DIAL-A-MATIC ™ header height control maintains proper distance between platform frame and ground contour. The flexible cutterbar floats within a 152 mm (6 in.) range. When any one section of cutterbar floats higher than the rest, float arm (A) moves sensing pad (B) and causes height sensing rod (C) to turn. Actuator arm |
rests on top of stop arm, preventing turning of height sensing rod if one section of cutterbar floats down lower than other sections. This makes the highest section of cutterbar control the DIAL-A-MATIC system.
DIAL-A-MATIC system works as follows: Height sensing rod (C) turns wiper arm (D) in sensing box (E). Movement of wiper arm (D) contacts one of five printed circuit pads. |
CAUTION:
Always lower the safety stop when working under platform. Turn off engine and remove key.

The pad that is touched starts system for raising or lowering platform. When wiper arm touches "raise" pad, platform raises. When wiper arm touches "lower" pad, platform lowers. |
If a fine tuning is required, adjust linkage to ensure that a raise signal can always be achieved in DIAL-A-MATIC position 1 (lowest setting). |
