Product catalog summary
Overview
The document provides an overview of performance options for the D2 and FD2 FlexDraper® headers, aimed at enhancing harvesting capabilities by improving capacity, speed, and flexibility across various crop conditions.
Knife Guard Configuration
This section highlights the importance of selecting appropriate knife guard configurations to optimize cut quality for different crop conditions, such as thin, average, and heavy crops, to enhance performance and reduce maintenance.
Spare Knife
The spare knife kit offers a full-length factory replacement for damaged knives, ensuring uninterrupted operations. It is stored within the header's backtube and is available for various header sizes.
EasyMove™ Slow Speed Transport
This system allows FD2 Series FlexDraper® headers to be towed between fields at speeds up to 32 km/h, with stabilizer wheels to maintain even cutting heights in uneven conditions.
ContourMax™ Contour Wheels
ContourMax uses wheels to mirror field contours, ensuring consistent stubble height and improved seeding conditions for the following year.
Stabilizer Wheels
Spring-loaded stabilizer wheels maintain header stability in bumpy conditions, ensuring even stubble height and preventing side-to-side rocking.
Full Length Upper Cross Auger
This auger improves crop feeding in heavy conditions by moving crops to the header center, preventing balling and overflow, with variable pitch flighting and a shut-off valve for efficiency.
VertiBlade™ Vertical Knives
These knives reduce seed shatter loss and improve crop dividing in bushy conditions, with quick attachment and hydraulically driven adjustable speed.
Hydraulic Reservoir Fill Extension
This kit ensures adequate oil supply on steep hillsides, preventing pump cavitation and maintaining header performance.
Rock Retarder Kit
Designed for rocky conditions, this kit prevents rock ingestion by blocking stones from reaching the drapers, enhancing safety and efficiency.
High Wear Skid Shoes
These skid shoes are designed for rocky, abrasive conditions, offering quick attachment and extended wear.
Lateral Tilt Module
This module allows for better automation and ground following in hilly conditions, enhancing the cutting process.
Floating Crop Dividers
These dividers improve ground following and reduce trampling in lodged and standing crops, offering wide adjustment for varying conditions.
Rice Divider Rods
Designed to separate heavy crops at the header ends, these rods prevent crops from being pushed over, ideal for severe lodged rice crop conditions and wet fields.
Crop Divider Storage Bracket
This bracket allows for quick removal and storage of divider cones, reducing transport width if necessary.
Crop Lifter Kit and Storage Rack
Designed to lift downed and lodged crops, these lifters attach to the cutterbar, with a storage rack for convenience.
Extended Center Filler
This reinforced flap extends onto the feed draper to reduce crop loss, especially for soybeans and peas.
Full Interface Filler FD2
Provides additional sealing between the float module and header to reduce crop loss, suitable for soybeans and peas.
Stubble Light Kit
Exclusive to John Deere combines, this kit includes two LED lights for better visibility in low light conditions.
Side-Hill Stabilizer
This kit stabilizes the header on side hills for better ground following capabilities.
Tine Tube / Reel Conversion Kits
These kits convert a standard reel into a 6 or 9 bat reel, improving feeding performance in delicate crops.
Header Tilt Footswitch
An alternative to the standard toggle, this footswitch allows quick changes between reel fore/aft and header tilt.
Dual Speed Reel Drive
This kit allows operators to choose between two gear ratios for improved feeding in rice and other specialty crops.
2-Series Sunflower Attachment
Designed for harvesting sunflowers, this attachment is not recommended for down crops.
FM200 Feeding Performance Configurations
The Feed Auger Flighting Extension kit improves feeding in green/wet straw conditions, particularly for rice.
