
LEAN BAR EXTENSIONS
Adjustable Skid Shoes (Optional to Rollers)
Wholegoods order number: B2865
Where higher cutting height settings are not
necessary, adjustable outer skid shoes perform
the same function as gauge rollers, following
ground contours to provide consistent cutting
height. See "Cutting Height" in Operation section
for adjustment of skid shoes.
