Connecting R216 SP Hydraulics and Electrical to an M1240 Windrower
The R216 SP hydraulics connection procedure varies depending on the windrower configuration:
•
Draper header ready windrowers include one set of hydraulic quick couplers which are compatible with the header
drive hoses on the R216 SP. One additional set of quick couplers (MD #B6277) is required.
•
Rotary disc header ready windrowers include hard plumbed hydraulics connections.
NOTE:
Quick couplers can be installed if desired on disc-only configured windrowers
–
two sets of quick coupler bundle B6277 are
required to do so.
IMPORTANT:
To prevent contamination of the hydraulic system, use a clean rag to remove dirt and moisture from all (fixed and
movable) hydraulic couplers.
1.
Open the windrower
’
s left platform. For instructions, refer to windrower operator
’
s manual.
2.
Using a clean rag, remove dirt and moisture from the couplers on the left side of the windrower frame.

3.
Retrieve hydraulic hoses (A) from the header and route the
hose bundle under the windrower frame.
NOTE:
Adding anti-seize to the hose holder pin will make future
removal easier.
4.
Insert pin (B) into hole (C) in windrower frame.
IMPORTANT:
Route hydraulic hoses as straight as possible, and avoid
rub/wear points that could damage the hoses. To prevent
damage, hoses should have enough slack to pass by the
multicoupler bracket without contact. To adjust hose slack,
loosen hose holder (B) on the front windrower leg, adjust
hoses, then retighten the hose holder.
