Notes:
1. Keep header angle
as shallow as
possible. Center link
position depends on
skid shoe and
stabilizer wheel
position. Set header
angle and skid shoe
position to maxi-
mize amount of poly
on the ground while
maintaining desired
cutting height.
2. Minimum knife drive
p u l l e y R P M .
Applicable to only
single knife drive
headers.
3. Percentage above
ground speed.
4. Cutting height is
controlled with a
combination of skid
shoes, stabilizer
wheels and header
angle. By support-
ing header with skid
shoes or stabilizer
wheels, the adapter
floats header over
o b s t a c l e s a n d
ground contours.
5. Available through
your Dealer Parts
Department. Set
divider rods to
highest or second to
highest position in
standing crop. This
position allows the
dividers to level the
down crop for a
cleaner cut at the
ends of the header.
Whisker divider not
required on both
ends of header.
