INTRODUCTION
Your new Self-Propelled Windrower is designed to cut and lay in windrows, a wide variety of grain, hay and specialty crops. Windrowing allows starting the harvest earlier, protects the crop from wind damage, and gives you more flexibility in scheduling combine time.
The power unit (referred to in this manual as the "tractor"), when coupled with one of the specially designed draper or auger headers, provides a package which incorporates many features and improvements in design requested by Owner/Operators like yourself.
NOTE: This manual contains information on the windrower tractor only. It is to be used in conjunction with the Header Operator's Manual. CAREFULLY READ BOTH MANUALS TO BECOME FAMILIAR WITH ALL RECOMMENDED PROCEDURES BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO UNLOAD, ASSEMBLE OR USE THE WINDROWER.
Use the manual as your first source of information about the machine. If you follow the instructions given in this manual, your Windrower will work well for many years.
The manual contains instructions for "Safety", "Operation", and "Maintenance/Service". In addition "Unloading and Assembly" information is given towards the back of this book.
Use the Table of Contents and the Index to guide you to specific areas. Study the Table of Contents to familiarize yourself with how the material is organized.
Keep this manual handy for frequent reference and to pass on to new operators or owners. Call your Windrower dealer if you need assistance, information, or additional copies of the manuals.
NOTE: Right hand (R/H) and left hand (L/H) designations are determined from the operator's position, facing forward.

GENERAL SAFETY
The following are general farm safety precautions that should be part of your operating procedure for all type s of machinery.
1. Protect yourself.
When assembling, operating and servicing machinery, wear all the protective clothing and personal safety devices that COULD be necessary for the job at hand. Don't take chances.
You may need:
· a hard hat.
· protective shoes with slip resistant soles.
· protective glasses or goggles.
· heavy gloves.
· wet weather gear.
· respirator or filter mask.
· hearing protection. Be aware that prolonged
exposure to loud noise can cause impairment or loss of hearing. Wearing a suitable hearing protective device such as ear muffs (A) or ear plugs (B) protects against objectionable or loud noises.
2. Provide a first-aid kit for use in case of
emergencies.
3. Keep a fire extinguisher on the machine. Be
sure the extinguisher is properly maintained and be familiar with its proper use.
4. Keep young children away from machinery
at all times.
5. Be aware that accidents often ha ppen when
the operator is tired or in a hurry to get finished. Take the time to consider the safest way. Never ignore warning signs of fatigue.

GENERAL SAFETY
6. Wear close-fitting clothing and cover long
hair. Never wear dangling items such as scarves or bracelets.
7. Keep hands, feet, clothing and hair away
from moving parts. Never attempt to clear obstructions or objects from a machine while the engine is running.
8. Keep all shields in place. Never alter or
remove safety equipment. driveline guards can rotate independently of the shaft and can telescope freely.
9. Use only service and repair parts made or
approved by the equipment manufacturer. Substituted parts may not meet strength, design, or safety requirements.
10. Do not modify the machine. Unauthorized modifications may impair the function and/or safety and affect machine life.
11. Stop engine and remove key from ignition before leaving operator's seat for any reason. A child or even a pet could engage an idling machine.
12. Keep the area used for servicing machinery clean and dry. Wet or oily floors are slippery. Wet spots can be dangerous when working with electrical equipment. Be sure all electrical outlets and tools are properly grounded.
13. Use adequate light for the job at hand.
14. Keep machinery clean. Straw and chaff on a hot engine are a fire hazard. Do not allow oil or grease to accumulate on service platforms, ladders or controls. Clean machines before storage.
15. Never use gasoline, naphtha or any volatile material for cleaning purposes. These materials may be toxic and/or flammable.
16. When storing machinery, cover sharp or extending components to prevent injury from accidental contact.

