Opening and Closing Platforms for Major Servicing

To improve access to the hydraulics plumbing or battery, the platforms can be swung away from the windrower. Left side shown.

  1. Open engine compartment hood to lowest position.

    CAUTION: Failure to open hood will result in damage to the hood when the platform is repositioned.

  2. Unlock latch (A) and move platform (B) toward open position but DO NOT lock in full aft position.

  3. Remove nut and bolt at frame and swing link (C) clear of valve block or battery.

  4. At the same time, pull front (cab-forward 150) end of platform away from frame while moving it towards the walking beam. Aft corner (D) of platform should project slightly into engine compartment when optimum opening is reached.

Close platform as follows:

  1. Swing link (C) all the way forward.

  2. Move platform front (cab-forward 150) end inboard, while moving it away from the walking beam.

  3. Position link (C) on bracket and install bolt and nut. Tighten just enough so that link can still swivel on bracket.

  4. Move platform to closed position, ensuring it is locked.

  5. Close engine compartment hood.
