The Header Pan; Removing The Header Pan - MacDon R85 Operator's Manual

6.11 The Header Pan

The header pan is located behind the cutterbar and helps prevent material loss and wrapping in certain crops, such
as grass seed, oats, and tall stalky crops.
In conditions where more soil and stones are being picked up by the cutterbar, it may be desirable to remove the
pan to allow the debris to fall out before being fed into the conditioner.