The LCD display allows the operator to monitor various machine systems, while the warning lights and audible tones are provided to alert the operator that continued operation will cause serious machine damage.
Six Function LCD displays the following:
tachometer (engine speed) (B)
cutting rate (area per hour) (C)
subtotal area (D)
grand total area (D)
engine accumulated hours (E)
header accumulated hours (F)
Select function by momentarily pressing switch (A) once for each mode change. The function light for the current selection will flash for 10 seconds. The other function lights burn steadily during scrolling to indicate which functions are currently available at the present engine speed.
When engine is not running, and key is in the ON position, subtotal area is the default and
momentarily pressing switch (A) scrolls through grand total area, engine hours, header hours and back to subtotal area. When engine is running at less than 2000 rpm, tachometer is the default and momentarily pressing switch (A) scrolls through all six functions. After 10 seconds in any mode, the monitor switches back to tachometer. When engine speed is greater than 2000 rpm, tachometer is the default and momentarily pressing switch (A) scrolls through cutting rate, subtotal area and back to tachometer. Tach or cutting rate will remain displayed until switch is pressed, while subtotal area will revert back to tachometer after 10 seconds
TACHOMETER (B):
Indicates engine speed in revolutions per minute.
CUTTING RATE (Area per hour) (C):
Displays in either acres or hectares. Calculates rate of crop cut when header is engaged and engine rpm exceeds 2000 rpm based on ground speed and programmed cut width.
SUBTOTAL/GRAND TOTAL CUT AREA (D):
Displays in either acres or hectares. Subtotal cut area will display first. This shows area cut since last reset. When in this mode hold the button for 5 seconds to reset the subtotal to zero.
Grand total cut area shows total area cut over life of the windrower. After 9999, display will flash back and forth between thousand units and hundred units. For example, 53286 would be displayed by flashing between 53_ and _286, while 573902 would be displayed by flashing between 573_ and _902.
ENGINE HOUR METER (E):
Accumulates time that the engine is running. The display will alternate between 4 digits (representing hours accumulated) and tenths of an hour.
HEADER HOUR METER (F):
Accumulates time that the header is engaged with the engine running. The display will alternate between 4 digits (representing hours accumulated) and tenths of an hour.
PROGRAMMING

4. Once the desired programming mode is displayed, enter the selection mode by pressing and holding switch (A) for more than 5 seconds. (At 5 seconds there will be an audible tone. Release switch at tone.)
5. In the “ENG/SI” selection mode the monitor shows “ENG” or “SI”, whichever unit of measure is active. To scroll between the two, momentarily push switch (A). “SI” will cause cutting rate and cut area totals to display in hectares. As w ell, the speedometer will display in kilometers per hour. When in “SI”, the small triangle at the top left corner of the digital display will be illuminated. “ENG” will cause cutting rate and cut area totals to display in acres and the speedometer to display in miles per hour. Shipping Position = ENG.
6. To select either “ENG” or “SI” once it is displayed, press and hold switch (A) for more than 5 seconds. (At 5 seconds there will be an audible tone. Release switch at tone.) This also advances the monitor to the next programming mode (CUT WIDTH).
7. Press switch (A) for 5 seconds again to enter the “CUT WIDTH” selection mode. The monitor shows the active cut width. To scroll through the cut widths, momentarily press switch (A) to scroll in 0.5 foot increasing increments through a cutting range of 10.0 to 37.0 feet (3.05 to 11.28 meters). Display in feet will have an “F” following the width, e.g. 24.5 feet cutting width would be shown as “24.5F”. Shipping Position = 10.0F NOTE: To advance the cut width in increments of 5 feet instead of 0.5, turn the header drive switch on and off again (see page 23).
8. To select a cut width once it is displayed, press and hold switch (A) for more than 5 seconds. (At 5 seconds there will be an audible tone. Release switch at tone.) This also advances the monitor to the next programming mode (TIRE SIZE).
9. Press switch (A) for 5 seconds again to enter the “TIRE SIZE” selection mode. The monitor shows the active tire size. Momentarily press switch (A) to scroll through tire options. This selection will trigger the correct readout for speedometer, based on rolling diameter of each tire size. Shipping Position = 21.5. NOTE: For units with 500 series tires, select the “500” option.
10. To select a tire size once it is displayed, press and hold switch (A) for more than 5 seconds. (At 5 seconds there will be an audible tone. Release switch at tone.) This also returns the monitor to the “ENG/SI” programming mode.

