Alert others around the machine to stay clear while calibration is being performed.

Fore/Aft tilt frame is used to set the correct relationship between platform skid plates and the ground. It compensates for the different tire sizes, rear axle settings, and other variables.

Tilt frame is set to an approximate position at factory, but if tires or axle positions are changed or ground conditions change (soft ground), it may be necessary to readjust zero point.

If field conditions are normal, calibration can be done on level concrete.

If field conditions are soft (leaving ruts), calibration MUST be done in a level location in the field.

An approximate setting can be obtained without a header attached. See Calibrations Application Help or Operator’s Station Help to calibrate Feeder House Tilt Fore/Aft Range. During calibration, set zero point by measuring the following:

  • Tilt fore/aft frame fully forward. Lower or raise feeder house until pivot pin (A) to ground distance is set to 1016 mm (40 in).
  • Using a level as a reference, adjust fore/aft tilt frame until front face is vertical. This fore/aft frame adjustment changes the pivot pin to ground distance from 1016 mm (40 in) to the desired specification distance.
