(10) Adjusting the header height when
harvesting
Under normal condition (crops grow normally), the
harvesting height should be 60-70cm from the spike tip.
[IMPORTANT]
If the harvesting height exceeds 70cm, the power
consumption will be increased and energy
efficiency be decreased; the threshing chamber
may be accumulated with dust, swing separator be
blocked, and threshing loss be increased, leading to
poor screening.
If the harvesting height is below 60cm, friction effect
in the threshing chamber will be impaired and grain
loss be increased. Put the chaff discharge adjust
lever to “Close” to reduce loss.
(11) Push the main shift lever forward to
start harvesting slowly
Put the main shift lever to “Standard” or lower speed gears in
case of grain loss during “High Speed” harvesting of ledged,
moist, immaturely or high-yield crops.
[Note]
If the range shift lever is to be operated during
traveling, stop the machine before switching.
(12) Upon completion of harvesting, put
the header clutch lever to “OFF”, and
after no grain is discharged from the
outlet, move the threshing clutch lever
to “OFF”, and then turn off the engine.
Harvesting the ridged crops
Harvesting height: To prevent missing during harvesting,
Reel height: To be lowered down as possible.
Front/rear position of reel: The reel should be extended to
an appropriate height to prevent missing in gripping and
reeling up mud.
Change to a low-speed sprocket (accessory) and
slow down the reel speed.
