6.5.7 DRAPER SPEED
Draper speed affects the orientation of stalks in
the windrow. Faster draper speeds tend to form
herringbone or dovetail configurations. Refer to
your header operator’s manual for guidelines on
what speed to use.
The draper speed can be set with switches on
the CDM relative to the ground speed of the
windrower with the Header Index function, or
can run independently.
CAUTION
Check to be sure all bystanders have cleared
the area.
6.5.7.1 Draper To Ground Speed
Setting the speed of the draper relative to
ground speed using the Header Index function
allows the operator to run the engine at lower
rpm while maintaining the desired ground and
draper speed. This mode requires a) setting the
Minimum Draper Speed, and b) setting the
Draper Index.
NOTE
Reducing engine speed saves fuel and
reduces noise in the cab. Ground/cutting
speed can be maintained using this
feature.
a. Set
Draper Minimum Speed
as follows:
IMPORTANT
Windrower can be moving but must be
less than minimum draper speed.
NOTE
DISPLAY will flash ##.# MIN CONV (MPH
or KPH) to prompt the operator to change
the minimum set point or increase ground
speed if Ground Speed Plus Index is less
than the Minimum Draper Speed Set
Point.
b. Set
Draper Index
as follows while driving
windrower at normal operating speed and
greater than minimum draper speed.
NOTE
See examples on following page.
