Controlling Header Angle
The header/guard angle is controlled from the combine cab with a switch on the operator’s control console and an
indicator on the center-link. To change the header/guard angle, adjust the length of the center-link between the
combine adapter and the header.
Case, New Holland: Control header angle by using a combination of the reel fore-aft pad and the shift button, both
located on the ground speed lever (GSL). Hold the shift button on the back of the GSL, and use the reel fore/aft pad
to control the header angle. Release the shift button to revert back to reel fore/aft control.
AGCO, CLAAS, and John Deere: Control header angle by using a combination of the reel fore/aft pad on the GSL
and a Dealer-installed auxiliary toggle switch. This two-position switch toggles between reel fore/aft and header tilt
functionality. Use the reel fore/aft control pad on the GSL to adjust the selected function. The location of the toggle
switch varies per combine manufacturer.
