Connecting Header Hydraulic and Electrical Systems

The header's hydraulic hose multicoupler will need to be connected to the windrower.

To prevent bodily injury or death from the unexpected start-up of the machine, always stop the engine and remove the

key from the ignition before making adjustments to the machine.

Do NOT stand on an unlocked platform. It is unstable and may cause you to fall.

To prevent contamination of the hydraulic system, use a clean rag to remove dirt and moisture from all hydraulic couplers.

1. Shut down the engine, and remove the key from the ignition.

2. Approach platform (A) on the left side of the windrower.

Ensure that the cab door is closed.

3. Push latch (B) and pull platform (A) toward the walking

beam until it stops and the latch engages.

4. All draper headers except D115X: Push lever (A) up and

pull arm (B) to get pin (C) out of latch (D).
