ASSEMBLY

Install Tires

DRIVE TIRES

Install tires on a hard, level surface as follows:

1. Lift front end of windrower using a forklift and

place 14” (35 cm) blocks under yellow skid
shoes (S) on front frame legs.


2. Install drive tires onto power hubs ensuring tire

tread points forward and air valve stems are on
the outside.

NOTE: For "Turf and Field" tires (diamond or

rectangular tread), be sure arrow on sidewall
points in forward rotation.

3. Torque drive wheel bolts to 180 ft. lbs. (245

N·m)

Follow proper bolt tightening sequence (see
Maintenance/Service section). Re-check torque
as follows:

• Every 15 minutes on the road or 60 minutes in

the field until torque stabilizes, then

• Daily (10 hours) until no change is recorded for

3 consecutive days (30 hours), then

• Every 200 hours or annually thereafter.

4. Lift front end of windrower with forklift and remove the blocks from under skid shoes. Lower the windrower

onto its tires.


5. IMPORTANT: Remove yellow skid shoes (S) from front frame legs.



DRIVE TIRE INFLATION

Check the tire pressures and adjust if necessary.

CAUTION: When inflating tires, use a
clip-on chuck and extension hose long
enough to allow you to stand to one
side and not facing tire.



NOTE:
Pressures below are for a fully loaded
header. If hay conditioner is removed, or a bat reel
replaces a pick-up reel, reduce pressures by 2 psi (14
kPa).
