Hydraulic Header Drive/Flotation

All Challenger SP Series windrowers feature hydraulic header flotation, which allows the operator to make header flotation adjustments on the go and without leaving the cab.

Hydraulic header drive is also standard on all SP models. However, the “B” Series goes one step further with the new “Smart” hydraulic system.

 

 

To change headers, simply attach the header and connect the electrical wiring harness. The tractor “senses” which header is attached and automatically adjusts hydraulic flow to match the header type (i.e. a draper header uses lower hydraulic flow than a disc header).

Redesigned header lift arms on the SP185B allow it to use any disc, sickle or draper header in the Challenger line-up.  The SP115B model, on the other hand, can be fitted with any AHB Series sickle header or DHW Series draper header.
