Entering and Exiting the Windrower
CAUTION
To prevent slipping and possible injury, ALWAYS face the windrower and use the hand rail when
dismounting (or mounting). NEVER attempt to get on or off a moving windrower. Before leaving the
operator's seat for any reason:
• Park on level ground if possible.
• Be sure ground speed lever is in PARK and steering wheel is locked in the straight-ahead position.
• Fully lower header and reel.
• Disengage header drives.
• To avoid bodily injury or death from unexpected startup of machine, always stop engine and remove
key from ignition.
• Turn off lights unless required for inspection purposes.
• Release seat belt.
• Turn off wipers.
• Raise armrest and steering wheel for easier exit and re-entry.
• Lock the cab door when leaving the windrower unattended. (When the door is locked, it can still be
opened from inside the cab.)
Figure 4.14: Platforms and Doors
Swing-away platforms and stairs (A) are provided on both
sides of the windrower to accommodate cab-forward and
engine-forward access to the operator’s station, as well as
several maintenance tasks.
The left cab-forward side platform is shown in the rearward
(cab-forward) position.
Two doors (B) are provided for cab entry and exit in either
cab-forward mode or engine-forward mode. Enter the cab
using the door opposite the operator’s console.
NOTE:
When the engine is shut down, rear field lights turn on for
60 seconds to illuminate the platform and stairs.
