ABSTRACT:
An end knife guard for a cutterbar assembly has a body portion forming a lower section and an upper section spaced in relation to one another to define a horizontal slot within which a knife section is confined, and freely movable. The lower section has an inboard lateral side edge that forms a cutting surface. An outboard lateral side edge forms a surface that tapers laterally inward from the forward end of the body portion to form an open area for discharge of trash at the end of the cutterbar assembly. The tapered outboard edge is positioned adjacent to the upright wall of a platform end divider cover. Such that the open area for discharge of trash is between the guard outboard edge and the divider cover, allowing trash to drop from the guard while maintaining the divider cover outer wall close to the end of the cutterbar assembly.
