    ATTACHING A HEADER TO THE WINDROWER 5.1.3 Connecting D1X or D1XL Series Draper Header Hydraulics Connecting the header’s hydraulics to the windrower is a simple procedure, thanks to the hydraulic hose management system. There is an additional step to perform if you are switching from using a rotary header to using a draper header. IMPORTANT: To prevent contamination of the hydraulic system, use a clean rag to remove dirt and moisture from all hydraulic couplers.
