3.5.1 Attaching R1 SP Disc Header to M1170 Windrower

The windrower hydraulic center-link may be equipped with a self-aligning option that allows the Operator to control
the vertical position of the center-link from the cab.
DANGER
To avoid bodily injury or death from 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.
1. Hydraulic center-link without self-alignment:
Relocate pin (A) in frame linkage as required to raise
the center-link (B) until the hook is above the
attachment pin on the header.
IMPORTANT:
If the center-link is too low, it may contact the header as
the windrower approaches the header for hookup.
2. Remove hairpin (A) from clevis pin (B), and remove pin
from header support (C) on both sides of header.
CAUTION
Check to be sure all bystanders have cleared the area.
3. Start windrower engine.
