TONGUE LOCK
To disengage the tongue transport lock, rotate
transport lock bracket, 1, up and over (one half turn)
so that the transport lockpin is spring loaded
upwards. Shift the machine slightly so that the
transport lockpin disengages from the trailframe.
The tractor hydraulics can now be used to pivot the
machine into the field position.
To engage the tongue transport lock, rotate the
transport lock bracket up and over (one half turn) so
that the transport lock pin is sprig loaded downwards.
Shift the machine into the transport (center) position
so that the transport lockpin engages in the
trailframe.
WARNING
Accidental operation of the swing cylinder
during transport could cause the machine to
swing into oncoming traffic if the tongue lock is
not engaged. Failure to comply may cause death
or serious injury.
TRANSPORT STOPS
DANGER
Always engage the transport stops when
working around a raised head or transporting the
machine on the highway. Failure to comply will
cause death or serious injury.
IMPORTANT: If the right (master) cylinder does not
extend far enough to engage the right transport stop,
lower the header all the way to the ground. A port will
open inside the cylinder and allow excess oil to drain
from the slave cylinder. Raise the header again to
engage both transport locks.
Move the tractor hydraulic lever to extend the
hydraulic cylinders all the way. Pull latch, 1, to one
side. Push the transport stop, 2, forward and release
the latch behind the stop. Engage the right stop in the
same way.
To release the stops, raise the header. Pull the
latches out of the way. Pull the stops, 2, back and
release the latches, 1, in front of the stops.
