Removing The Conditioner - MacDon R113 Assembly Instruction Manual

6.2 Removing the Conditioner

CAUTION
Ensure spreader bar is secured to the forks so that it
cannot slide off the forks or towards the mast while
detaching the conditioner from the header.
1. Attach a spreader bar (A) to a forklift or equivalent, and
attach chains to lugs (B) on conditioner. Use a chain
rated for overhead lifting with a minimum working load
of 2500 lb (1135 kg).
DANGER
To prevent the conditioner from falling backward,
ensure lifting chains are secure and tight. Failure to
do so may result in death or serious injury.
2. Move forward baffle adjustment handle (A) to fully
lowered position as shown.
3. Move rear baffle adjustment handle (B) to fully raised
position as shown.
NOTE:
Access to upper bolts (C) is easiest from the rear
of the conditioner.
4. Lift conditioner slightly forward to take load off bolts (A)
and to hold the conditioner after the bolts are removed.
Retain hardware for reinstallation.
