Fig. 2c. Design of KDC 300 W and KDC 340 W trailed disc mower with swath conditioner 

 
 

Hitch  (14)  is  designed  to  mount  the  mower  on  a  tractor.  Drive  onto  cutterbar  (4)  is 

transmitted  from the  tractor's  rpm  through  PTO  shaft  onto  intersecting  axis  gear  (19),  drive  shaft 
located on tiller (13), wide-angle PTO shaft (6) onto intersecting axis gear (20), cutterbar drive shaft 
(5) and intersecting axis gear (7). Cutterbar has discs mounted with two rotary knives each. Extreme 
most  discs  have  additionally  mounted  swath  guiding  drums.  Moreover  drive  from  tractor's  rpm 
through  intersecting  axis  gear  (20),  drive  shaft  (10)  and  chain  gear  (9)  is  transmitted  onto  swath 
conditioner  (3a)  or  rollers  (3b).  Cutterbar  is  mounted  on  linkage  (1).  Protective  guard  (16)  is 
mounted  over  the  cutterbar.  Maneuvering  with  the  mower  when  driving  is  possible  owing  to  two 
hydraulic cylinders (12) which connect tiller to mower's linkage. 
 

Well-proven design and quality materials ensure high reliability and durability of SaMASZ 

machines.
