DIAL-A-SPEED (Attachment)
The knob controls the ratio of the reel speed to ground speed.
To operate, start the engine and drive forward with the separator and header engaged. Turn knob to position 3. Watch the speed of the reel and adjust the knob until you get the ratio to ground speed that you want. The reel will now speed up or slow down in relation to the ground speed.
This automatic control will not work if ground speed is less than 2.9 kph (1.3 mph). When driving the combine slowly through a down and lodged crop, temporarily shut off this switch and use the manual reel speed switch.
To change the minimum speed, stop the combine and turn the knob to the off position. Hold the manual switch to get the minimum reel speed you want. Turn the knob to the check position. Return the ratio knob to the prior setting and return to operating. This minimum speed is kept until the header is disengaged.
