Different Header Trailers are designed for different models of Headers, but in truth any Header Trailer will cause any Header to stick to it in this magnetized fashion, and can therefore theoretically transport any header.įarming Simulator 17 offers four different models of Header Trailers, each designed for a different size and shape of Header. Some Harvesters can even tow a Header Trailer behind them as they move from field to field.Ī Header can be placed directly on top of the Header Trailer, and will 'stick' to it with some force, like a sort of magnet.
A Header Trailer solves this problem by mounting Headers sideways, aligning them with the axis of motion, effectively making them much narrower than they are when mounted on a Harvester. Furthermore, Harvesters themselves tend to be slow vehicles, which take a long time to travel from place to place. Headers tend to be very wide, and transporting them from place to place while mounted on the front of a Harvester is somewhat tricky, as they can snag on trees and lamp-posts on the sides of roads, collide with buildings and cars, and otherwise be a bother. A Header Trailer is a type of trailer in Farming Simulator 17 designed specifically to carry Headers, and particularly the long Harvester Headers that cannot easily be transported on roads.
