Rotary Disc Only Configuration – Hard-Plumbed Connections
The rotary disc configuration allows the windrower to operate with compatible rotary disc headers. The hydraulic
connections must be torqued correctly when using hard-plumbed fittings.
IMPORTANT:
To prevent contamination of the hydraulic system, use a clean rag to remove dirt and moisture from all (fixed and
movable) hydraulic couplers.
