<p>An agricultural machine has a harvesting header mounted on a feeder house for use in severing crops at desired elevation above a ground surface and feeding the crop to a thresher. The feeder house pivots about an axis to raise and lower the header, and the header pivots on the feeder house to adjust the fore/aft pitch angle of the header relative the feeder house so as to alter the angle of its cutterbed. A position sensor produces a signal that is representative of the rotational position of the feeder housing. A header pitch sensor produces signal that is representative of the fore/aft pitch angle of the header relative the feeder house. A header control system maintains a constant cutter bed angle as the header moves along an arc while being raised and lowered by adjusting the header pitch angle in response to movement of the feeder house.</p> |
