Deflector plates
The machine is fitted with 2 deflector plates:
When the deflector plates are used, the crop is collected into a
compact swath.
The deflector plates can also be removed from the machine, so the
crop is spread out across the whole breadth of the machine.

The deflector plates are equipped with extension pieces which can be

NB
On tractors with large front wheels and short lift arms on the front lift,
users must be particularly aware of the danger of the wheel coming
into contact with the deflector plates when the front wheel is turning,
for example when turning at the headland. This can damage or deform
the deflector plates.
