The CA25 Combine Adapter auger feeds the cut crop from the draper decks into the combine feeder house.
5.7.1 Adjusting Auger to Pan Clearance
DANGER
To avoid bodily injury or death from unexpected start-up of machine, always stop engine and remove key
from ignition before leaving operator’s seat for any reason.
IMPORTANT:
Maintain an appropriate distance between auger and auger pan. Too little clearance may cause tines or flighting to
contact and damage feed draper or pan when operating header at certain angles. Look for evidence of contact
when greasing adapter.
1. Extend center-link to steepest header angle (setting D), and position header 150–254 mm (6–10 in.) off the
ground.
2. Lock header wings. Refer to Locking/Unlocking Header Wings, page 65.
3. Shut down combine and remove key from ignition.
