When the header is
fi
rst attached to the windrower, the windrower control module (WCM) receives a code from the
header that determines the knife speed range and the minimum speed.
The desired speed can be programmed on the cab display module (CDM) and stored in the WCM memory so the
knife will operate at the original set-point after the header is detached and reattached to the windrower.
If no header code is detected, the CDM displays NO HEADER and the knife speed reverts to the Operator’s selection
from a range of 800–1000 strokes per minute.
Refer to the header operator’s manual for the suggested knife speed for a variety of crops and conditions.
NOTE:
The knife speed cannot be programmed outside the range speci
fi
ed for each header.
