In 1984 and 1985 Her X-1 was observed by EXOSAT during two 35 day cycles. A pulse profile change was observed and modeled by a free precessing neutron star. It is shown that the progressive intensity reduction from the left to the right pulse flank of the main pulse can be described by a highly ionized obscurating screen at the inner magnetospheric boundary of the accretion disk. There is evidence that the neutron Her X-1 performs a free precession movement.
