Operation and Function of Headland Management System HMS (If Equipped)

By means of the HMS, the differential lock, front wheel drive (at "automatic"), and rear PTO can be selected singly or together so that they switch on or off automatically when raise/lower switch (B) is actuated.

Select differential lock, FWD and/or rear PTO as necessary. The indicator lights glow continuously. Activate the system by pressing HMS switch (A). A whistle signal is heard and the indicator lights start to flash quickly.

Before turning at the end of the field, the implement is raised by means of raise/lower switch (B). The differential lock cuts out immediately, the rear PTO after 10% of lift travel and FWD when the implement has reached its maximum height. The indicator lights go from flashing quickly to flashing slowly. If the implements are raised by means of the hitch control lever, the HMS will NOT react.

When the implement is lowered again, the differential lock and FWD switch themselves on immediately (indicator lights go from flashing slowly to flashing quickly). For safety reasons, the rear PTO must be switched on manually.

To turn off the HMS automatic mode, press HMS switch (A) again. A whistle signal is heard and the indicator lights go from slow flashing to continuous glow.

NOTE: The maximum capability of the HMS is described above. However, it is possible to include only one or two functions in the HMS mode. Functions included in the HMS mode can be switched off at any time (to avoid wasting time starting up the rear PTO, it can be left running, e.g. when mowing). To do this, switch off the HMS, switch off any function(s) that are not required, and switch on the HMS again. FWD can be set to continuous at any time, regardless of the HMS mode (e.g. for turning at the end of steep, wet fields). Do this by moving the FWD switch from the "automatic" position to the "on" position.
