WARNiNG
Place all controls in neutral or off, stop combine engine,
set parking brake, remove ignition key, set cylinder
stops, wait for all moving parts to stop, then properly
block machine before servicing, adjusting, repairing or
unplugging.
NOTE
Bolt half-clamps from the bottom up so the nuts are on
top. Because of limited space between reel arms, on
certain header sizes the brace clamp may not be need-
ed on the motor end of the reel.
Slide the brace clamps out to the reel support brackets
and tighten the bolts and nuts.
Bolt the half clamps over manifold, ensuring the mani-
fold is able to rotate by hand.
Attach hydraulic hoses to hydraulic motor.
