are designed to cut and lay in windrows, a wide variety of grain, hay and specialty crops. Windrowing allows starting

the harvest earlier, protects the crop from wind damage, and gives you more flexibility in scheduling combine time.

The power unit (referred to in this manual as the “Windrower”), when coupled with one of the specially designed

auger,rotary, or draperheaders, provides a package which incorporates manyfeaturesand improvementsin design.

This manual must be used in conjunction with your Header Operator's Manual.
