Abstract: A maize header comprising multiple mowing and infeed units (units 10), the first lateral mowing and infeed units (units 10b) are laterally next to central mowing and infeed units (units 10a), second lateral mowing and infeed units (units 10c) are laterally next to the first units (10b), and units (10d) are laterally next to the second units (10c), wherein, to transfer the maize header (2) between the working and a transport position, the units (10) are pivotable relative to one another about horizontal pivot axes (16) so that each of the units (10b) is pivotable about a first pivot axis (16a), each of the units (10c) is pivotable about a second pivot axis (16b), and each of the units (10d) is pivotable about a third pivot axis (16c), wherein a pivot angle (?1) about the axes (16a) is 164°±4°, a pivot angle (?2) about the (16b) is 180°±4°, and a pivot angle (?3) about the axes (16c) is 184°±4°.