OPERATION
Start-Up Procedure
DANGER: Avoid possible injury or death from a runaway machine.
Do not start engine by shorting across starter terminals. Machine will start in gear and move if normal starting circuitry is bypassed.
This machine has two safety devices which prevent the engine from starting unless the variable speed lever is in neutral, the steering wheel is locked in the neutral position, and the header drive switch is in the OFF position. Under no circumstances are these circuits to be deliberately rewired so that the engine can be started with controls out of neutral.
Start engine only from operator's seat with controls in neutral. NEVER start engine while standing on ground. Machine will start in gear and move if normal starting circuitry is bypassed.
Before starting engine, be sure there is plenty of ventilation to avoid asphyxiation.
IMPORTANT: Do not tow machine to start engine.
Damage to hydrostatic drives will result.
ADJUSTING CONTROLS
1. Fasten seat belt.
2. Move header drive switch (B) to off position.
3. Move variable speed lever to neutral position
(C).
4. Turn steering wheel until it locks. Adjust
steering wheel tilt to desired position.
5. Move throttle lever (D) to start-up position -
Lever fully back.
CHECKING INSTRUMENTS
The machine gauges and instruments provide important information about machine operation and condition. Familiarize yourself with the gauges and monitor them carefully during start-up operation. See "Instruments and Controls".

OPERATION Start-Up Procedure (continued)
STARTING ENGINE
CAUTION: Be sure the area is clear of other persons, pets etc. before proceeding.
Temperature above 16° C (60° F): Turn ignition key to START position until engine starts. Release key. If engine does not start within 5 seconds of cranking, follow the start procedure that suits outside temperature as below.
Temperature between 5° - 16° C (40° - 60° F): Move throttle lever (A) fully forward after turning ignition key to START position. When engine starts, release key and return throttle lever (A) to low idle.
Temperature below 5° C (40° F ) ( c o ld s t a r t ) : Press and hold glow plug switch (G) for 20-25 seconds, then turn ignition key to START position until engine starts. Release key. If engine does not start within 5 seconds of cranking, wait two minutes, then try again.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate starter for longer than 15 seconds at a time. If engine does not start, wait at least two minutes before trying again. After the third 15 second crank attempt, allow solenoid to cool for 10 minutes before further cranking attempts. If engine still does not start, refer to Trouble Shooting section.
WARNING: If starter engages with steering wheel unlocked, variable
speed lever out of neutral, or header clutch engaged, DO NOT START ENGINE. Perform Neutral Lock Adjustment. (See Main­tenance/Service section.)
WARMING UP ENGINE
Allow engine to run with throttle lever (A) at or near low idle position until temperature gauge reaches approximately 180°F (80°C).
USING A BOOSTER BATTERY If battery charge is low and engine fails to start, an
extra 12-volt battery can be connected in parallel with the windrower battery. Follow directions carefully. See "Connecting Booster Battery" in Maintenance/Service section.

OPERATION
Driving the Windrower
WARNING: · Avoid driving the machine with header removed. Removing header decreases the weight on drive wheels, reducing steering control.
· If necessary to drive machine with header
removed, use transmission "field speed" range, do not exceed half maximum engine speed and avoid loose gravel and slopes.
· Never use windrower as a towing vehicle
when header is removed. There is insufficient weight on the drive wheels to provide steering control.
· Because of windrower shape
characteristics, a roll-over protected (ROPS) cab is not required. If operating with header removed, be aware that the cab structure will not withstand a roll-over.
CAUTION: HYDROSTATIC STEERIN G The machine is steered hydrostatically, that is, turning the
steering wheel varies the hydraulic flow to one drive wheel relative to the other drive wheel. The reaction of this type of steering is different than conventional steering mechanisms. Remember:
· With the engine running and the variable
speed lever in neutral, the machine will move if the steering wheel is turned.
· Hydrostatic steering is more sensitive than
mechanical steering.
· Steering is opposite to normal when driving
in reverse.
CAUTION: 1. Never move variable speed lever or steering wheel until you are sure all bystanders have cleared the area.
2. Be sure area is clear before making turns,
ends of header travel in a large arc.
3. Check the operation of all controls in a safe,
clear area before starting work. Be sure you know the capacity and operating characteristics of this machine.
4. Do not allow riders in or on the machine.
5. Operate only w hile seated in the operator's
position.
6. Never attempt to get on or off a moving
windrower.
7. Avoid sudden starts and stops.
8. Avoid inclines, ditches and fences.
9. Reduce speed when turning, crossing
slopes, or travelling over rough ground.
10. Do not allow anyone to stand behind the machine while operating. Foreign objects may be forcibly ejected.

