ing reel speed will alter auger speed unless the auger speed has been preset.
SettingReeltoGroundSpeed
Setting the speed of the reel relative to ground speed (using the header index function) automatically adjusts the
reel speed with changes to ground speed. Benefits may include improved crop flow and reduced operator fatigue.
Setting the reel to ground speed requires setting the minimum reel speed and the reel index.
