A harvester including a header having a first illumination device positioned on a right outermost arm of the header and a second illumination device positioned on a left outermost arm on the header. The first and second illumination devices each project a spot beam of light in a corresponding direction of travel of the harvester to illuminate a right edge travel path of the right outermost arm and to illuminate a left edge travel path of the left outermost arm. The first and second illumination devices, respectively, are configured to illuminate right and left crop dividers, respectively, mounted on the right and left outermost arms. The harvester may include an auto-steering system to rotate a steering wheel of the harvester to a designated steering angle and to rotate the first and second illumination devices to a first and second angle, respectively, that correspond to the designated steering angle.
