Forward visibility is unequaled with the W200 Series Windrower cab. A large, wide-angle front windshield and cab-centered operator seat provide an unobstructed panoramic perspective from side-to-side and top-to-bottom. Operators can quickly scan the work area without having to look around cab obstructions.
The cab position relative to previous 450 models has been raised slightly and moved forward, providing better visibility of the platform and cutterbar.
Custom-shaped left- and right-windows and narrow cab cornerposts provide nearly 180 degrees of visibility scan in order to monitor all sizes of headers in the field and on the road.
The redesigned cornerpost display, swiveling CommandARM™ controls with display, and the ability to flip up the third display allow increased visibility during road transport.
Standard on all cab options, the 12-percent luminous transmittance (LT) tinted rear window reduces glare and reflection on cab controls, displays, and adjacent windows and helps to regulate cab temperature.
The CommandARM provides the operator with unmatched control of the windrower and platform. Controls are designed and positioned to enhance operator ergonomics and are easy to locate and use. Operators will appreciate the common look and feel of these control consoles in the windrowers, which are similar to the design used in John Deere tractors and combines.
Adjustment of the CommandARM meets the needs of every operator; it adjusts at an angle, fore and aft, and up and down for precise operator comfort.
The CommandARM provides access to the most frequently-used windrower controls:
The controls vital to the operation of the W200 Series Windrowers are conveniently located on the multifunction control lever.
The ergonomic multifunction control lever gives the operator fingertip control of the following functions:

The PDU features state-of-the-art electronic instrumentation and blends well with the narrow, right-hand cab post, providing excellent visibility to the header. The PDU is divided into an upper and lower region. The upper region provides traction unit information and the lower region provides platform specific information.
The W200 Series features several improvements over previous designs to keep the engine operating at optimal levels and improving engine life. Design features include:
The W200 Series are tested in tough conditions of over 100°F to ensure the drives stay properly cooled for maximum life and reliability. The 94.6-L (25-gal) oil reservoir supplies oil to the pumps. Oil is cooled as it passes through the combination oil cooler and air-conditioner condenser assembly at the rear of the machine.
Live monitoring of the hydraulic oil temp at the left- and right-drive motors and reservoir limit switch protects against overheating during drive motor stall or high-grade terrain conditions.
The newly designed, eight-blade cooling fan incorporates a viscous drive system providing precise control over fan speed during operation. Optimization of the viscous fan speed leads to significant reductions in parasitic losses in certain operating conditions.
The fan speed is controlled by various factors such as engine coolant temperature, intake manifold air temperature, or hydraulic oil temperature. This level of control allows the fan to operate only at the required speed to keep the engine and cooling package at optimal operating temperature and thus reducing engine noise levels.
The W200 Series Self-Propelled Windrowers feature heavy-duty Sauer-Danfoss® drive pumps, providing flow to larger, heavy-duty, bent axis wheel drive motors for increased power and higher ground speeds in the field and transport operating range. The pumps and wheel motor housings are made of heavy-duty cast iron for quiet and reliable operation.
Increased engine horsepower, heavy-duty drive pumps, and wheel motors create:
Servo-controls used on the hydrostatic pumps:
The distribution gearcase drives the rotary platform pump and wheel motor pumps. The distribution gearcase is mounted directly to the engine and has a separate oil cooler for cooling.
The windrowers use of large, heavy-duty planetary final drives powered by larger displacement motors provide increased torque rating for dependable operation in borders, irrigation wheel tracks, and rough field conditions.
With a final drive gear ratio of 36.8-to-1, the W200 Series Self-Propelled Windrowers have plenty of pulling power for climbing hillsides, loading on trailers, or operating in adverse field conditions.
Planetary final drives can be easily disengaged for towing.

The diesel fuel and diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) fill locations on the W200 Series Self-Propelled Windrowers provide convenient filling from ground level.
The DEF fill gauge keeps operators from over filling the tank, preventing spills and damage from freezing and expansion in cold weather.
A remote battery terminal, conveniently located on the left-hand platform near the fluid fill, provides power for the 12-V fuel pumps on refueling tanks.
