Towing Windrower

CAUTION: Windrower is free to move, the parking brake is inoperative, when the power wheel hubs are disengaged.

Do not exceed a maximum speed of 32 km/h (20 mph) while towing the windrower.

IMPORTANT: If it is necessary to tow the windrower, the front drive wheel hubs MUST be disengaged.

1. Park the windrower on flat, level ground and lower the platform.

2. Block drive wheels (block in the front and in the rear of wheels).

IMPORTANT: Do not allow any debris to enter the power wheel.

3. Thoroughly clean the face of the power wheel.

IMPORTANT: The pin is spring loaded, and the lobe on the cover will push the pin in.

Tighten cap screws (B) evenly, until cover is installed. Binding can cause severe damage.

NOTE: Pin (A) engages the sun and planetary gears in the power wheel. If pin is in a bind and hard to move, it may be necessary to push (rock) the drive wheel to free pin (A).

5. Install cover (C) with lobe facing inward.

6. Repeat Steps 3-5 on opposite side.

CAUTION: The drive wheels are now disengaged and parking brake is inoperative.

7. After towing, block the front and rear of drive wheels. Remove the cover and install with the lobe facing outward on both wheels.

NOTE: The slight movement of the hydrostatic drive motor will cause the spring loaded pin to move in position.

8. Start windrower, set engine speed at low rpm, barely move hydrostatic control lever forward and then rearward.

9. Stop engine and remove blocks.
