7. 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.
8. Press HEADER DOWN switch (C) on the GSL until the
windrower lift linkages are fully lowered.
9. Drive the windrower slowly forward until draper header
supports (A) enter header legs (B). Continue driving slowly
forward until the lift linkages contact the support plates in
the header legs and the header is nudged forward.
10. Ensure that the lift linkages are properly engaged in the
header legs and are in contact with the support plates.
