Operator Station Features
Header Index Mode (D-Series Headers Only):
Enhanced reel/draper speed controls may be desirable in variable crop and terrain conditions.
Allows the reel or reel and drapers to be driven by reference to operator ground speed, so that header systems will speed up and slow
down as ground speed changes.
Operation of Header Index for REEL SPEED:
1. With all bystanders clear, start windrower, and engage the header.
2. While stationary, with the GSL in Park, use the reel speed control to set a ‘Minimum Reel Speed’.
3. When operating at grounds speeds faster than the minimum reel speed + header index value, CDM reel speed view will change
to ‘Reel Index’. Using the reel speed control, index value can be adjusted.
4. Reel speed will be equal to the greater of ‘ground speed + index value’ or ‘minimum reel speed’.
Operation of Header Index for DRAPER SPEED:
Follow instructions above, using the CDM’s Draper/Auger speed control button rather than the GSL’s Reel speed control.
Return to cut:
The Return-to-Cut feature enables the operator to have the header return to a preselected cutting height and angle. CDM’s Tractor Setup
allows ‘RTC’ to be set to ‘Height Only’ or ‘Height & Tilt control’.
To set, with engine running, engage the header. Use GSL controls to move header to cutting position. Press ‘Return To Cut’ (green light
illuminates). Until ‘RTC’ is turned off, this header position will remain in memory as cutting height/angle.
Single-touch of ‘Header Down’ returns the height. Double-tap of either angle button returns Header Angle.
Floatation Presets:
A-Series, R-Series, or D-Series w/o hydraulic deck shift
Float preset/deck shift switch allows for auto-memory of 3 different floatation trim cylinder positions.
i.e. #1 - Border w lh 5.0, rh 6.5
#2 - Normal w lh 5.0, rh 5.0
#3 – Rocky w lh 6.5, rh 6.5
D-Series with Hydraulic Deck Shift
Deck Shift switch will activate hydraulic deck shifting when header is engaged, and allows for auto-memory of trim cylinder adjustments in
each delivery opening position. Allows for compensation of weight shifts to the floatation springs.
