Leveling Draper Cutterbar to Ground
Leveling the cutterbar is essential when cutting close to the ground.
Attach the draper to the combine and position it on a level surface. Lower the draper until the cutterbar is approximately 457 mm (18 in.) off the ground.
Measure the distance from the extreme right knife guard to the ground. Repeat this measurement on the extreme left-hand guard. If these two dimensions are significantly different, it is necessary to reset the cutterbar level. This adjustment is typically accomplished through combine feeder house adjustments. Refer to your combine operators manual for proper instruction on leveling the combine feeder house mounting surface.
