Right and Left Hand
FIG. 20: Throughout this manual when reference is
made to Left Hand and Right Hand, it is determined by
standing behind the machine and facing the direction of
forward travel.
Header Lift Cylinder Stop
FIGS. 21–22: Disengaged Lift Ram Stop: A header lift
cylinder stop (1) is located on the Left Hand feeder
housing lift cylinder on the combine.
A "U" shaped piece of heavy metal called a Header Lift
Cylinder Stop (1) is pivoted on a pin near the outer end of
the lift cylinder rod (2). When the lift rams are fully
extended, the cylinder stop (1) can be pivoted upward.
The cylinder stop support hook (3) can be engaged into
the slot in the feeder housing side where the stop (1) is
carried while the combine is in operation.
mDANGER: NEVER permit anyone to get
under any part of header or feeder housing,
or between raised header and combine to
work, unless header lift cylinder stop is
engaged, and fully contacts the cylinder
rod, engine is stopped, brakes are set, and
the start key is removed. Be sure the Corn
Head is latched securely to the feeder
housing.
mDANGER: ALSO, to prevent any possible
accidental lowering of header and possible
injury, ALWAYS stop the engine, set brakes
and remove the start key during the time
operator or other person is between the
back of the raised header and combine and
reaches under the side of feeder housing to
engage or disengage the header lift cylinder
stop.

GENERAL INFORMATION
FIG. 23: Engaged Lift Ram Stop: When the lift rams
are fully extended the cylinder stop support hook can be
released from the slot in the feeder housing side and
pivoted downward until it fully contacts and surrounds
three sides of the lift cylinder rod (2). In this position the
rear end of the cylinder stop (1) is aligned with the front
end of the lift cylinder barrel (3). When the feeder housing
is lowered slightly, the end of the header lift cylinder stop
contacts the outer end of the lift ram barrel and makes
solid contact which holds the feeder housing and the
header attached to it, properly in the raised position.
With header lift cylinder stop properly in place, the header
cannot be lowered except by starting the engine and
actuating lift ram to release the header lift cylinder stop.

the header lift ram, the engine is stopped, the brake is set
and the key is removed from the start switch.
mDANGER: When operating with optional
automatic header lift and tilt in muddy
conditions or where trash may occur, the
drag rod sensors may become jammed in
the raised position and not permit the
header to drop in automatic operation.
When this or any malfunction occurs, DO NOT
