Swath Compressor Controls

This topic explains how the windrower controls the swath compressor, and describes the automated raise/lower functions.
DANGER
To prevent bodily injury or death from the unexpected startup of the machine, stop the engine and remove the key
from the ignition before leaving the operator's seat.
Swath compressor height (A) is displayed on the HarvestTouch
Display with a scale from 0–10.
Swath compressor icon (B) is displayed when the swath
compressor is activated in the attachments menu. If the sensor
is disabled, height number (A) is replaced by a sensor disabled
icon. For instructions on enabling the sensor, refer to the Swath
Compressor for M2 Series Windrowers Setup, Operation, and
Parts Manual.
Switches (A) and (B) on the operator's console are used to
adjust the position (height). Releasing the switch stops the
movement.
Each momentary press of the switch changes the value by one.
Pressing and holding changes the value by one increment per
second.
The last position set with the console switches becomes the
target height. When an adjustment is made, the display shows
the target value. The system immediately adjusts to attain the
target position. After the last adjustment, the display shows
target value for 5 seconds then reverts to the actual position.