A feature unique to the W200 Series Rotary Traction Units, constant header speed, is made possible by a state-of-the-art platform hydraulic pump control system that monitors platform speed and controls the pump to maintain a required speed. Constant header speed translates to a consistent cut quality and uniform windrow formation throughout varying crop conditions and terrain changes.
As crop conditions change, causing the head to slow, or if the engine begins to load as terrain changes, the control system diverts more oil flow to the platform drive motor to maintain the header speed set point. This widens the peak power range of the header, delivering the optimal power when it is needed most.
Other advantages of constant header speed include:
The industry-exclusive, rear-wheel steer assist system provides added control to the windrowers, enabling higher cutting and transport speeds.
IntelliAxle steer assist also has independent rear suspension, smoothing out the roughest field and road conditions and decreasing operator fatigue during long days in the field.
The independent rear suspension contributes to a better quality of ride and less fatigue for the operator. The torsion axle design absorbs the shock experienced in rough terrains, allowing faster cutting speeds.
See rear suspension in action.
The rear-wheel steer assist system allows easier, more positive handling in the field as well as on the road during transport. Improved from the 450 Series design, the W200 Series features an electrohydraulic, proportionally-controlled rear steering system that provides tighter steering and better control at higher speeds.
In-field working speeds up to 25.7 km/h (16 mph) and road speeds up to 33.8 km/h (21 mph) are achieved with the help of this improved axle design.
Smooth, fluent steering helps the operator to maintain complete control of the windrower during sharp turns and aggressive field conditions. The steering sensitivity can be manually tuned by the operator using the CommandCenter™ display to match operator preference and field conditions.
The steer assist system provides three modes of steering aid as the machines travel through the speed ranges:
Faster field and transport speeds
Faster field and transport speeds are achieved with the increased controllability and stability provided by the rear-wheel steer assist system and independent rear-wheel suspension. The IntelliAxle system, when coupled with the W200 Series integrated AutoTrac™ guidance system, delivers unmatched performance and productivity.
The W200 Series Self-Propelled Windrowers exhibit the industry’s first fully-integrated AutoTrac steering system without the use of electrohydraulic pumps or universal type add-ons. The completely redesigned steering system features the industry’s only steering design, utilizing multiple steering systems to maximize controllability.
Operators will notice the increased accuracy and controllability of integrated AutoTrac compared to the previous AutoTrac Universal system on the R450 and 4995 Windrowers or older models. Additionally, this increased accuracy and controllability allows for faster operating speeds. Integrated AutoTrac on the W200 Series can run up to 27.4 km/h (17 mph) if conditions allow.
A unique hydraulic over mechanical design controls coarse adjustments of the drive pumps and an electrohydraulic proportional rear steering system executes fine adjustments, delivering the most accurate steering system in its class.
W200 Series Self-Propelled Windrowers are John Deere AutoTrac-ready from the factory requiring only a GreenStar™ 3 Display, AutoTrac activation, and StarFire™ receiver to enable. Click here to learn more about required components for AutoTrac on W200 Windrowers.
AutoTrac ensures more consistency and that more of the platform is engaging crop at all times, leading to increased productivity. This adds value to the operation by providing more consistent windrows, longer operating hours, and less fatigue.
Integrated AutoTrac on the W200 Series far outperforms previous windrower options, delivering faster cutting speeds and more acres cut in less time.
Uneven cutting surfaces such as irrigation berms and pivot wheel tracks make for challenging cutting. The W200 Series Windrowers feature independent platform float suspension to improve cut quality on non-level cutting surfaces and deliver improved performance.
The independent float suspension delivers improved cut quality along irrigation berms and pivot tracks.
Adjusting the float suspension independently allows the platform to ride on the raised surface with proper flotation, reducing gouging and dirt buildup on the platform. Less dirt buildup means increased uptime and less dirt in the windrow, delivering higher quality hay and forage.
Adjusting the float pressure can be done quickly and easily right from the multifunction control handle. Simply tap the left quad function to select the left, center (left and right simultaneously), or right float pressure adjustment. Increasing or decreasing float pressure can be done with the left quad or from the GreenStar™ 3 CommandCenter™ Display.
Quick, on-the-go adjustment translates to more time spent cutting and less time and stress on the operator to make adjustments to the float pressure.
