All 263 pages of this Case IH 3016 Pick-up Header Service Manual (OEM #47779309) focus on one machine: your 3016 and 3016 Pick-up Header, from PTO shaft teardown to belt feed auger rebuild. Inside, you get hydraulic schematics covering the height control, feeder engagement, and hold-down bleed sequences, wiring diagrams with full harness layouts and connector pinouts across six electrical subsystems, plus a troubleshooting section that walks you through belt pick-up solenoid testing and feeding control faults. Torque tables are built into the front matter: M10 Class 8.8 hardware goes to 37 N·m, M24 Class 10.9 to 762 N·m, and the 3/4-14 pipe thread fitting to 54 N·m. Set your rear stripper-to-auger flight clearance at 2–6 mm and you're back in spec. Your machine is down and the clock is running. Bookmarked and keyword-searchable, this PDF gets you to the right procedure before you waste another hour guessing.

Case IH 3016, 3016 Pick-up Header Common Problems This Manual Covers
Case IH 3016 pick-up header belt pickup not engaging, solenoids not responding at 12 V p. 51
Check solenoid nominal voltage at the connector — spec is 12 V (page 50). Run the belt pick-up solenoid diagnostic on page 51: test solenoid 1 and solenoid 2 individually. Verify harness continuity from the controller to each solenoid using general wire testing procedures. If voltage checks out but solenoids still don't fire, inspect the hydraulic fluid pressure switch and torque any replacement to 20 N·m (177.0 lb in).
Manual Section: Hydraulic Systems - 35Hold down arm won't hold position, header height drifts after raising p. 64
Bleed the hold down hydraulic circuit first: raise and lower the hold down five full cycles, pausing five seconds at full extension and full retraction each time (page 64). Then inspect the positioning cylinder for external leaks. If drift continues, test the left-hand and right-hand stubble height sensors per — check mounting torque on any disturbed sensor at 1.35 N·m (12 lb in).
Manual Section: Hydraulic Systems - 35Picking belts tracking off to one side, material not feeding evenly across header p. 245
Adjust belt tracking starting from the recommended initial setting: set the adjuster to 52 mm (2 in) on page 245, then run the belt at operating speed and observe drift. Work through the belt feeding service procedure, checking draper drive motor mounting and belt tension before making final tracking corrections. Inspect picking belt bearings for seized rollers while the belt is off.
Manual Section: Attachments/Headers - 58Retractable fingers hitting the floor or leaving crop behind, uneven pickup height p. 226
Measure finger-to-floor clearance at rest: spec is 10 - 20 mm (0.4 - 0.8 in) per page 226. If clearance is out of range, follow the retractable finger timing adjustment — remove the assembly, check finger phasing, reinstall, and re-verify clearance before field testing. Worn fingers that pass timing but still miss crop should be replaced as a set.
Manual Section: Attachments/Headers - 58Feed auger chain slipping or jumping sprockets, crop bunching at auger
Measure the auger drive chain for wear elongation — replace if elongation exceeds 3% (page 29). For No. 40 Chain (08A), the 40-pitch replace length is 523 mm (20.591 in) per page 30. Also verify rear stripper-to-auger flight clearance is within 2 - 6 mm (0.08 - 0.24 in) as shown on page 187. Full auger chain service including sprocket and bearing inspection is covered.
Manual Section: Attachments/Headers - 58Wiring harness fault codes, intermittent electrical gremlins on header control system
Start with open circuit and short-to-ground tests using the general electrical test sequence. Pull the wiring diagram and the pinout to trace the suspect circuit. Test the header type module resistance between pins A and B — reading should be 75 ohms (page 168). For confirmed harness damage, follow the repair and replacement procedure.
Manual Section: Electrical Systems - 55Frequently Asked Questions
Torque specs for auger mounting bolts on Case IH 3016
For auger mounting bolts, the manual generally refers to standard torque charts for tightening hardware. For example, when installing the auger arm or outer shaft bearing, you should tighten hardware to the torque found in the standard torque charts on pages 20-23. A specific instance for access cover bolts indicates a torque of 10.1 N·m (89 lb in).
Where to find torque specifications for pickup roll bearings on Case IH 3016
For the picking belt bearings, the M10 x 16 mm bolts should be tightened to the torque found in the standard torque charts. These charts are located on pages 20-23 of the manual. For M10 bolts, Class 8.8, unplated, the torque is 37 N·m (27 lb ft), and for plated, it is 49 N·m (36 lb ft).
