header legs and are contacting the support plates.
9. Shut down the engine, and remove the key from the
ignition.
10. Loosen nut (A) and rotate barrel (B) to adjust length until
the link is aligned with the header bracket.
11. Install clevis pin (C) and secure it with cotter pin (D).
12. Adjust the length of the link to achieve the proper header
angle by rotating barrel (B). Tighten nut (A) against the
barrel (a slight tap with a hammer is sufficient).

a.
Press and hold the HEADER UP switch until both
cylinders stop moving.
b. Continue to hold the switch for 3–4 seconds. The
