DURABLE CUTTERBAR TECHNOLOGY
The cutterbar is central to the mower's performance. Each model features a low-profile design with a smooth underside and a broad bearing surface, ensuring minimal ground pressure. This design protects both the field and the crop, promoting faster regrowth. Additionally, the low profile allows for cutting down to a 40mm stubble height, enabling the harvesting of more of your crop.
Ease of use
The cutterbar’s twisted blades are designed for quick and easy replacement using a specialized tool. Maintenance is straightforward, with ‘on top’ access making servicing simple. The bearing hubs can be swiftly removed for efficient servicing.
PE conditioner Fingers
These flexible Polyethylene fingers are highly adaptable, lightweight, and require minimal maintenance. They are particularly suited for cattle fodder production. If a finger is lost in the crop, it poses no risk to livestock or forage harvesters.
Tailored conditioning
Depending on the crop, its moisture content, and the intended use, the degree of conditioning can be quickly and easily adjusted using a single handle.
Prepared for the unexpected
Unexpected field obstacles are a fact of life, but with DuraDisc™ F, DiscCutter™ F, DiscCutter™, and MegaCutter™ models, you don't need to worry. These mowers are equipped with New Holland ShockPro™ disc drive hubs, which protect the disc drive modules from damage. When a disc encounters an obstruction, the partially splined hub is designed to shear, safeguarding the cutterbar drive. This system ensures everything remains securely fitted, allowing you to replace the damaged hub with minimal cost and disruption.
TopDry™ feature
This impressive feature, available on DiscCutter™ models fitted with PE fingers or Steel Flail conditioners, enables the wide spreading of crop over 85% of the cutting width. By actively forcing the crop into the conditioner, it delivers a higher degree of conditioning. The wider swath exposes more of the crop to the air, minimizing drying time—especially beneficial in less-than-ideal weather conditions. The degree of top drying can be easily adjusted with a single handle.
Robust suspension
The three-point suspension is constructed from high-strength steel, ensuring both compact and stable operation. This design results in a lower overall operating weight and reduces stress on the tractor, enhancing performance and longevity.
Optional conditioner
The entire MegaCutter range can be specified with or without a conditioner, offering flexibility to suit various crop types and processing needs.
Cutter bar
The cutter bar features a shallow cutting angle and is equipped with guide shoes that span the entire width. This design ensures a consistent flow of material across the cutter bar, resulting in clean and even stubble. The guide shoes cover the full length of the cutter bar, promoting optimal regrowth. Blade replacement is quick and straightforward, achieved with a supplied tool that releases the blade directly from the safety pin.
Drying assistance: TopDry™ system
With a single handle, the machine can be adjusted for both wide spreading and enhanced conditioning. This feature is especially advantageous when working within narrow weather windows, as the TopDry system speeds up the drying process, which helps in preserving the nutritional value of the crop.
One sided mowing
The ability to independently lift the two rear mower wings allows for mowing with just one side of the machine. This feature is ideal for working in narrow fields and along tapered field edges, enhancing versatility and efficiency in various field conditions.
Easy obstacle release
The adjustable mechanical obstacle release feature allows the entire cutter unit to move backwards upon encountering an obstruction. This helps prevent damage to the mower by enabling it to navigate around obstacles effectively.
