DANGER
To prevent bodily injury or death from the unexpected start-up of the machine, always stop the engine and remove the
key from the ignition before leaving the 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. Shut down the engine, and remove the key from the ignition.
3. Lock header wings. Refer to Locking/Unlocking Header Wings, page 66.
