5. Remove and retain the following parts from the walking
beam:
• Four M24 x 60 bolts (MD #136366) and
M24 washers (A) (MD #136367)
NOTE:
The M24 bolts and M24 washers are the same as the
ones supplied in the tool box.
• Shock support bracket (B)
• Slow moving vehicle (SMV) sign support bracket (C)
NOTE:
SMV support bracket (C) is preinstalled on shock support
brackets (B) at the left cab-forward walking beam.
6. Rotate the caster so that wheel (A) is parallel to the walking
beam. This will make it easier to move the extensions. Pull
walking beam extension (B) out to the desired position and
line up the bolt holes.
NOTE:
Walking beam extension (B) can be in one of three working
positions. In general, a narrower caster tread width is
better suited for smaller headers, while a wider caster tread
width reduces the amount of crop trampled by the
windrower when large windrows are being harvested.
7. Retrieve all M24 x 60 bolts (MD #136366) and M24 flat
washers (MD #136367). Coat the threads of the bolts with
anti-seize compound.
8. Install two bolts (MD #136366) and M24 washers (C)
(MD #136367) on the bottom of the beam. Do NOT tighten
the hardware yet
9. Install two M24 bolts (MD #136366) and washers (A)
(MD #136367) in the outboard side of the walking beam.
Do NOT fully tighten the hardware yet.
NOTE:
The outboard bolts may need to be installed first.
10. Place support brackets (B) onto the walking beam as shown
and secure them with two M24 bolts (MD #136366) and
washers (C) (MD #136367). Do NOT fully tighten the
hardware yet.
