OPERATION
Engine ISC is useful when operating loads are reduced such as in light crop conditions that do not require the
maximum engine rpm. Reduced engine speed lowers fuel consumption, noise levels, and exhaust emissions in
addition to reducing engine wear.
The programmed engine speed is activated when the header is engaged.
Programming instructions are provided in 3.18.5 Cab Display Module (CDM) Programming, page 85 .
Shutting Down the Engine
CAUTION
Park on a flat, level surface, header on the ground, and the ground speed lever in N-DETENT position and
steering wheel locked.
IMPORTANT:
Before stopping engine, run at low idle for approximately five minutes to cool hot engine parts (and allow
turbocharger to slow down while engine oil pressure is available).
1. Lower header.
2. Place ground speed lever (GSL ) (B) into N-DETENT.
3. Lock steering wheel.
4. Turn ignition key (A) counterclockwise to OFF position.

Filling Fuel Tank
Fill fuel tank daily, preferably at the end of the day’s operation to help prevent condensation in the tank.
DANGER

pet could engage an idling machine.
WARNING
• To avoid personal injury or death from explosion or fire, do NOT smoke or allow flame or sparks near
fuel tank when refueling.
• NEVER refuel the windrower when the engine is hot or running.
CAUTION
Do NOT allow tank to empty. Running out of fuel can cause air locks and/or contamination of the fuel
system. Refer to
