Initial Header & Header Drive Setup
• Release and adjust cutterbar on ex headers. Adjust header height
control.
• Variable speed header drive in slowest position.
• Right-hand pivot drive belt positioned on large countershaft drive
sheave.
Tips
• Round-end corn chaffer can remain in combine for soybeans however,
if grain quality needs to be improved, standard chaffer is available.
• Left-hand separator cage cover and chopper oor cover are required
for soybeans.
• Retractable stationary knives should be left in the lower position in
soybeans. If additional chop of residue is required, the stationary
knives should be partially raised up in small increments to avoid
excessive power requirements. The new 24-knife chopper available
on S7 Series, standard on all S8 Series and S9 Series, will provide
adequate chop in most cases.
