OPERATION
IMPORTANT:
The windrower can be equipped with an automatic steering system for use in the field. An automated steering
system is available as an option and can be installed by a MacDon Dealer. The GSL has been pre-wired at the
factory with a switch. Refer to
7.1.2 Automated Steering Systems, page 429 .
Driving in Reverse in Cab-Forward Mode
WARNING
Back up slowly. Steering is opposite to normal when reversing. Hold steering wheel at the bottom and
turn wheel in direction you want the rear (cab-forward) of the machine to travel.
1. Move speed range switch (A) to L.
2. Move throttle lever (B) to a mid-range position.
NOTE:
Reversing in low speed range and at reduced
engine speed is recommended since steering will
be less sensitive than at higher speed settings.
CAUTION
Check again to be sure all bystanders have cleared
the area.
3. Move the ground speed lever (GSL) rearward to
desired speed. Figure 4.18: Operator’s Console
