A weeding tool (5) is provided in front of the pulling device (2), and the lower tip of the weeding tool (5) is fixed to the support frame (6) of the reaping device il+. and an ultrasonic sensor (9) consisting of a transmitter (7) and a receiver (8).
However, in order to prevent malfunctions caused by grain culms, the weeding tool (5
), the hydraulic cylinder (10) is operated based on the height above the ground detected by the ultrasonic sensor (3). The cutting height is adjusted by swinging the cutting section Il+ around the horizontal axis (P1).
