Figure 7.250: Float Indicator Box
NOTE:
Indicator (A) should be at position 0 (B) with the header
(152 mm [6 in.]) off the ground. If not, the float sensor output
voltage should be checked. Refer to Step
4, page 159 .
When the header is on the ground, the indicator should be
at position 1 (C) for low ground pressure, and at position
4 (D) for high ground pressure. Crop and soil conditions
determine the amount of float to use. The ideal setting is as
light as possible without header bouncing or missing crop.
Operating with heavy settings prematurely wears the
cutterbar wearplates.
