Header Position Sensor; Retractable Ladder Step - Hillco JS7020 Operator's Manual

Retractable Ladder Step

All sidehill combines are equipped with a
retractable bottom step.
If the ladder does not extend and retract properly
check the fasteners in all of the pivot locations
and make sure they are not over tightened.
Over tightening of these fasteners will cause the
ladder to bind. Make sure that the gas-charged
struts (D) keep the ladder fully retracted. Replace
the struts if they appear to be weak. If the ladder
does not fully retract, permanent damage may
occur during field operation.
WARNING
Use of the double rubber step may cause
ladder damage if the rubber step drags on the
ground. Damage due to the ladder contacting
the ground is not covered by Hillco's warranty.
If operator chooses to operate the combine
with the double rubber step the combine must
maintain at least 12" between the step and
the ground when the combine is fully leveled
to the ladder side.
WARNING
Damage may occur if ladder is pivoted forward
and the rubber step contacts the header or
driveline
