Opening A New Field

The mower-conditioner's swing and platform lift systems are controlled by the tractor's hydraulic systems. (Refer to your tractor operator's manual for operation.)

The cutting platform can be positioned from directly behind the tractor to full left-hand or right-hand operating positions.

When operating in a new field, cut the first round (A) with platform swung either to the left or right. Travel in the opposite direction (B) when coming back to pick up crop laid down by tractor in the opening round.
