GENERAL SAFETY
•
Provide a first-aid kit for use in case of
emergencies.
•
Keep a fire extinguisher on the machine. Be
sure
the
extinguisher
is
properly
maintained and be familiar with its proper
use.
•
Keep young children away from machinery
at all times.
•
Be aware that accidents often happen when
the operator is tired or in a hurry to get
finished. Take the time to consider the
safest way. Never ignore warning signs of
fatigue.
•
Wear close-fitting clothing and cover long
hair. Never wear dangling
items such as scarves or
bracelets.
•
Keep hands, feet, clothing
and hair away from moving
parts. Never attempt to clear
obstructions or objects from
a machine while the engine
is running.
•
Keep all shields in place. Never alter or
remove safety equipment. Make sure
driveline guards can rotate independently
of the shaft and can telescope freely.
•
Use only service and repair parts made or
approved by the equipment manufacturer.
Substituted parts may not meet strength,
design, or safety requirements.
•
Do not modify the machine. Unauthorized
modifications may impair the function
and/or safety and affect machine life.
(continued next page)
CAUTION
The following are general farm safety
precautions that should be part of your
operating procedure for all types of machinery.
•
•
•
Protect yourself.
When assembling, operating and servicing
machinery, wear all the protective clothing
and personal safety devices that COULD be
necessary for the job at hand. Don't take
chances.
You may need:
• a hard hat.
• protective shoes with slip resistant
soles.
• protective glasses or goggles.
• heavy gloves.
• wet weather gear.
• respirator or filter mask.
• hearing protection. Be aware that
prolonged exposure to loud noise
can cause impairment or loss of
hearing. Wearing a suitable hearing
protective device such as ear muffs
(A) or ear plugs (B) protects against
objectionable or loud noises.

•
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.
•
Keep the area used for servicing machinery
clean and dry. Wet
or oily floors are
slippery. Wet spots
can be dangerous
when working with
electrical
equipment.
Be
sure all electrical
outlets and tools
are
properly
grounded.
•
Use adequate light
for the job at hand.
•
Keep machinery clean. Do not allow oil or
grease to accumulate on service platforms,
ladders or controls. Clean machines before
storage.
•
Never use gasoline, naphtha or any volatile
material for cleaning purposes. These
materials may be toxic and/or flammable.
•
When storing machinery, cover sharp or
extending components to prevent injury
from accidental contact.

RECOMMENDED TORQUES
C. METRIC BOLTS
A. GENERAL
The tables shown below give correct torque
values for various bolts and capscrews.
•
•
•
•
Tighten all bolts to the torques specified in
chart unless otherwise noted throughout this
manual.
Check tightness of bolts periodically, using
bolt torque chart as a guide.
Replace hardware with the same strength
bolt.
Torque figures are valid for non-greased or
non-oiled threads and heads unless
otherwise specified. Do not grease or oil
bolts or capscrews unless specified in this
manual. When using locking elements,
increase torque values by 5%.

UNLOADING AND ASSEMBLY
STEP 10. INSTALL TALL CROP
FEED PLATES
The tall crop feed plates assist the feeding of tall
crops into the conditioner by encouraging
material flow from behind the hourglass
deflectors.
They will degrade the cutting
performance of the cutterbar if they are used in
medium to light alfalfa, and so should not be
installed in those types of crops. The feed
plates are designed for installation on the two
inboard hourglass deflectors and only on 16 ft
headers. They are stored inside the RH side
drive compartment, except for grass seed
headers, which have them factory installed.
A
For Grass Seed headers go to STEP 11.
ATTACH HEADER TO TRACTOR. To install
feed plates, proceed as follows:
c.
Remove nuts (A) securing two feed plates to
side of compartment and remove plates.
CAUTION
Exercise caution when working around the
blades. Blades are sharp and can cause
serious injury. Wear gloves when handling
blades.
d. Place a block of wood between discs to prevent
deflector from turning.
a. Open cutterbar doors.
