This to many is going to sound a rather unusual question but as nobody seems to have trailed type forage harvesters anymore here goes . When it comes to raising the pickup drums or cutting heads on trailed type forage harvesters . Just how does it normally work ? looking at the sales brouchers and instructions and so on it appears that in many cases , rather than just the header lifing up and down , the whole machine lfts , even seemin to tilt back . can anybody enlighten me . Models of particular interest are the Claas , the Lundell 605 come MF 762 , Hesston and Tarup .I ask for I am thinking of doing some models but like I say , without seeing the real ones to which seem no existant now and deciding not to go inot farming many years ago one is just not always too knwledgeable on certain subjects . Thanks David

If you are talking about flail type harvestors for green chopping hay and grasses then the whole machine lifts with the cylinder. if you are talking about harvestors for chopping corn and hay then just the head lifts up and down with the cylinder. I hope this helps.

Don't know about the ones you ask about,except maybe the Hesston. I think the CaseIH that I have now was built by Hesston,that uses a cable from the cylinder. Without going out to look at it,I think the header mount swivels,so to speak,just ahead of the feed rolls. I had a 3800 Deere prior to the CaseIH,I think that raised the same way,except with direct linkage instead of a cable.