OPERATION
Driving the Windrower (continued)
TO DRIVE FORWARD
1. For field operation, set speed-range switch (A) to position L. For road speeds, set control to position H.
2. Slowly push throttle lever (C) to full forward (operating speed).
IMPORTANT:
Return throttle lever (C) to low idle position
before engaging header drives.
For field operation, always operate windrower
with speed-range control in field position and throttle lever fully forward (maximum engine RPM). Use controls to vary ground speed, reel speed and conveyor speed. All systems are designed for efficient operation at maximum engine RPM.
CAUTION: Check again to be sure all bystanders have cleared the area.
3. Slowly move variable ground speed lever (D) forward to desired speed.
CAUTION: Operate both steering wheel and variable speed lever slowly for familiarization. Remember
that steering is more sensitive when speed-range control is in Road Speed Position. Avoid the common tendency of new operators to over-steer.
4. In situations where more tractive (lugging)
power is required, for example, driving up a ramp, up a hill, or up out of a ditch: Be sure speed-range control is in field position and move the variable speed lever towards neutral. The effect of this is similar to down­shifting a standard transmission, increasing torque at the drive wheels.

To make a spin turn:
1. Move the variable speed lever (A) out of its
neutral detent (towards the seat, not forward or rearward).
2. Slowly turn the steering wheel in the desired
direction of turn. The windrower will pivot between the drive wheels.
3. To stop the turn, slowly turn the steering wheel
back to its centered position.
4. To increase the turn radius, slowly move the
ground speed lever away from neutral. Remember that this will increase ground speed as well.
5. To stop the turn, return all controls to neutral.

OPERATION Operating the Header
Correct operation reduces crop loss and allows cutting of more acres. The length of service you receive from your windrower depends upon thorough lubrication, and proper maintenance and adjustments.
CAUTION: Do not mount anything on the windrower tractor except the headers and attachments designed for use with it. Unapproved
attachments may change the stability and controllability of the machine.

OPERATION Header Angle
Header angle is adjustable by changing the length of the center link between header and tractor.
Header angle adjustment ranges: 910, 920, 930 Series Headers: 8° to 16° 940 Series Headers: 6° to 13° 960 Series Headers: 13° to 21° 970 Series Headers: 9.5° to 21°
NOTE: Above figures are guard angle in degrees below horizontal.
IMPORTANT: A flatter header angle is recom­mended for normal conditions. A flatter angle reduces sickle section breakage and reduces soil build-up at the cutterbar in wet conditions.
Use a steeper angle to cut very close to the ground, or for better lifting action of down crops.
IMPORTANT: Changing header angle will affect flotation. Steepening the header angle makes header heavier while flattening the header angle makes header lighter. Always check flotation after adjusting header angle.
To adjust header angle with mechanical link
1. Unlock collar (C) by tapping it in a counter-
clockwise direction.
2. Using a long punch in hole (D), turn the center
link until the desired header angle is reached. Shortening the link will give a flatter header angle, while lengthening the link provides steeper angles.
3. Lock collar (C) against link body by tapping in a
clockwise direction to secure the position.
To adjust header angle when cutting on the ground (without hydraulic option) When cutting with header on the ground, the header height switch can be used to adjust header angle "on the
go". Familiarize yourself with how the header reacts during this adjustment to take full advantage of the feature.
1. Lower header by pressing bottom of header height switch until cutterbar just touches ground. At this point,
cutterbar is at the flattest guard angle.
2. If a steeper angle is desired, continue pressing bottom of switch. This will steepen the guard angle until lift
cylinders are fully retracted.
3. To adjust angle from steeper to flatter, press the top of the header height switch to extend cylinders a small
amount. Once the flattest angle is reached, further activating the switch will lift the cutterbar off the ground.
Use this adjustment in combination with the center link adjustment (above) to achieve the desired range through which the header angle moves before header lifts off the ground.
See "Header Controls" in Operator's Station section for use of header height switch and cut height indicator with regard to header angle.
:
HEADER TILT HYDRAULIC
ADJUSTMENT
An optional kit is available which allows adjustment of header angle from the cab by means of a hydraulic cylinder. See “Options and Attachments” section for order numbers. See “Header Controls” in Operator’s Station section for identification of hydraulic header angle controls. IMPORTANT: For units with hydraulic header tilt option, be aware that when cutting on the ground and using the hydraulic center link to adjust header angle on the go, the flotation will be affected. To prevent excessive guard breakage when conditions are not suited to heavier float (e.g. rocky or wet), do not use the tilt control on the go. Instead, use the header height switch as described below.

