This manual contains information on the MacDon Model CA20 Combine Adapter that allows attachment of the
MacDon Model D50 and D60 Harvest Header and the Model FD70 FlexDraper headers to various makes and
models of combines. This manual must be used in conjunction with your Header and Combine Operator's
Manual.
CAREFULLY READ ALL THE MATERIAL PROVIDED BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO UNLOAD, ASSEMBLE, OR
USE THE MACHINE.
Use this manual as your first source of information about the machine. If you follow the instructions given in this
manual, your CA20 Combine Adapter will work well for many years. If you require more detailed service
information, a Service Manual is available from your dealer.
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 dealer if
you need assistance, information, or additional copies of this manual.
NOTE: Right-hand (R/H) and left-hand (L/H) designations are determined from the operator’s position, facing
forward.
RECORD THE SERIAL NUMBER IN THE SPACE BELOW.

2.1 SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL
This safety alert symbol indicates important safety
messages in this manual and on safety signs on the
machine.
This symbol means:
• ATTENTION!
• BECOME ALERT!
• YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
Carefully read and follow the safety message
accompanying this symbol.
WHY IS SAFETY IMPORTANT TO YOU?
• ACCIDENTS DISABLE AND KILL
• ACCIDENTS COST
• ACCIDENTS CAN BE AVOIDED
2.2 SIGNAL WORDS
Note the use of the signal words DANGER,
WARNING, and CAUTION with safety
messages. The appropriate signal word for
each message has been selected using the
following guidelines:
CAUTION
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
that, if not avoided, may result in minor or
moderate injury. It is also used as a
reminder of good safety practices.
2.3 SAFETY SIGNS
•The safety signs appear on the machine at
the locations shown in the header
operator’s manual.
• Keep safety signs clean and legible at all
times.
• Replace safety signs that are missing or
become illegible.
• If original parts on which a safety sign was
installed are replaced, be sure the repair
part also bears the current safety sign.
•Safety signs are available from your Dealer.
2.3.1 SAFETY SIGN INSTALLATION
a. Be sure the installation area is clean and dry.
b. Decide on the exact location before you remove
the decal backing paper.
c. Remove the smaller portion of the split backing
paper.
d. Place the sign in position and slowly peel back
the remaining paper, smoothing the sign as it is
applied.
e. Small air pockets can be smoothed out or
pricked with a pin.
DANGER
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation
that, if not avoided, will result in death or
serious injury.
WARNING
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
that, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury. It is also used to alert
against unsafe practices.

2.4 GENERAL SAFETY
CAUTION
•The following are general farm safety
precautions that should be part of your
operating procedure for all types of
machinery.
•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.
A
B
•Provide a first-aid kit for use in case of
emergencies.
SAFETY
•Keep a fire extinguisher on the machine.
Be sure the extinguisher is properly
maintained and be familiar with its
proper use.
Keep young children away from
•
machinery at all times.
•Be aware that accidents often happen
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.
•Wear close-fitting
clothing and cover
long hair. Never wear
dangling items such
as scarves or
bracelets.
•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.
•Keep all shields in place. Never alter or
remove safety equipment. Make sure
driveline guards can rotate
independently of the shaft and can
telescope freely.
•Use only service and repair parts made
or approved by the equipment
manufacturer. Substituted parts may not
meet strength, design, or safety
requirements.
•Do not modify the machine.
Unauthorized modifications may impair
the function and/or safety and affect
machine life.
(continued next page)
Form 1690095 Model Year - 2009
SAFETY
•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.
•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.
• Use adequate light for the job at hand.
• 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.
•Never use gasoline, naphtha or any
volatile material for cleaning purposes.
These materials may be toxic and/or
flammable.
•When storing machinery, cover sharp or
extending components to prevent injury
from accidental contact.
2.5 HEADER LIFT CYLINDER LOCKOUTS - COMBINE
DANGER
To avoid bodily injury or death from fall of
raised machine, always engage lift cylinder
stops before going under header for any
reason. See your Combine Operator’s
Manual for instructions for use and storage
of header lift cylinder stops.
