6.4.3 LEVELLING
The windrower linkages are factory set to
provide the proper level for the header and
should not normally require adjustment. If the
header is not level, perform the following checks
prior to adjusting the leveling linkages. The float
springs are not used to level the header.
a. Check windrower tire pressures.
b. Place float pins in locked out location (A).
c. Level header as follows:
1. Park windrower on level ground.
2. Raise header fully and hold momentarily to
allow lift cylinders to re-phase.
3. Set header approximately 6 inches (150
mm) off ground and check that member (B)
is against link (C). Note high and low end of
header.
4. Place wooden blocks under header
cutterbar and legs, and lower header onto
blocks so that members (B) lift off links (C).
Stop engine.
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.
5. On high side, remove nut, washer and bolt
(D) that attaches shims (E) to link.
6. Remove one or both shims (E) and reinstall
the hardware (D).
d. Start engine and raise header slightly. Check
level of header.
e. If additional levelling is required, install the
removed shim on the opposite linkage.
f. Once header is level, return float pins to their
engaged position (F).

If required, additional shims are available
from your dealer
