Adjust the windrow opening from<br />

54 to 70 inches (1.37 -1.78 m) to<br />

accommodate a wide variety of<br />

grain and oilseed crops. Narrowopening<br />

inserts are available for<br />

light or short crops.<br />

Turn amber waves of grain <strong>into</strong> uniform swaths.<br />

Turn any 9000 or 9005 Series model <strong>into</strong> a <strong>high</strong>-capacity swather by simply adding a Hesston 5200 Series draper<br />

header. Choose from five center-delivery header widths – 18-, 22-, 25-, 30- and 36-foot (5.5, 6.7, 7.6, 9.1 and<br />

10.9 m) – that build the perfect swath for today’s <strong>high</strong>-capacity combines and harvesters. Or select one of three<br />

double swath models in 22-, 25- and 30-foot (6.7, 7.6 and 9.1 m) cutting widths.<br />

These shiftable draper models let you position the swath at the center or to the left and right side of the header<br />

for double swaths.<br />

Say ‘good-bye’ to sickle vibration<br />

Whether you’re cutting close to the ground or leaving 10 inches of stubble, you can count on the 5200 header<br />

for smooth, clean performance. A hydraulically driven sickle drive features a planetary <strong>gear</strong> system that eliminates<br />

starting and stopping loads. The lack of shafts, belts and sheaves translates <strong>into</strong> reduced maintenance.<br />

The planetary drive, which runs at 1,400 strokes per minute, also produces a linear knife movement that ensures<br />

against up-and-down and side-to-side movement during its stroke for less wear and better cutting performance.<br />

Finally, a skid plate along the bottom of the cutterbar protects the entire unit when cutting close to the ground.<br />

Heavy-duty, nylon reinforced belts are<br />

driven by a hydraulic motor and are<br />

adjustable from the cab to any speed<br />

from 0 to 600 feet (0 - 183 m) per minute.<br />

The hydraulic reel drive is infinitely<br />

variable from 0 to 60 rpm to precisely<br />

match reel speed to ground speed and<br />

crop conditions.<br />
