Frame
The SP185B frame is heavier than the SP165,
as it uses 1/4 welded box beams in the side
rails. The SP185B walking beam is also heavier, to better withstand the rigors of high speed
windrowing.
The SP85B and SP115B use 1/4 C-channel
mainframe rails.
Frame
Rotary Screen
(Standard on SP115B, SP185B-Optional on
SP85B)
The rotary screen sits forward of the engine,
and high on the tractor, and provides a large
volume of clean air for efficient engine cooling.
Leaves and chaff drop off the screen by use of
a dead air space, or are whisked off by the action of a screen vacuum. The rotary screen
provides clean air to the engine, with less chaff
getting into the radiator, for better cooling and
less time spent cleaning.

The wheel motors are enclosed in the final
drive housing, and a cover fits the housing
opening, to keep the area around the motor
clean, and to reduce sound levels.
Wheel Motor
Planetary Drive
The planetary drives have increased torque
and radial load characteristics compared to the
earlier models. This gives the machines better
pulling power on hills, or crossing ditches. The
SP115B planetary has a 42:1 ratio (compared
to 38:1). The SP115B now has a 42:1 ratio
(compared to 35:1). The SP85B has a 34.6:1
ratio (compared to 29.1).

Header Flotation
The header flotation circuit allows the header to
follow the field contours. The flotation circuit
consists of two flotation cylinders, an accumulator, and the header lift and flotation valve.
The operator controls flotation pressure by activating the flotation pressure switch on the console, and monitors the flotation pressure on the
console-mounted gauge. The hydraulic flotation adjustment is much quicker and easier
than adjusting flotation springs. The flotation
can easily be set and monitored by the operator, for less time spent on set-up and longer
header life.

Batteries
The windrower tractor is equipped with two 12volt batteries. One battery is located on each
side of the engine, for easy access. The batteries provide sufficient power to start the machine in adverse conditions, for less downtime.

Engine
The SP115B and SP185B engines use an electronic fuel injection system, which is more precise and responsive. The engine torque is better than on previous mechanical versions.
Intercooler
(SP185B Only)
The engine uses an air-to-air intercooler. The
turbocharged compressed air is cooled as it
flows through the intercooler. Cooling the
charged air allows it to be compressed more
than hot air. More compressed air can then be
pushed into the intake manifold, and from there
into the cylinders. The cooled, compressed air
mixes more thoroughly with the injected fuel, so
the fuel is burned more completely, giving more
power with less emissions.
17
Intercooler
Radiator
The cooling system capacity on the SP85B and
SP115B is 22 quarts (20.8 L). The SP185B capacity is 36 quarts (34.1 L). Cleaning and filling
the radiator is made easier by the use of large,
top hinged shields, and slide out oil cooler and
air conditioner condenser. A large, accessible
radiator keeps the engine running at peak efficiency, for long life.

The two spoke steering wheel design allows for
improved visibility of the header. Once the operator is seated, the steering post can be pivoted by depressing a foot pedal at the base of
the steering post. The steering wheel can then
tilt to one of nine positions, for optimal operator
comfort. The steering wheel tilt and pivot
matches the operator need for maximum comfort and visibility.

with the seat, and is adjustable both vertically
and horizontally relative to the seat to maximize
operator comfort and to reduce operator fatigue
for greater productivity. The tractor and header
controls, which are used periodically, are activated from the console, and the controls that
are used continually, are located on the header
and travel control lever. The cup holder is also
attached to the console, helping to reduce
spills.

DKHB Header
INTRODUCTION
The DKHB header is the updated disc header that will be used on the SP185B Windrower
Tractor. The DKHB is available in a 12 and a 15 3 cut version. The new header shares
many of the proven features of the DKH header, along with these improvements:
Header motors are included with the header. This makes it easier to adapt the auger and
draper headers to the SP185B tractor.
Header speed sensor, electronically controls pump speed for consistent header speed regardless of engine speed.
Cutterbar Gears
The cutterbar gears have heavy duty, wide profile teeth. The wide profile increases the gearto-gear tooth contact area, improving the load
carrying capacity of the gear. The gear teeth
are shaved, which is a higher-grade finish
than on standard gears. The shaving process
reduces the possibility of cutterbar contamination, and allows the teeth to mesh better, providing quieter and smoother running gears.
The cutterbar gears have shaved, wide profile
teeth, giving higher load carrying capacity and
smoother operation, for long life and troublefree operation.

Conditioner Drive
The spur gearbox directly drives the conditioner
rolls through u-joint drive shafts. The gearbox is
continually lubed, so maintenance is reduced.
The u-joint drives to the conditioner rolls are
very durable. They are designed to withstand
the rolls continual opening and closing. The
continually lubed gearbox and u-joint drive
shafts provide quiet and reliable drive, for lower
maintenance expense and less downtime.

Speed Sensor
Like the DKH header, once the header speed
has been selected, it will be maintained
whether the engine speed raises or lowers.
This load sensing is now electronically controlled, instead of hydraulically controlled, for
more consistency.
The parts previously
needed for the hydraulic compensator
(actuator, sprocket, chain, hose) are not
needed.

