Sugar Beet machine mess
Newbie here. Took on my first sugar beet contract and hired the machines. It was a massive yellow thing with a header. I managed to get the header attached and went to site. I hit the button to unfold/lower the header. However, the machine itself was't unfolded and I couldn't find the separate button to unfold the machine, so I detached the header and it dropped in a position where I couldn't pick it up again. I wandered around the header trying to find a prompt for me to do it manually, but I couldn't. Grateful for any advice on how I should have handled the situation please.

You might have to reset the equipment to the shop using the map assuming it will let you.

When you get it reattached, hit the G key to highlight the tractor icon in the upper left, then hit the X key to unfold the machine. A shortcut is to hit ctrl+X to unfold both at the same time.

Ah. THanks for this. The G key. Learning something new! But there's still no way, I guess, to recover the header which I messed up. Fortunately this was leased so I only lost a bit of money but if this happened to a header I bought, then I'd be stuck.

Do you know you can reset equipment and vehicles when marking them on the map? This is free and will make the items spawn back at the shop, like @wolfedg mentioned. You can do this with both owned and leased items..

Sometimes you can attach equipment even if it's laying up-side down or the wrong way around, but all equipment is attached when using the vehicle, and not on foot. Just look for the prompt, and if it pops up, you can attach stuff. The equipment will flip itself (and sometimes even the vehicle) into the right position when attaching.

You can also use a vehicle to crash into stuff to get the equipment to flip back on the right side.. Not very realistic, but does the trick often enough.
