NOTE:
The transmission is most efficient with the engine at full
speed and the GSL fully forward. The windrower can be
equipped with an automatic steering system for use in the
field. An automated steering system is available as an
option and can be installed by a MacDon Dealer. The GSL
has been pre-wired at the factory with a switch. Refer to
6.2.1 Automated Steering Systems, page 396.

1. Move throttle lever (A) to a mid-range position.
NOTE:
Reversing in low speed range and at reduced engine speed
is recommended since steering will be less sensitive than at
higher speed settings.
CAUTION
Check again to be sure all bystanders have cleared the area.
2. Move the ground speed lever (GSL) (B) rearward to
desired speed.
