09 / 240
Folding process (from transport in working position)
Reel horizontal adjustment of the combine to actuate until
the header has reached its working position.
Keep off the dangerous zone!
Keep off the working range of the
header! header!
Valve actuation not to finish until 10 seconds after complete
closing of the cover shields (to assure the locking function).
Machine to run idle to get the drive coupler engaged.
Locking
Once the header is completely open in working position,
the locking (B) is automatically activated.

troubleshoot.
(see help in case of malfunctions, page 10 / 900)
There are possibly foreign substances hindering the
function.
Bolt (B) must completely extend in locked state.
Check drive coupler! Cams are spring-loaded and turn off
unless cam and opening in driving plate are not in line!
Control valve for locking
The locking (V) is triggered by the valve (U) and closes
only if the header has really reached its working position.
If the locking is not activated despite of sitting closely on
the stop screws (A), on-off valve (U) to readjust with screw

If required, stop screws on the bottom frame and locking
bolts (V) to readjust.
