SECTION 7. OPERATION
7.18 HEADER LEVELLING
The windrower linkages are factory set to provide the proper level for the header, and should not normally require adjustment. The float springs are not used to level the header.
If the header is not level, check the tire pressures on the windrower ensuring they are properly inflated. Refer to your Self-Propelled Windrower
Operator’s Manual.
If the header is still not level, then adjustment to the windrower linkages is required. Refer to the appropriate section in the Self-Propelled
Windrower Operator’s Manual.
7.19 UNPLUGGING CUTTERBAR
a. Stop forward movement of the machine, and disengage header drives. b. With header on ground, back up several feet, and engage header drive clutch.
CAUTION
Lowering rotating reel on a plugged cutterbar will damage the reel components.
c. If plug does not clear, disengage header drive clutch and raise header fully.
WARNING
Stop engine, and remove key before removing plugged material from header. A child or even a pet could engage the drive.
d. Shut off engine, remove key, and engage park brake. e. Engage header lift cylinder locks.
WARNING
Wear heavy gloves when working around sickle.
f. Clean off cutterbar by hand.

If sickle plugging persists, see Section 9
