Operating with an R-Series Header
The R85 13-foot header and the R80 13- and 16-foot
headers are shipped without the motor and hoses installed
and the installation of a separate motor and hose bundle
is necessary.
If required, obtain kit MD #B5510 from your MacDon
Dealer, and install it in accordance with the instructions
supplied with the Kit.
A disc drive kit (MD #B4657) is also required for windrower
to operate the header.

Disc Speed
Disc speed is ideal when a clean cut is achieved. Crop types and conditions usually in
fl
uence the disc and
forward speeds.
When the windrower is
fi
rst attached to the header, the windrower control module (WCM) receives a code from the
header determining the speed range and minimum speed.
The desired speed is programmed on the cab display module (CDM) and stored in the WCM memory so the discs
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 disc speed reverts to a preset range that
can be changed by the Operator.
Refer to the header operator’s manual for the suggested disc speed for a variety of crops and conditions.
