Chapter 3: Assembling Windrower

Once the various shipping assemblies have been unloaded and separated, the windrower can be assembled into field
position.

3.1 Installing Drive Wheel

The drive wheel will need to be handled with a lifting device to be safely installed on the windrower.
CAUTION
Use a suitable lifting device capable of supporting a minimum of 907 kg (2000 lb.) to lift the wheel.
1. Lift the front of the windrower off of the ground using a
lifting device of sufficient capacity.
2. Support the front of the windrower off the ground using
stand (A).
3. Remove shipping stand (B) from the lift leg. Repeat this
step at the opposite side.
4. Position drive wheel (A) against wheel drive hub (B) so that
air valve (C) faces away from the windrower, and tire
tread (D) points in the cab-forward direction.
NOTE:
For turf tires (diamond-treaded), ensure that the arrow on
the sidewall points in the cab-forward rotation.
5. Lift the wheel onto the hub using a suitable lifting device.
