1. Set the header angle according to the type and
condition of crop and soil as follows:
a. Use shallower settings (A) (position A on the
indicator) for normal cutting conditions and wet soil
to reduce soil build-up at the cutterbar. Shallow
angle settings also minimize damage to the knife in
stony fields.
b. Use steeper settings (D) (position D on the
indicator) for lodged crops and crops that are close
to the ground such as soybeans.
Figure 3.83: Guard Angles
The shallowest angle (A) (center-link fully retracted)
produces the highest stubble when cutting on the ground.
The steepest angle (D) (center-link fully extended) produces
the lowest stubble when cutting on the ground.
Choose an angle that maximizes performance for your crop
and field conditions. Refer to Table 3.7, page 78 for a
summary of adjustment ranges.
Table 3.7 FD75 Header Angle
Header Size Guard Angle
9.1–13.7 m (30–45 ft.) 2.0–7.4°
Refer to 3.6.2 Header Settings, page 42 for recommended
header/guard angle settings for your particular
