Reel Speed Control Operation
MANUAL or AUTOMATIC reel speed control is only active when the feeder is ON and MAN or AUTO is selected. If
Corn is selected, reel speed control operation is disabled and indicates to the controller that a corn head is
attached.
Manual Reel Speed Control
To operate the reel in the MANUAL mode press the
REEL SPEED switch (1) to the middle (“M”)
position.
The REEL/RATIO SPEED CONTROL (2) sets the
speed of a grain head reel. If the REEL/RATIO
SPEED CONTROL is set fully counterclockwise
the reel speed will be zero (“0”).
Automatic Reel Speed Control
To operate the reel in the AUTOMATIC mode press
the REEL SPEED CONTROL SWITCH (1) to the
forward (“A”) position.
The reel speed is now a function of the ground speed
of the Combine. The REEL/RATIO CONTROL
SWITCH (2) sets the ratio the grain head reel turns
relative to the ground speed. The ratio range is
0.85:1 to 3.5:1.
The MINIMUM REEL SPEED CONTROL (3) sets the
minimum speed at which the reel turns for low
ground speeds.
