Abstract

A harvesting machine comprises a body which rests on the ground both in a work position and in a transport position through at least one wheel connected directly or indirectly to the body. The harvesting machine includes an orientation element used to orient the wheel in a direction of transport. The orientation of the wheel for the purpose of transport is performed in a simple and quick manner, while allowing, during work, the pivoting of the wheel around its shaft connecting it to the body.
