Float Calibration

The lift cylinder pressure sensor must be calibrated for each header installed on the combine in order for Active Header Float to function Properly

Prepare Header for Calibration:

  • Turn the key switch to the run position.
  • Hook up header to the combine and ensure header harness is connected to the combine harness.
  • Move the machine onto a level surface.
  • Raise header completely.
