An agricultural vehicle includes a chassis a header carried by the chassis and including a cutter mechanism, the header being adjustable in a vertical direction a swath roller carried by the chassis behind the header a roller actuator connected to the swath roller and configured to adjust the swath roller in the vertical direction and a controller coupled to the roller actuator. The controller is configured for: detecting when the header raises in the vertical direction recording a header raising point where the header raises determining when the swath roller reaches the header raising point and signaling the roller actuator to raise the swath roller when the swath roller reaches the header raising point.
