Locking/Unlocking Header Float
Two header float locks (one on each side of the adapter) lock and unlock the header float system.
IMPORTANT:
The float locks must be engaged when the header is being transported with the adapter attached so there is no relative
movement between the adapter and the header. The float locks also must be locked when detaching from the combine to
enable the feeder house to release the adapter.

float with respect to the adapter.
2. Engage each float lock (lock) by moving lever (B) upwards
to its highest position. In this position, the header cannot
move with respect to the adapter.
