6.3.7 ADJUSTABLE CASTER TREAD
WIDTH
The rear casters can be adjusted to a narrow
tread width to allow loading and shipping without
having to remove them. A narrow tread width
also suits smaller headers by allowing more
space to the uncut crop and provides more
maneuverability around poles, irrigation inlets, or
other obstacles. A wider tread width is useful in
heavy crops that produce large windrows so that
runover is reduced.
Adjust the caster tread width as follows:
CAUTION
Park on a flat, level surface, header on the
ground and the ground speed lever in N-
DETENT position and steering wheel locked.
DANGER
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.
a. Raise rear of windrower slightly so that most of
the weight is off the casters, using a jack or
other lifting device under the frame where
shown.
NOTE
Lifting device should have a lifting
capacity of at least 5000 lb (2270 kg).
b. Remove six bolts (four on backside, two on
underside), and washers from left and right side
of walking beam.
c. Slide extensions inboard or outboard equal
amounts, and align holes at desired location.
NOTE
Use the caster wheels to assist in moving
the axle by rotating the caster so that
wheel is parallel to the axle.
NOTE
Illustration shows widest tread width.
IMPORTANT
Caster wheels must be equidistant from
center of Windrower.
