Attaching D1X Or D1Xl Series Draper Header - MacDon M1 Series Unloading And Assembly Instructions

5.2.2 Attaching D1X or D1XL Series Draper Header

The windrower may have an optional self-aligning hydraulic center-link, which allows control over the vertical position of
the center-link from the cab. If the windrower is so equipped, the procedure for attaching the header will differ slightly.
DANGER
To prevent bodily injury or death from the 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:
Draper header supports must be installed onto the windrower lift linkage before starting this procedure. For instructions,
refer to 5.2.1 Attaching Draper Header Supports, page
1. Shut down the engine, and remove the key from the ignition.

windrower lift legs must be removed to avoid contacting
the draper header as follows:
a. Remove hardware (B).
b. Remove support bracket (A). Place the bracket and