Forming Shields
The forming shields can be set to operators
preference. The adjustable rear deflector shield
slows crop momentum to allow it to fall gently
into a tall, fluffy, quick drying windrow. The
forming shields can be set to build a windrow
any way the operator desires, so crop can be
harvested with minimum delay.
41
Skid Shoes
The wide skid shoes give a longer wear life,
and do a better job of floating the cutterbar on
soft or damp ground. The wide skid shoes provide better flotation and longer wear life, for improved performance and reduced maintenance
costs.

SP115B AHB
INTRODUCTION
The AHB header replaces the AH header. The new header shares many of the proven features of the AH header, along with these improvements:
Header motors are included with the header. This makes it easier to switch the windrower
tractor between the auger and draper header (or between disc, auger, and draper header
on the SP185B).

Guards
The header guards have a vertical wear surface which helps keep the sicklebar from riding
up, keeping the sickle sections against the
ledger of the guard. Cleaner cutting and longer
guard and sickle life are the result.
Sickle Guards
Adjustment-free Hold-downs
Flat, adjustment-free sickle hold-downs allow a
close tolerance to be maintained between the
sickle and guards for a easier and cleaner cutting job, with less cutting component and sickle
drive mechanism wear. The adjustment-free
hold-downs extend the life of the cutting parts
twice the normal life, reducing maintenance
and service intervals.

Sickle Drive
Sickle
The AHB headers use a double sickle, for
greater capacity. The sickles use top serrated
sections, which are suitable for most crop conditions. The sickle sections are bolted to the
sickle instead of riveted, which makes field replacement of broken sections easier. The dual
sickles overlap at the center of the header to
provide good cutting action and prevent crop
stripping where the sickles meet.
Double Sickle
51
Sickle Storage

Reel
Reel Drive
The reel is belt driven, eliminating the need for
a slip clutch. Belt slippage will absorb the shock
of reel stoppage by obstructions. The reel
speed is adjustable from 65 to 75 rpm by adding shims to the split drive sheave (A slowdown
sheave is available through Service Parts).
The reel speed can be easily changed to match
field conditions, independent of ground speed.
The belt reel drive is an effective means of driving and protecting the reel, with minimal maintenance expense.
Reel Drive
Reel Positioning
The reel can be adjusted forward and aft (1), or
up and down (2). The reel position can be optimized to handle most crop conditions, adding
to machine productivity in difficult conditions.

The gearbox is continually lubed, so maintenance is reduced. The u-joint driveshafts
to the conditioner rolls are very durable, designed to withstand the rolls continual opening and closing. The conditioner drive employs a continually lubed gearbox for minimal maintenance and long service life.
Conditioner Drive
Roll Spacing
The roll spacing is easily changed with an
adjustment bolt (1) on each end of the
header. A roll gap gauge (2) is located on
each side of the header, so the operator
can easily see where the roll gap is set. The
ease of adjustment and the ability to check
it encourage the operator to keep the rolls
in adjustment. The easy roll spacing adjustment allows the operator to maintain
ideal roll adjustment with less time and effort, increasing overall machine efficiency.

Swath Shield
The swath shield adjustment can be done with
minimal effort and no tools. In some high humidity areas, laying out a wide swath cures the
crop faster than narrower windrows. The operator can choose the windrow or swath width that
is right for a particular area. The swath shield
can be set to any position from narrow windrow
to full width swath (4096), for greater machine versatility.

INTRODUCTION
The DHW draper header is available in three sizes of center delivery: 22, 25, and 30. There
are also three sizes of Double Swath (shiftable headers: 22, 25, and 30.
The DHW header replaces the DH header. The new header shares many of the proven
features 0f the DH header, along with these improvements:
Header will mount to SP85B and SP115B tractors without an additional mounting kit. DHW
takes only one simple kit to install on SP185B.
Top link has two position mounting for additional cut range.
66
Cutterbar
Sickle Drive
The sickle drive is a hydraulically driven planetary gear system. The planetary gear system is
in rotation at all times, so there are no peak
starting and stopping loads as in a wobble box
system. The drive also maintains a high cutting
force, so it works well in all cereal, grass and
forage, and specialty crops. The sickle drive
system is very simple, as it uses no shafts,
belts, or sheaves, reducing maintenance.
Sickle Drive
67

Draper Guards
The draper guards deflect crop over the front
edge of the draper belts, preventing crop from
getting under the belts, and wrapping on the
draper rolls. By keeping the crop from wrapping on the rolls, it is easier to keep the draper
belt tracking true, prolonging the draper belt
life.
Draper Guard
68
Draper Shift
The shiftable draper header can operate in the
center delivery mode, or with the drapers
shifted to the right or left. To double swath, the
operator shifts the left draper to the center using the two position switch in the cab (Arrow).
The two draper carriages can then be locked
together, using the lever on the header. The
carriages can then be shifted for right or left
end delivery. When the draper carriages are
shifted, the draper belt rotation is also set automatically.

Crop Dividers
The crop dividers divide the crop on each end
of the header to reduce the possibility of stripping. Also, the guard position is centered between the end panels, which also helps reduce
crop stripping.
Crop Divider
Swath Opening
The opening between the drapers can be adjusted for various crop conditions. The standard narrow opening is used for light or normal
crops. The opening can be adjusted between
54 and 70 (1372 and 1778 mm). The wider
openings are used for heavier or fluffier crops
such as Canola or Mustard. A Narrow Opening
Kit is available to decrease the opening even
further to 42 (1076 mm).
