3.3 Attaching A40D Headers to M Series SP Windrowers
Header drive hydraulic hoses and electrical harness are located on the left cab-forward side of the windrower.
Refer to the following procedures for electrical and hydraulic connections:
IMPORTANT:
M150, M155, M155 E4 , and M200 Windrowers with M Series Reverser kit (MD #B4656) installed need to have the
reverser valve hose plumbing changed if switching between a D Series Draper Header with a conditioner to an
A40D Auger Header. Changing this plumbing prevents improper operation and damaging the reel drive motor.
Refer to 3.3.5 Configuring Reverser Valve Jumper Hose for A40D, page 49 and (if necessary) to M Series Reverser
Kit Installation Instructions (MD #169213), available from our dealer-only site ( https://portal.macdon.com ) (login
required).
NOTE:
Header reel motor hose routing must be properly configured before attaching the header to a windrower. Hose
routing on the header is factory-configured for M150, M155, M155
E4 , and M200 Self-Propelled Windrowers.
Header hose routing must be reconfigured if the header is being used on M100, M105, or M205 Self-Propelled
Windrowers and back again.
Refer to the following procedures:
•
3.3.4 Attaching A40D to M205, page 45
•
3.3.6 Routing A40D Hydraulic Drive Hoses, page 50
Refer to your windrower operator
’
s manual for procedures to mechanically attach the auger header to the self-
propelled windrower, and for modifications (if required) to the windrower hydraulic connections.