Force required to lift the cutterbar off ground at each end of the header (with lift cylinders fully retracted): 910/920/932 Auger Headers: 100 to 120 lbs. (445 - 535 N) 912/922/933 Auger Headers & 942 Multi-Crop Header: 75 to 85 lbs. (335 - 380 N)
Draper Headers: 50 to 70 lbs. (220 - 310 N) Benefits of lighter float settings
:
1. Less cutting component breakage in rough or stony conditions.
2. Avoids soil build-up at cutterbar in wet conditions. Benefits of heavier float settings
:
1. When cutting very close to the ground, enables the cutterbar to follow ground contours.
NOTE: For all headers except 12’ & 15’ 972 Header, use top hole (A) in float linkage. For 12’ & 15’ 972 Header, use lower hole (B).
B
To adjust header float: NOTE: Because of end-to-end weight differential,
dimension (C) at left and right drawbolt will be
USE HOLE “B” FOR 12’ & 15’ 972 HEADER different to achieve equal float at both ends of header. Also, lighter headers will require a larger dimension (C), heavier headers a smaller dimension (C).
1. Raise header fully, shut off engine, remove key.
E
2. Loosen nut (D).
3. Turn spring drawbolt (E) clockwise to increase
float (which makes header lighter when lowered to ground).
Turn bolt counter-clockwise to decrease
float
D
(which makes header heavier when lowered).
4. Tighten nut (D) to lock position.
5. Lower header fully and check float at both ends
of cutterbar. Force required to lift cutterbar should be approximately the same at both ends.
IMPORTANT: Spring loaded gauge wheels
(available on some draper headers) have an effect on header float. See “Header Floatation”

Transporting the Windrower
TOWING THE WINDROWER ON A TRAILER
For transporting the windrower other than under its own power, a side mount trailer (A) carrying all four windrower wheels is recommended.
Also acceptable are side mount trailers (B) where the windrower tail wheels remain on the ground. For this type, tighten caster set screws, step 7, below.
For narrower headers, front or rear mount trailers may be used, providing local laws regarding width regulations are adhered to.
WARNING: When towing the windrower on a trailer:
1. Keep header fully raised and reel fully
lowered.
2. Chain windrower securely to trailer. Run
chains through triangular brackets (C) at rear of tractor frame legs and through anchor (D) at rear of frame. Be sure windrower weight is centered on trailer for stable load. Block drive wheels to prevent movement.
3. Transport width is approximately 20 ft. (6.1
m). Check local laws for width regulations and lighting or marking requirements.
4. Remember that when towing windrower
sideways or backwards, slow moving vehicle emblem, reflectors and warning lights are not easily visible. It is your responsibility to adequately mark the load when transporting in this fashion.
5. Set light switch to FLASHER position to
activate amber lamps.
6. Do not tow the windrow er on a roadw ay at
night, or in conditions which reduce visibility, such as fog or rain. The width of the load makes it unsafe to transport under these conditions.
7. If tow ing at speeds over 16 mph (26 km/h),
on a type (B) trailer:
a. Align caster wheels with trailer wheels. b. Tighten caster setscrews (E) to 20 ft. lbs.

Transporting the Windrower
TOWING WINDROWER WITHOUT TRAILER
The best method for transporting a disabled windrower is to haul it on a suitable trailer or flatbed. (See Towing Windrower on a Trailer.)
In emergency situations, for example, towing out of a field or into a shop, windrower may be towed without a trailer, providing the following precautions are followed:
1. Attach windrower to towing vehicle.
WARNING: A proper towing apparatus is critical to safe towing. Use the following guidelines:
Do not attach directly from hitch to walking
beam (B). Slope of tow bar w ill not provide proper transfer of braking force to windrower, causing loss of control.
For proper steering, towing apparatus
should be attached to both left and right hand frame members (C) and should attach to tow bar at same height (D) as towing vehicle hitch.
Towing apparatus should be removed for field operation, to avoid interference with windrow.
CAUTION: With final drives disengaged, the windrower may roll on a sloped surface. Before
disengaging final drives, attach windrower to towing vehicle. After towing, engage drives and park brake before detaching from towing vehicle.
2. Disengage final drives:
- Remove cover (A) at center of drive wheels.
- Replace with dished side facing in.
IMPORTANT: Failure to disengage final
drives before towing will result in serious transmission damage.
Do not exceed 16 mph (26 km/h) when towing
windrower. Do not use this towing method for normal transporting of windrower. Even with
final drives disengaged, rolling speeds of more than 16 mph (26 km/h) will cause final drive gears to run at excessive speeds, possibly destroying the unit.
After towing, reverse cover (A) to re-engage
final drives. Be sure plunger at center of wheel pops out to engage drive.

