5. R/H Wheel Support:
a. Engage spring hook(s) in anchor at wheel
support same as L/H side shown in Step 4.
Attach front end of spring(s) and trans-axle
assembly to header R/H leg as follows:
NOTE: The trans-axle can be installed on inboard or
outboard side of leg for 972 or 973 headers, but must
be outboard on 974 Headers. This determines the
side of the leg where the trans-axle wheel will be
placed in storage. For headers with R/H decks that can
be split for end delivery, choose the side that places the
working wheel away from the windrow delivery
opening.
IMPORTANT: For 973/974 headers, spacer (E) for
transaxle is not used. Install 33mm ID x 57mm OD
flat washer provided in kit instead. For both
inboard (973) and outboard (973/974) installations,
position washer on outside of leg with one cotter
pin inside leg and one outside.
For installation outboard of header leg - 972:
b. Knuckle (A) must be tight against face of header
leg when trans-axle is mounted on outboard
side of header leg.
c. Install cotter pin (B) through second hole from
end of pivot shaft and through spacer to hold
knuckle against other face of header leg. Store
second cotter pin (C) in outer hole of pivot shaft.
NOTE: Assembly of knuckle away from face of
leg will result in excessive “toe-in” of R/H wheel
located underneath cutterbar.
For installation inboard of header leg – 972:
d. Space knuckle away from leg as at (D) when
installing on inboard side of header leg.
e. Install spacer (E) against inside face of header
leg to maintain knuckle spacing away from other
face of header leg. Install cotter pin (G).
f. Install cotter pin (F) through last hole in pivot
shaft on outboard side of leg.
