3.13 Delivery Opening
The width and location of the delivery opening can be changed. This affects the width and configuration of the windrow.
The decision to widen or narrow the center delivery opening, or to double windrow, should be based on the following
factors:
• Capability to pick-up a windrow
• Type and yield of crop
• Weather conditions (rain, humidity, wind)
• Drying time available
Refer to 3.14 Windrow Types, page 80 for the strengths and weaknesses of the various windrow configurations with
respect to these factors.
The procedure for adjusting the delivery opening varies depending on whether the optional hydraulic deck shift has been
installed.
Also refer to 3.13.3 Double Windrowing, page 76.
