Part #169441 $15
This Manual contains instructions for “SAFETY”, “OPERATION”, and “MAINTENANCE/SERVICE” information for your new MacDon Models D50 and D60 Harvest Header® for self-propelled windrowers.
D50 HARVEST HEADER®
D60 HARVEST HEADER®
1 INTRODUCTION
This instructional manual contains operating and maintenance information on the MacDon D50/D60 Harvest Headers. They are designed to serve a dual function in your grain, hay, and specialty crop harvesting operation. Teamed with your self-propelled windrower power unit and optional hay conditioner, the D50 and D60 Harvest Headers will cut and lay crop into uniform fluffy windrows.
Windrowing allows starting the harvest earlier, protects the cop from wind damage, and gives you more flexibility in scheduling combine time.
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 here, your Header will work well for many years.
If you require more detailed service information, a Service Manual is available from your MacDon 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.
This manual must be used in conjunction with your Self-Propelled Windrower Operator's Manual.
Keep this manual handy for frequent reference and to pass on to new Operators or Owners.
A storage case for this manual is located inside the header left endshield.
Call your MacDon Dealer if you need assistance, information, or additional copies of this manual.

(A) or ear plugs (B) protects against objectionable or loud noises.
•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.

SECTION 3. SAFETY
•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.
•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.
