I’ve been absolutely terrified of the day I’d have to set one of these things up and run it and maintain it! After watching this video, I really feel like I have an understanding of whats going on here! MacDon FD75 pretty much dominates the PNW now, so the change is eminent, but, I’m kind of looking forward to it. Thanks for the great Video Clinic! Im going to look at a 9240 tomorrow with a FD75 and Im going straight for that left side panel to make sure it has the BOOK! 🙏🏼
This video is incredible. When you are adjusting the float where should the faceplate angle on the feeder house be? When we have hydraulic adjustable face plate should we use that or just set it in one spot and use the head to adjust itself as usual? Also, when you adjust wing balance Is the float locked or unlocked? These two questions are just not mentioned in the book and I’d like to know from you. Thank you.

Asking for a friend, if somebody adjusted the nuts/bolt on the end of the header by the belt tensioner that he said not to touch… what would be the procedure to get it close to factory?
Great presentation. Well done. I learned more today than in 20 years using Macdon Headers.!
Lots of great set up and maintenance tips from a seasoned technician. Thanks for all the detail! - Schomberg, Ontario
