INTRODUCTION

In order to ensure that the header/pickup will operate smoothly and efficiently for years to come, it is important that it be correctly set up and properly maintained. Windrow headers with pickup attachments are designed to pick up windrows of agricultural products such as wheat, soybeans, canola, barley, etc. and small seed pick ups, and are only intended for such use.

Contained in this manual are safety precautions, operating instructions, and service and maintenance procedures for the PW7 Pickup Header, and Series IV Rake-Up and SwathMaster pickups. The units covered in this manual are compatible with John Deere 50 Series and 60 Series combines, Case IH Combines, New Holland Combines, Gleaner/Massey/Challenger Combines and Claas/Lexion combines.

The following header sizes are covered in this manual:

 

13 foot

 

15 foot

 

The following pickup models are covered in this manual:

SECTION 2 SAFETY

2.1 GENERAL SAFETY PRACTICES

All operators must:

Be instructed in the safe and proper use of this machine and understand all safety signs and instructions in this manual.

Carefully read all safety messages in this manual and on your machine.

Keep all safety signs in good condition. Replace when necessary.

Use and maintain all safety lights and devices.

Wear necessary protective clothing when operating or servicing machinery.

Be prepared for emergencies by keeping a first aid kit and emergency numbers easily accessible.

Have authorized personnel repair/replace any damaged or deteriorated parts immediately to reduce the risk of personal injury.

Find a spacious, clear, and level surface to perform any maintenance or adjustments.

Always shut-off machinery before performing any adjustments or service.

Never remove obstructions from running machinery.

Modifications to the machine not approved by MacDon Industries Ltd. are not allowed. Unapproved modifications may affect the safety, reliability, and durability of the machine and void warranty.

2.2SAFETY DURING COMBINE ATTACHMENT

Find a spacious, clear, and flat work area.

Read and understand all installation procedures. Refer to applicable section in this manual for reference.

Check for obstructions on combine, header, and in work area before starting.

Lower header and pickup to ground or engage feeder safety locks, shut off combine, remove key and wait until all moving parts have stopped before working around header/combine.

Take extreme care when working around hydraulic lines. Hydraulic fluid under high pressure can penetrate the skin and cause serious tissue damage. Seek immediate medical attention if skin penetration occurs.

At all times keep body parts away from the pickup & header when moving.

Never operate machinery without all shields in place.

Never engage pickup drive with people near machine.

Extremity Lights

The header comes with a left and right hand extremity light that works in conjunction with the flashing/signal combine lights. For bulb replacement, see appropriate section in this manual.

ATTENTION: Reflectors that are damaged or worn are to be replaced immediately.

NOTE: Red and Orange Reflectors are visible from the rear; amber is visible from the front. New reflectors are available from your dealer.

B)Drive Shaft Safety

Shields are in place for your protection. Replace any worn or missing shields.

Drive shaft shields are to rotate freely at all times (free from binding while chained). Replace worn shield bearings promptly.

Never operate header without shields in place.

Never make modifications to the drive shaft and shields.

ALWAYS store the drive shaft in its storage holder. Never use safety chains to support drive shaft.

DO NOT step on the drive shaft.

Any servicing to the drive shaft must only be done when the header is lowered to the ground or the combine feeder house locks are engaged, the machine is shut off, the ignition key is removed and all moving parts have stopped. Never make adjustments to, or clean a running combine.

Make sure drive shaft is attached properly before operation.

Keep any loose fitting clothing, jewelry, or long hair away from moving parts, components, or retainer chains.

Completing Hook Up To Your Combine

Each combine manufacturer has a different design for lower locking mechanism on the header. The locking mechanism is an important step in protecting your header/pickup from damage.

On all models the feeder house must be properly installed onto the header before the locks could be activated.

ATTENTION: Do not operate or move header without engaging the lower locking mechanism. Failure to do so may cause damage to your equipment.

3.1.1 JOHN DEERE

50 Series:

a)Take the John Deere locking pin out of its storage position and slide it into the slot of the header.

b)Loosen the nuts of the header locking plates.

c)Position the plate so that the lower corner of the plate rests against the pin.

d)Check that pin moves freely in and out.

e)Tighten the header adjustment plate nuts.

f)Modification to hydraulic lines and wiring harnesses may be required if adapter kit is not available from local dealer.

f)Insert lock pins in place using hole #1. Pin must be at the top of the slot as shown.

Note: On combines equipped with feeder house fore-aft tilt, the feeder house face must be positioned so that the header floor is parallel to the ground when header is in operating position.

Combines with auto-contour:

Extend cylinder to approximately the middle position. Install guide plates as above to lock the auto contour. Guide plates are stored in the document holder on the back side of the header.

ATTENTION: Not installing locking guide plates on combines with auto-contour may lead to pickup disconnecting from combine, especially when auto-contour is tilted to one side. Severe machine damage can result.

g)Disengage pickup storage braces. See Storage Brace Disengagement in this manual.

ATTENTION: Never lower header to the ground while the locking pins are in place and storage braces are engaged. This will cause severe damage to your machine

ATTENTION: Locking pins must be correctly engaged into feeder slots. Operating the unit with locking pins disengaged or improperly engaged can severely damage the unit.

3.3FEEDERHOUSE WIDTH CONVERSION

For John Deere, Case IH, New Holland and Agco Combines, see the instructions supplied with the mechanical completion package to initially configure the header to suit your combine. For Lexion combines, machines are factory configured for narrow combine feeder. Before use with a Lexion combine with wide feeder house, the header must be reconfigured using the supplied parts as follows:

Lexion – Narrow to Wide:

NOTE: These instructions can also be used to convert a header configured for a John Deere narrow feeder combine to a wide feeder house. For Agco combines, see your dealer for conversion instructions for the three available feeder house widths.

a)Remove the two outer auger hand hole covers to gain access to inside of auger.

Hand hole Covers

b)Remove the auger flight extensions. These are the innermost pieces of flighting on each side of auger center.

Flight extension

c)Remove finger hole covers and add two additional auger fingers and finger guides at the next two open locations at both sides of the auger (total of 4). These are shipped in the document case at back of header.

d)Reinstall hand hole covers.

e)Remove lower stripper bar and stripper bar extensions.

f)Move lower stripper bars outward one hole so they are flush with combine feeder house opening and bolt to the header floor.

Extension bracket/bars

h)Adjust stripper bars. See section 4.10 in this manual.

i)Save all removed components for conversion back to narrow opening at a later date if necessary. In this case, the process described above must be reversed.

3.4DISENGAGING STORAGE BRACES / REMOVING CYLINDER BRACES

NOTE: Before disengaging storage braces, raise the header so wheels are just off the ground.

Pickups are delivered with the storage and cylinder braces engaged. Storage and cylinder braces are located on each side of the pickup. Before the pickup can be used, storage braces must be disengaged or machine will be damaged.

Storage Brace Disengagement

a)Remove clevis pin.

b)Rotate storage brace upward into the stiff-arm clevis.
