IMPORTANT:
Ensure all hydraulic couplings are fully engaged before operating header.
Keep hydraulic coupler tips and connectors clean. Dust, dirt, water and foreign
material are the major causes
of
damage to the hydraulic system.
To prevent improper mixing of oils: If header is to be switched back and forth
from combine to windrower, change oil in Windrower Tractor (or Bi-Directional
Tractor) hydraulic system and in Combine Adapter hydraulics reservoir to match
Combine hydraulic system. See your Tractor and Combine Operator's Manuals
for total hydraulic system care.
