After

 

making

 

sure

 

that

 

the

 

area

 

is

 

clear

 

from

 

people:

 

‐

 

start

 

the

 

combine

 

harvester

 

and

 

cautiously

 

move

 

the

 

feeding

 

pipe

 

towards

 

the

 

corn

 

head

 

coupling

 

point;

 

‐

 

lower

 

the

 

pipe

 

so

 

that

 

it

 

is

 

a

 

few

 

centimetres

 

below

 

the

 

head

 

support

 

bar;

 

‐

 

position

 

the

 

combine

 

harvester

 

so

 

that

 

the

 

pipe

 

is

 

centred

 

over

 

the

 

corn

 

head

 

opening

 

and

 

move

 

the

 

pipe

 

forward

 

until

 

it

 

couples

 

completely

 

with

 

the

 

corn

 

head;

 

 

‐

 

slowly

 

raise

 

the

 

pipe

 

until

 

the

 

corn

‐

head

 

is

 

completely

 

off

 

the

 

ground

 

(a

 

few

 

centimetres).

 

 

If

 

the

 

coupling

 

is

 

not

 

correct,

 

lower

 

the

 

pipe

 

back

 

to

 

the

 

ground

 

and

 

lift

 

it

 

again.

 

This

 

should

 

correct

 

any

 

misalignment.

 

Before

 

lifting

 

the

 

corn

 

head

 

completely,

 

make

 

sure

 

that

 

the

 

adapter

 

is

 

properly

 

attached

 

to

 

the

 

head.

 

Secure

 

the

 

lower

 

hooks

 

to

 

the

 

coupling

 

point

 

only

 

after

 

making

 

sure

 

that

 

the

 

lifting

 

operations

 

can

 

be

 

performed

 

safely.

 

Then

 

connect

 

the

 

universal

 

joints

 

and

 

the

 

hydraulic

 

and

 

electrical

 

parts.

 

 

 

DANGER

 

MOVING

 

PARTS

 

AND

 

CRUSHING

 

During

 

installation,

 

no

 

one

 

must

 

be

 

allowed

 

to

 

stand

 

between

 

the

 

corn

 

head

 

and

 

the

 

combine

 

harvester.

 

 
 

The

 

incorrect

 

coupling

 

of

 

the

 

channel

 

to

 

the

 

corn

 

head

 

can

 

result

 

in

 

the

 

detachment

 

of

 

the

 

corn

 

head

 

and

 

cause

 

it

 

to

 

fall.

 

Failure

 

to

 

comply

 

with

 

the

 

above

 

can

 

result

 

in

 

death

 

or

 

serious

 

injury.

 

 
 

CAUTION:

 

verify

 

the

 

correct

 

tilt

 

angle

 

of

 

the

 

corn

 

head

 

in

 

relation

 

to

 

the

 

ground.

 

Failure

 

to

 

comply

 

with

 

this

 

instruction

 

can

 

result

 

in

 

increased

 

power

 

consumption

 

of

 

the

 

corn

 

head

 

or

 

the

 

breakage

 

of

 

a

 

stalk

 

chopper.

 

When

 

the

 

front

 

plates

 

of

 

the

 

assembly

 

touch

 

the

 

ground

 

the

 

rear

 

support

 

should

 

be

 

raised

 

by

 

70/90

 

mm.

 

 
 

 

 

If

 

the

 

tilt

 

angle

 

is

 

not

 

correct,

 

uncouple

 

the

 

head

 

and

 

adjust

 

the

 

coupling.

 

If

 

the

 

level

 

is

 

lower

 

than

 

70

 

mm,

 

increase

 

the

 

distance

 

between

 

the

 

top

 

coupling

 

pin

 

and

 

upper

 

beam

 

of

 

the

 

frame;

 

vice

 

versa,

 

if

 

the

 

level

 

is

 

higher

 

than

 

90

 

mm,

 

set

 

the

 

coupling

 

point

 

closer.

   

If

 

the

 

tilt

 

angle

 

is

 

correct,

 

lift

 

the

 

device

 

completely,

 

making

 

sure

 

that

 

the

 

head

 

does

 

not

 

knock

 

against

 

the

 

cabin

 

of

 

the

 

combine

 

harvester

 

(this

 

applies

 

to

 

folding

 

corn

 

heads).
