OPERATION
IMPORTANT:
• Changing header angle will affect fl otation slightly because it has the effect of making the header lighter or
heavier.
• To prevent excessive guard breakage when conditions are not suited to heavier fl oat (e.g., rocky or wet), do
NOT
use the TILT CONTROL “on the go”. Instead, use the HEADER HEIGHT switch.
