Prior to operation ADJUSTMENTS TO THE FORAGER The maize header is designed for operation with the forager Type 493. The following adjustments must be made to the forager before attaching the maize header.
Additional weights Forage harvesters with a front attachment installed must be equipped with additional weights according to the traffic regulations of your country for transport on public roads and ways. This is necessary so that the machine's drive axle is not overloaded and the machine does not lift at the rear on braking and when travelling on slopes. The load on the steering axle wheels should be 20% of the machine weight with mounted maize header. Attaching the additional weights – see forage harvester operator's manual.
