17.2 - Physical Switches
The header functions are controlled via three
physical switches that run along the bottom of the
Automatix Lite control panel.
Header Tilt & Reel Height Switch
Cutting Mode Switch
Air Pressure Switch
Fig. 97 - Physical switch locations
The functions of these switches are as follows:
17.2.1 - Cutting Mode Switch:
The cutting mode switch is used to select your
desired cutting mode.
FLEX mode
When FLEX mode is
selected, the cutter bar
header height sensors
become active and the air
pressure recommendation
is low in order to allow the
cutter bar to flex to follow the terrain. Used when
cutting close to the ground.
RIGID mode
When RIGID mode is
selected, the header
height sensors become
disabled (as shown on
the display) and the air
pressure recommendation
is quite high. High air
pressure prevents the cutter bar from flexing.
Used when cutting high off the ground.
17.2.2 - Air Pressure Switch
The air pressure switch has three possible
positions. This switch should be left in the middle
position after the desired air pressure is achieved.
When adjusting air pressure, always monitor the
pressure on the display screen. DO NOT exceed
120psi or the pressure release valve will dump all
the air from the pressure tank.
Add Air Pressure
Move the switch to the
left until the ‘+’ symbol is
highlighted, this activates
the air compressor and will
start adding pressure to the
air system. The more air
added to the system, the
more RIGID the cutter bar becomes.
Dump Air Pressure
Move the switch to the
right until the ‘-’ symbol
is highlighted. This will
open the a valve in the
pressure system that will
slowly dump the air from
the system. The less air
in the system the more FLEXible the cutter bar
becomes.
