Attaching an R or R1 Series Header
R and R1 Series Rotary Disc Header can be attached to an M155 Self-Propelled Windrower.
NOTE:
The 18.4 x 26 drive tire is recommended on the M155 Self-Propelled Windrower when operated with a 4 m (13 ft.) R/R1
Series Rotary Disc Header. These drive tires are reversible and should be mounted inset at 3792 mm (149.3 in.) to provide
maximum clearance to uncut crop. Mounting these tires outset or mounting all other drive tire options will result in
windrower tires slightly wider than the header width. This may cause some uncut crop to be trampled by tires in turns and
corners during windrower operation, and may leave some uncut strips of crop in the windrower
’
s next pass.

These headers are shipped without the motor or hoses
installed, so a separate motor, hose bundle, and hydraulic valve
