V. OPERATING INFORMATION

HAGIE TASSELTROL® CONTINUED

Short Corn Operation

When operating the LS system, always select MANUAL when first entering the field. Once you have maintained your operating speed and the cutting and/or pulling depth, select AUTO . When you come to an area where the corn is very short, such as a low spot in the field, you may want to switch to the MANUAL position until you reach taller corn.

Always switch to the MANUAL position before you reach the end rows (fig. 5.51). This will allow the cutter or puller heads to maintain their cutting or pulling height when re-entering the field (fig. 5.51), then you may switch back to AUTO.

You may choose to use the ALL UP/HOLD function instead of switching to manual. This function will raise all the deta sseling heads in one motion. For more information on the ALL UP/HOLD function refer to pages 47 and 57.