gasoline, naphtha or any volatile material for cleaning purposes. These materials may be toxic and/or flammable.
2. Store windrower in a dry protected place.
Never operate engine in a closed building. Proper ventilation is required to avoid exhaust gas hazards.
3. Remove the battery. Bring to full charge and
store in a cool, dry place not subject to freezing. Remember when working around storage batteries that all of the exposed metal parts are "live". Never lay a metal object across the terminals because a spark and short circuit will result.
4. Cover cutterbar and knife guards to prevent
injury from accidental contact.
Also:
5. If stored outside, always cover windrower with a waterproof tarpaulin or other protective material. This will
protect the switches, instruments, tires, etc. from inclement weather.
If no cover is available; seal air cleaner intake and exhaust pipe with plastic bags and/or waterproof tape.
6. If possible, block up windrower to take weight off tires. If it is not possible to block up the machine, increase
tire pressure by 25% for storage. Adjust to recommended pressure before next use.
7. Repaint all worn or chipped painted surfaces to prevent rust.
8. Lubricate the windrower thoroughly, leaving excess grease on fittings to keep moisture out of bearings.
Apply grease to exposed threads and sliding surfaces of components.
9. Check for worn components and repair. Tighten loose hardware and replace any missing hardware. See
Specifications section for torque charts.
10. Check for broken components and order replacements from your dealer. Attention to these items right away will save time and effort at beginning of next season.
11. Add rust inhibitor to the engine oil.

STORING FUEL
Buy good quality, clean fuel from a reputable
dealer.
Proper fuel storage is critically important. Keep
all dirt, water and other contaminants away from fuel.
Avoid storing fuel over long periods of time. If
you have a slow turnover of fuel in windrower tank or supply tank, add fuel conditioner to avoid condensation problems.
Store fuel in a convenient place away from
buildings.
REFUELLING WINDROWER
Never refuel the windrower when the engine is hot or running.
IMPORTANT: Do not fill tank completely; space is
required for expansion. A filled tank could overflow if exposed to a rise in temperature, such as direct sunlight.
Fill fuel tank daily day's operation. This prevents condensation in the tank as moist air cools overnight.
See "Fuels, Fluids and Lubricants" for recom­mended fuels.
IMPORTANT: Do not allow tank to empty. Running out of fuel can cause air locks and/or contamination of the fuel system. See "Fuel System Air Removal" in this section.
TANK CAPACITY is 75 U.S. gallons (284 litres).
FUEL TANK VENTING
If fuel tank cap requires replacement, be sure to order the original equipment part, which is NOT vented.
The fuel tank is vented by hose (A), which is connected to filler tube. Change filter (B) at end of vent hose annually
WARNING: To avoid personal injury or death from explosion or fire, do not smoke or allow flame or sparks near fuel tank when refuelling.

MAINTENANCE/SERVICE Hydraulic System: Header & Reel Lift
CYLINDER CONTROL VALVE RELIEF PRESSURE
Control valve (A), located under the R/H tractor floorboard, directs hydraulic flow to the header lift cylinders, reel lift cylinders and the cylinder used to engage the clutch for the sickle drive. The control valve relief pressure is pre-set to be sufficient for all header sizes and options. Should lift capacity problems develop, check and adjust cylinder control valve relief pressure as follows:
1. Lower header and reel fully, stop engine and remove
key from ignition.
2. The same relief valve protects both header and reel
lift circuits. It is most convenient to check relief pressure in the reel lift circuit.
For tractors with reel lift hydraulics
coupler (B) is located at left-hand leg.
For tractors without reel lift hydraulics
circuit may be tapped at Port "C" of the lift valve. Remove hose (C) to access port.
3. Attach a 3000 psi (20 MPa) pressure gauge to a
hose that is long enough to allow pressure to be read from the operator's seat. Attach hose to quick coupler or valve (see step 2) and position gauge to be visible from the seat.
4. Start engine and position throttle lever fully back
(low idle). When oil is warm (minimum 100° F (38° C)), activate the lift control for the circuit you have tapped (reel or header) and check gauge pressure reading.
5. Pressure should be 2400 to 2650psi (16.5 to 18.2
MPa) If not, proceed with adjustment: EXCEPTION: 36’ 972 Header requires 2500 psi (17.2 MPa).
6. Lower header and reel fully. Stop engine and remove
key.
7. To adjust relief setting:
Loosen jam nut at relief valve (D).
Turn the adjustment screw in 1/4 turn increments,
clockwise to increase relief pressure, counter­clockwise to decrease.
NOTE: 1/4 turn = approx. 80 psi change

