ATTACHING HEADERS TO AND DETACHING HEADERS FROM WINDROWER
8. Prepare the center-link as follows:
• If not equipped with the Center-Link Alignment kit:
Relocate pin (A) in the frame linkage as needed to raise
center-link (B) until the hook is above the attachment
pin on the header.
• If equipped with the Center-Link Alignment kit: Press
REEL UP switch (D) on the ground speed lever (GSL) to
raise the center-link until the hook is above the
attachment pin on the header.
IMPORTANT:
Ensure that the center-link is positioned high enough that it
does not contact the header as the windrower approaches
the header.
9. Press HEADER DOWN switch (C) on the GSL until the
windrower lift linkages are fully lowered.
10. Proceed as follows:
• If the header supports are installed on the windrower:
Drive the windrower slowly forward until header
supports (A) enter header legs (B).
• If the header supports are installed in the header:
Drive the windrower slowly forward until windrower lift
linkages (C) enter header supports (D) in the
header legs.
Continue driving slowly forward until the header is nudged
forward.
11. Ensure that the lift linkages are properly engaged in the
header legs and are in contact with the support plates.
