3.9.1 Recommended Settings and Checks for A40DX GSS Auger Header
Follow the recommended settings and checks to prevent reel stalling and reduced reel drive performance on A40DX GSS
Auger Headers.
Ensure the differential auger reel control (DARC) is set up correctly.
• The minimum software levels should be HPAN203586W and MCAN203587T.
• Ensure that the DARC feature is enabled in the HarvestTouch
™
and Harvest Performance Tracker (HPT) under Header
Attachments.
• The reel speed sensor will automatically be disabled when the DARC is enabled.
Ensure the reel position settings are at factory configuration.
• The reel fore/aft position should be set to 816 mm (32 3/8 in.).
• The reel vertical position is set on both the left and the right sides of the reel.
– On the left side, the adjuster bolts should be set equally in order to provide a proper tine to cutterbar/pan
clearance.
– On the right side, the adjuster bolts should have an offset where the front bolt is 12 mm (15/32 in.) lower than the
rear bolt. This offset maintains the factory setting cam adjustment.
Ensure the stripper bars are installed correctly.
• The header is factory equipped with 3 sets of stripper bars – front, bottom, and rear.
• Ensure that the auger to stripper bar clearance of 1-4 mm (2/32-5/32 in.) is maintained.
• In some heavy crop conditions, it may be beneficial to remove the front stripper bar completely. The bottom and the
rear stripper bars must remain in place.
Ensure adequate reel speed.
• The reel speed must be run slightly faster than the ground speed. Running the reel at +1.2 relative to the ground speed
is recommended.
