DANGER
To avoid bodily injury or death from unexpected startup of the machine, always stop the engine and
remove the key from the ignition before leaving the operator's seat for any reason.
NOTE:
Factory-installed hard plumb connections are ideal for attaching an R85 disc header's hydraulics on an M205
windrower. If an auger header or draper header will also be used on a disc header-ready M205 windrower, quick
couplers can be ordered and installed to make switching between these headers easier
Refer to your windrower operator's manual for procedures to mechanically attach the header to the windrower.
Refer to the following procedures for electrical and hydraulic connections:
1. Order two kits (MD #B5497) for use on an M205 windrower factory-configured for a disc header only. Order one
kit (MD #B5497) for use on an M205 windrower factory-configured for auger and draper headers.
