An agricultural implement operating on a field surface with growing crop plants comprises a plurality of divider mechanisms mounted in front of the implement wheels. Each divider mechanism comprises a divider member comprising a diversion member tapering laterally from a front end of the divider member, operative to push the crop plants away from a path of the wheel, and mounted to the implement by a parallel link assembly. An actuator is connected to the parallel link assembly and moves the divider member up and down. A control is operative to activate each actuator, and a sensor system senses a divider height of each divider member above the field surface. The sensor system is connected to the control such that the control is operative to specify a desired divider height for each divider member.

Also disclosed are agricultural harvester headers comprising the above adjustable assembly and a frame having a toolbar, as well as agricultural harvesters comprising such headers and other machinery comprising such adjustable assemblies.

An apparatus is configured for use with a ground-engaging wheel of a device configured to move in a travel direction. The apparatus includes a guard and bracket assembly, wherein the guard is configured to be movable over the wheel. The guard has forward portion, a back portion, and a width substantially covering a width of the wheel. The guard is configured to be movable over the wheel from a first position to a second position. In the first position, the forward portion of the guard is disposed proximate an upper portion of the wheel and the back portion of the guard is disposed proximate a rear portion of the wheel relative to the travel direction. In the second position, the forward portion of the guard is disposed proximate a front portion of the wheel and the back portion of the guard is disposed proximate an upper portion of the wheel.
