OPERATION
23. Setting on CA25 draper control. 24. Set header angle as shallow as possible (setting A) with center-link and skid shoes while maintaining cutting height. 25. Cutting height is controlled with a combination of skid shoe settings and header angle. 26. Percentage above ground speed. 27. Stabilizer wheels are used to minimize header bouncing and to limit side-to-side movement when cutting off the ground in rolling terrain.