FLOW CONTROL BLOCK
Flow control block (A), located under cab near ground speed linkage, provides hydraulic power to the header. The block divides pump output of 19 gallons per minute (gpm) and controls the flow of oil into two circuits. Flow is used by the various headers as follows:
Auger Header
Both circuits combine to supply oil to the reel drive. Flow can be varied from 6 to 19 gpm with either reel or conveyor speed control knob on cab console.
Harvest Header and Multi-Crop Header
The flow to each circuit (reel and conveyor) can be varied from 3 to 9 gpm.
Header Drive Relief Pressure
Overload protection for the reel and conveyor drives is provided by an internal relief valve in flow control block (A). Should stalling problems develop with one of the header hydraulic circuits, check and adjust relief pressure as follows:
1. Attach a 3000 psi (20 MPa) pressure gauge to a
hose that is long enough to allow pressure
gauge to be read from the operator's seat.
Attach pressure gauge hose to female coupler
(E) at the tractor right hand leg and position the
gauge to be visible from the seat.
2. Set controls as follows:
Start engine and run at operating speed.
Move header drive switch to engaged position.
Adjust reel speed control to minimum. (Reel
should be turning slowly.)
3. Pressure should be 2200 to 2350 psi (15.2 to
16.2 MPa). If not, proceed with adjustment:
4. Move header drive switch to disengaged
position. Shut off engine and remove key.
5. To adjust relief setting:
Loosen jam nut at relief valve (B).
Turn the adjustment screw in 1/4 turn
increments, clockwise to increase pressure, counter-clockwise to decrease.
6. Repeat checking and adjustment until relief
pressure is correct, then tighten jam nut at (B). IMPORTANT: If relief pressure does not increase
after adjusting the screw two or three times, check relief valve as follows: Remove relief valve (B) from flow control block. Check that no contaminant is preventing the spring-loaded poppet from properly seating against the valve body. Clean as required, and reinstall valve. Reset adjustment screw to original position before checking relief pressure.

HEADER DRIVE BELT
This belt runs from the bevel gear box output shaft to the header drive pulley. This drive provides power (through the driveline) for all mechanical header drives. The drive is engaged by means of an electric over hydraulic clutch activated by the header drive switch in cab. Belt tension is maintained by a hydraulic cylinder and manual adjustment of tension is not required.
NOTE: Engine will not start if header drive belt is engaged.
To remove header drive belt:
1. Remove header drive pulley shield.
2. Remove belt from header drive pulley (A).
3. At rear pulley, remove hardware at (C), loosen
the lower guide and remove lower belt strand.

HEADER DRIVE BELT: PULLEY FORE-AFT ALIGNMENT
Fore-aft misalignment of pulleys can cause a belt failure where the backing band splits between V­belt sections, as shown at (A).
Check and correct the pulley fore-aft alignment in the following order:
1. Rear pulley must be square to frame
To check, place a straight edge along side of
rear pulley and check that clearance to frame at
(L) and (M) is equal. To adjust, loosen nut (N)
and move R/H gearbox mount forward or back
to square rear pulley. Tighten nut (N) to secure
the position. NOTE: Dimension at (L) and (M) should be
approximately 17 mm (0.67"), but never less
than 13 mm (0.51") to allow for removal and
installation of drive belt.
2. Rear pulley must align with front pulley
pulley and check that dimension (C) at front pulley is 6 mm (0.24"). To adjust, loosen taper lock bushing (T)
at rear pulley and move pulley on gearbox shaft. Ensure that pulley hub or bushing does not contact
gearbox seal. Tighten bushing (T) to secure the position. NOTES: · If (C) is different than (D), see step 4.
· If 6 mm dimension can not be achieved by moving bushing (T), go back to step 1 and purposely misalign
rear pulley with frame to obtain 6 mm dimension at (C). Then proceed with steps 3 and 4.
3. Flat idlers must align with each other
(0.08"). To adjust idlers, bend mounting arms to suit. (It may be necessary to heat idler arms to permit
adequate bending.)
4. Front pulley must be square to rear pulley
pulley and check that dimension (E) is 6 mm (0.24"). To adjust, shim front pulley mounting plate at both
front bolts, or both rear bolts so that dimensions (C), (D) and (E) are all 6 mm (0.24").

