Abstract
A towed harvesting machine, especially for row crop, has a chassis connected pivotally by a tow bar to a tractor and a fluid-responsive motor connected between the tow bar and the chassis or frame which is capable of laterally shifting the frame or chassis, and hence the mouth of the machine for ensuring alignment of the row crop with the mouth. The mouth of the machine can be provided with sensors controlling this motor, which can be a hydraulic cylinder, to assure this alignment.
