FLOAT PRESETS
A-Series, R-Series, or D-Series -
Without Hydraulic Deck Shift
FLOAT PRE-SET / DECK SHIFT switch allows for
auto-memory of three different trim cylinder
positions. For example:
#1 - Border Width LH 5.0, RH 6.5
#2 - Normal Width LH 5.0, RH 5.0
#3 - Rocky Width LH 6.5, RH 6.5
D-Series with Hydraulic Deck Shift
DECK SHIFT switch activates hydraulic deck shifting
when the header is engaged, and allows for automemory of trim cylinder adjustments in each delivery
opening position.
NORMAL START - Engine Temp above 60°F (16°C)
1. Main battery disconnect switch - POWER ON.
2. GSL in N-DETENT. HEADER DRIVE switch OFF.
3. Seat Belt ON. Set throttle to START position - “fully back”.
4. Sound horn three times.
5. Turn ignition key to RUN position. Single loud tone sounds.
Engine warning lights flash in self-test mode, and CDM displays
“HEADER DISENGAGED” and “IN PARK”.
6. Turn ignition key to START position until engine starts.
Release key. Allow engine to run at IDLE until temperature
reaches 100F (40C).
7. CDM displays programmed header data for 5 seconds,
and then returns to previous display.
CDM PROGRAMMING MODE: TRACTOR SETUP
(See M155 Operator’s Manual for complete instructions and detailed information)
HEADER INDEX MODE
Enhanced reel/conveyor speed controls may be
desirable in variable crop and terrain conditions.
Allows the reel and conveyor to be driven by
reference to ground speed, so that header systems
will speed up and slow down as ground speed
changes.
Operation of Header Index for REEL SPEED:
(A and D Series)
1. With all bystanders clear, start windrower, and
engage the header.
2. While stationary, with the GSL in PARK, use the
REEL SPEED control switch to set a „Minimum
Reel Speed‟.
3. When operating at grounds speeds faster than
the Minimum Reel Speed + Header Index value,
REEL SPEED display will change to
REEL INDEX. Using the GSL REEL SPEED
switch, Header Index can be adjusted.
4. Reel speed will be equal to the greater of:
‘G round Spee d + Inde x Va lue’ O R
‘Minimum Reel Speed’.
Operation of Header Index for DRAPER SPEED:
(D Series Only)
Follow instructions above, using the CDM AUGER/
DRAPER speed control, rather than the GSL REEL
SPEED switch.

Adjusts knife speed on draper and auger headers.
Every header size and type of knife drive will have a different range for the knife speed.
Refer your header Quick Card for optimal settings.
KNIFE OVERLOAD SPEED (Auger / Draper) to be set at 75% of desired knife speed.
DISC OVERLOAD SPEED (Rotary) should be set to 1300 rpm.
Calibration of overload sensor (reel / draper / knife / disc system).
See Overload Recommendations Chart below.
Auger and Draper headers only.
References and operates „Reel Only‟ or „Reel and Drapers‟ in relation to ground speed.
Set functions to be controlled by RETURN TO CUT (RTC) mode.
Sets header-up height in RETURN TO CUT (RTC) mode. Range is 4.0 (min) to 10.0 (max).
Activates electrical controls for Double Windrow Attachment when installed.
If “YES” selected, REEL FORE-AFT and DWA RAISE / LOWER switches will swap functions.
Enables the express UP and DOWN features in RETURN TO CUT (RTC) mode.
Set cut width according to operating width. Calibration of acre counter.
Header ID displayed on CDM at top right.
Draper Header only. Activates hydraulics for conditioner and feed deck drive systems.
Selection will appear only with an auger header attached.
Allows REEL SPEED to display in RPM or MPH / KPH.
Select installed tire size, for ground speed and acre counter calibration.
ENGINE INTERMEDIATE SPEED CONTROL. Engine RPM can be limited to a specified
value while header is engaged. Scroll to desired RPM value. Use HAZARD key to set.
Allows header functions to be locked from Operator control.
(for example: Locking reel speed and/or reel fore-aft controls from Operator.)
Allows Operator to view control lock status, and engine hours when status was established.
(for example: REEL FORE-AFT - 224.5 HRS LOCKED).
