4.7.5 Reel Speed
Reel speed is controlled with switches on the ground speed lever (GSL) in the cab. On draper headers, reel speed can run
independently, or be set relative to the ground speed of the windrower using the header index feature. Refer to your
headers operator manual for specific windrowing guidelines and recommended speeds.
Adjusting Reel Speed
Reel speed is displayed in either rpm, mph, or km/h (depending on the global units selection). The default reel speed is 60
rpm and can be set to auto or manual mode.
AUTO mode: Minimum reel speed and operating reel speed differential relative to ground speed are set, and reel speed
is maintained relative to ground speed. Refer to Setting Reel Speed in Auto Mode, page 205.
MANUAL mode: Reel speed is set and is maintained regardless of ground speed. Refer to Setting Reel Speed in Manual
Mode, page 206.
NOTE:
Both speed modes work with the One-Touch-Return feature. For example, button A on the GSL can be set for MANUAL
mode and button B can be set for AUTO mode. Refer to One-Touch-Return Buttons (A, B, C), page 74 .
