Connecting A40DX Auger Electrical and Hydraulics
Connecting the A40DX electrical and hydraulic connections to the windrower is a simple procedure, thanks to the
multicoupler. There is an additional step to perform if you are swapping a rotary disc header for an auger header.
CAUTION
Do NOT stand on an unlocked platform. It is unstable and may cause you to fall.
