Harvester tool will not start

[ddobson]

The O key extends/retracts the pipe, Q attaches/detaches the header, X unfolds/folds harvester, and V raises/lowers the header but B will not start the header. Help!!!

unfold the header some times you need to that

Added note, I started a new game as beginner so it's the starting harvester.

How do you unfold the header?

I found my issue, manual attach was on, once I turned it off and reattached the header be B button worked. Is there a guide on how to manually attach items?

Hey I had same problem today and it's the z key you have to connect the header in cab with q then hop out on foot and go to the pto shaft and connect manually with z key.

Not every header needs this the honey bee airheader didn't need that and gave me no problems but the corn headers needed the z key attach manually on foot.

There is a bit of a learning curve to the game. Best of luck. Just stick with it and you will learn. There is a good community to help with issues, too. The game help is pretty slack and not really useful. You will learn most by trial and error. For example, be very careful on placing large objects such as buildings before checking that they will not cause a huge issue with terrain forming. Otherwise, you will be spending a lot of time fixing terrain to correct the damage caused by that placement. Also, orchards, such as grapes, be careful of wanting to place vines or trees too closely together. Remember, you have to get equipment down those rows to cultivate, mulch, fertilize, etc. Trying to utilize space too closely can end up causing you big headaches down the road. Again, best of luck!!!