HEADER DRIVE BELT: PULLEY VERTICAL ALIGNMENT
Vertical misalignment of front pulley can cause a belt failure where sections of the backing band are missing, as shown at (T). The missing sections will vary from 1/2 inch to 5 feet long. Failure starts with cracks across the backing band from one side to the other, followed by pieces falling off.
Front pulley (P) and two flat idlers must be vertically square (90°) to rectangular frame tube (R) as shown.
To adjust front pulley, shim the pulley mounting plate at both top bolts, or both bottom bolts depending on the direction of the misalignment.
To adjust flat idlers, bend mounting arms to suit. (It may be necessary to heat idler arms to permit adequate bending.)
HEADER DRIVE BELT GUIDES
Improper adjustment of belt guides can cause belt to jump one pulley groove. This will result in a belt failure characterized by one outer portion of backing band being frayed and separated from one V-belt as shown at (G). The other V-belts will still be attached to band and the band will not be cracked through from side to side.
Belt guides for the header drive belt should be adjusted so they do not rub belt when drive is engaged, but still support belt when drive is disengaged.
See adjustment details, next page.

TRANSMISSION OIL PRESSURE
Warning light and buzzer in cab will be activated when ignition switch is turned ON if transmission oil pressure is below approximately 40 psi (275 kPa) for Naturally Aspirated engine and 150 psi (1035 kPa) for the Turbo engine. Do not drive the windrower until light and buzzer go off. If light and buzzer stay on after engine starts, or if they activate during operation, shut engine off and check hydraulic oil level at reservoir. If oil level is adequate, measure charge pump pressure as described below.
CHARGE PUMP PRESSURE
The charge pump provides hydraulic power to the traction drive. To check charge pump pressure:
1. Remove supercharge line at (A). This line runs
between “SC” port on manifold and
transmission pump. Place a tee capable of
accepting a pressure gauge in the line.
2. Attach a 0 - 600 psi (4000 kPa) pressure gauge
to a hose that is long enough to allow pressure
gauge to be read from the operator's seat.
Attach hose to the tee inserted in Step 1.
3. Start engine and move throttle lever fully
forward. Pressure should be 270 to 290 psi (1860 to 2000 kPa).
If pressure is not within this range, adjust relief
pressure as follows:
4. Shut off engine and remove key.
5. To adjust relief setting:
Remove cap from relief valve (B) for access to
adjustment screw.
Loosen jam nut at adjustment screw.
Turn the adjustment screw in 1/4 turn
increments, clockwise to increase pressure, counter-clockwise to decrease.
6. Repeat checking and adjustment until relief
pressure is correct, then tighten jam nut and
replace cap at (B). IMPORTANT: If relief pressure does not increase
after adjusting the screw two or three times, check relief valve as follows: Remove relief valve (B) from flow control block. Check that no contaminant is preventing the spring-loaded poppet from properly seating against the valve body. Clean as required, and reinstall valve. Reset adjustment screw to original position before checking relief pressure.

MAINTENANCE/SERVICE Traction Drive: Neutral Lock and
Steering Checks
DANGER: To prevent machine run­away:
STOP ENGINE before adjusting steering
linkage or neutral interlock.
Never rewire or misadjust neutral interlock
so engine can be started with controls out of neutral.
Never start engine by shorting across
starter terminals. Machine will start with drive engaged and move if normal starting circuitry is bypassed.
Start engine only from operator's seat.
Never try to start engine with someone under or near machine.
Refer to proper start-up procedure in
Operation section.
A properly functioning system should operate as follows:
The starter should engage ONLY
ground speed lever is in neutral, the steering wheel is locked, and the header drive switch is in the off position.
Under these conditions, the machine should
not move after engine start-up.
If either of the above does not hold true, perform the following nine checks. Adjustments, if required are described following each check point. A troubleshooting section follows the checklist.
DANGER: To avoid severe personal injury or death caused by machine runaway, shut off engine and remove key before performing any of the following checks and/or adjustments.
1. Neutral Start Switch
connections are good at neutral start switch (A).
With controls in start-up position as described
above, plunger of switch must be compressed.
Adjust switch support if required. Do not over-
adjust switch support, as this will prevent pintle
arms from locking as described in Check # 3.
2. Header Drive Belt Switch:
connections are good at header drive belt
switch (B). With controls in start-up position,
(belt disengaged), plunger of switch must be
compressed. Adjust switch support if required.
