CORN HEAD ANGLE NEEDS TO BE ADJUSTED BETWEEN 22 – 25° FOR OPTIMUM
DEVASTATATOR PERFORMANCE. USE THE 5000-455 TO CHECK CORN HEAD ANGLE:
- Put the combine on a level surface. Lower corn head to your normal working head height.
- Place the magnetic protractor on the stripper plate to get the angle. Adjust the feeder
house as needed, fore or aft, to achieve 22 – 25 degrees.
-
Head cart may need adjusted to fit the head with devastator correctly. E.g. raising or fore/aft adjustment of saddles/top rail on the head cart.
-
If head cart does not have these adjustments, adding a tube extension to top rail or adding extension to saddle/corn head may be required.
-
Side to side tilt may need used to clear taller head cart tires or locking the devastator up.
-
When disconnecting from the head, leaving pressure on the torsion pivot of the devastator will not damage the devastator.
