headers, it can be set relative to the ground speed
of the windrower using the Header Index feature,
or can run independently. Refer to the Operator’s
Manual for your specific Header for windrowing
guidelines and recommended speeds.
6.5.6.1
Reel to Ground Speed

speed using the Header Index function allows the
operator to run the engine at lower rpm while
maintaining the desired ground and reel speed.
This mode requires:
a. setting the Minimum Reel Speed, and
b. setting the Reel Index.
NOTE
Reducing engine speed saves fuel and
reduces noise in the cab. Ground/cutting
speed can be maintained using this feature.
