Attaching Header To M1 Series Windrower - MacDon R113 Unloading And Assembly Instructions

5.2 Attaching Header to M1 Series Windrower

The procedure for attaching the header to an M1 Series Windrower varies depending on whether or not the self-aligning
center-link is installed.
NOTE:
The R113 SP is compatible with the M1170 and M1240 Windrowers, but not the M1170NT and M1170NT5 Windrowers.
DANGER
To prevent bodily injury or death from the 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. Shut down the engine, and remove the key from the ignition.
2. Locate hydraulic center-link (A).
3. Hydraulic center-link without self-alignment: Remove
pin (A) and raise center-link (B) until the hook is above the
attachment pin on the header. Replace pin (A) to hold the
center-link in place.
IMPORTANT:
If the center-link is too low, it may contact the header as
the windrower approaches the header.
