Abstract
A feederhouse assembly for an agricultural harvester includes a pitch frame adjacent the inlet end of a feederhouse and arranged to pivot relative to the feederhouse, and a hydraulic cylinder and a spring coupling the pitch frame to the feederhouse. A method of connecting a harvesting header to an agricultural harvester includes applying a spring force to a pitch frame adjacent an inlet end of a feederhouse, applying a hydraulic force cylinder to the pitch frame, balancing the hydraulic force and the spring force when the pitch frame is in an orientation corresponding to an orientation of the harvesting header, moving the agricultural harvester toward the harvesting header, and securing the harvesting header to the pitch frame. The spring force is oriented to rotate the pitch frame downward, and the hydraulic force is oriented to rotate the pitch frame upward.
