1. Move GSL (A) to the N-DETENT position. The engine can be
running.
IMPORTANT:
If the GSL is NOT in the N-DETENT position, the GSL cable
may be damaged when you swivel the operator’s station.
2. Pull up and hold knob (B) to release latch (C) at the base of
the steering column.
3. Turn the steering wheel counterclockwise to pivot the
operator’s station clockwise 180°. When the operator’s
station has turned fully, the pin will engage the latch,
securing the operator’s station in its position.
4. Ensure that the Operator’s seat belt is fastened.
5. If it is not already running, start the engine. For
instructions, refer to Starting Engine, page 160.
6. Raise the header just enough to clear common obstacles. Do not raise the header higher than is necessary, as this will
upset the windrower’s center of gravity. Ensure that the Operator has good visibility out of the cab and that motorists
are able to see the header’ s lights.

7. There are two cab-forward speed ranges. Set GROUND
SPEED RANGE switch (A) to either H (0–25.7 km/h
[16 mph]), or L (0–17.7 km/h [11 mph]).
8. Slowly push throttle (B) to the fully forward position (that
is, the operating speed position). The cab display module
(CDM) should display 2320–2350 rpm on screen (C).
CAUTION
Check again to be sure that all bystanders have cleared
the area.
9. Slowly move GSL (E) out of the N-DETENT position to the
desired speed setting. The selected speed setting will
appear on screen (D).
Driving in Reverse in Cab-Forward Mode
Ensure that the windrower’s GROUND SPEED RANGE switch is in the low position before attempting to operate in reverse.
Be aware that the steering wheel will produce the opposite response in the direction of the windrower from that produced
when it is operating in the forward direction.
WARNING
Back up slowly. Hold the steering wheel at the bottom and turn the wheel in the direction you want the rear (cab-
forward) of the machine to travel.
