Adjusting Header Angle
Header angle can be adjusted using the center-link between the combine and the header.
Refer to your combine operator’s manual for adjustment details.
3.7.5
Reel Speed
Reel speed is one of the factors that determines how crop is moved from the cutterbar onto the drapers.
The reel performs best when it appears to be driven by the ground. It should move the cut crop evenly through the
cutterbar and onto the drapers without bunching and with minimal disturbance.
In standing crop, reel speed should be slightly higher than, or equal to, ground speed.
In
fl
attened crop or crop that is leaning away from the cutterbar, the reel speed needs to be higher than the ground
speed. To achieve this, either increase the reel speed or decrease the ground speed.
Excessive shattering of grain heads or crop loss over the header backtube may indicate that the reel speed is too
high. Excessive reel speed also increases reel component wear and overloads the reel drive.
Slower reel speeds can be used with nine-bat reels, which is advantageous in shatter prone crops.
NOTE:
For more information about converting a six-bat reel to a nine-bat reel for 30- and 35-ft. headers. Refer to
6.1.3 PR15 Tine Tube Reel Conversion Kit, page 446
.
For recommended reel speeds in speci
fi
c crops and conditions, refer to
3.6.2 Header Settings, page 43
.
The reel speed is adjustable using the controls in the combine cab. Refer to your combine operator’s manual for
adjustment details.
Optional Reel Drive Sprockets
Optional reel drive sprockets for use in special crop conditions are available as an alternative to the
factory-installed sprocket.
The header is factory-equipped with a 19-tooth reel drive sprocket which is suitable for most crops. Other sprockets
are available that provide more torque to the reel in heavy cutting conditions or allow for higher reel speeds in light
crops when operating at increased ground speeds. Refer to Table
3.7 Optional Reel Drive Sprockets, page 73
, and
contact your MacDon Dealer for ordering information.
