OPERATION
3.5 Adjusting Deck Angle
The Double Windrow Attachment (DWA) deck angle can be adjusted to maximize performance and prevent contact
with the windrower.
To adjust the deck angle relative to the right drive tire, refer to 3.5.1 Adjusting Deck Angle Relative to the Drive Tire,
page 32 .
To adjust the deck angle relative to the ground, refer to 3.5.2 Adjusting Deck Angle Relative to the Ground, page 33 .
NOTE:
If set up with an R-Series Rotary Disc Header, the DWA deck will only be in its most forward position when the
windrower is running. The lift cylinder is single acting and not pressurized when the windrower is shut off. When
the windrower is running, a supply of low pressure oil moves the deck forward.
3.5.1 Adjusting Deck Angle Relative to the Drive Tire
The deck angle, relative to the right-hand drive tire, is
adjustable with turnbuckle (A).

the deck and the right-hand drive tire is approximately
100 mm (4 in.).
