5.1.4 R2 Series Rotary Disc Header

This section details the procedures necessary to physically attach an R2 Series Rotary Disc Header to a windrower and to
complete its hydraulic and electrical connections.

Attaching Forming Shield

The forming shield determines the width and the placement of the windrow. The instructions in this section will show you
how to properly attach the forming shield to the windrower.
1. Remove lynch pin (A) and washer (B) from straight pin (C).
2. Attach rubber strap (D) to straight pin (C) at the rear of the
windrower leg. Secure it with washer (B) and lynch pin (A).
3. Repeat Step 1, page 114
opposite side of the forming shield.

Attaching R2 Series Rotary Disc Header

The windrower's support feet and center-link will need to be connected to the rotary disc header. The windrower may be
equipped with an optional self-aligning hydraulic center-link, which allows control over the vertical position of the center-
link from the cab.
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.
