OPERATION
5. Use the following GSL functions to position the
center-link hook above the header attachment pin:
• Reel up (A) to raise the center-link
• Reel down (B) to lower the center-link
• Header tilt up (C) to retract the center-link
• Header tilt down (D) to extend the center-link
Figure 4.224: GSL
6. Adjust position of the center-link cylinder (A) with the
reel up and reel down switches on the GSL until the
hook is positioned above the header attachment pin.
IMPORTANT:
Hook release must be down to enable self-locking
mechanism. If the release is open (up), manually
push it down after hook engages header pin.
7. Lower center-link (A) onto the header with reel down
switch until it locks into position (hook release [B]
is down).
8. Check that center-link is locked onto header by
pressing the reel up switch on the GSL.

CAUTION
Check to be sure all bystanders have cleared the area.
9. Press the header up switch (A) to raise header to
maximum height.
NOTE:
If one end of the header does
NOT
fully raise,
rephase the lift cylinders as follows:
a. Press and hold the header up switch until both
cylinders stop moving.
b. Continue to hold the switch for 3–4 seconds.
Cylinders are now phased.
NOTE:
It may be necessary to repeat this procedure if
there is air in the system.
