The suspension frame (1) allows the mower to be connected to the three point hitch of
the tractor.
Drive from tractor rpm is transmitted through PTO shaft, intersecting axis gear (8) onto driving
shaft (7), which drives the cutterbar (4) through intersecting axis gear (8). Moreover drive from
the tractor rpm is transmitted onto
crop scarifier
(3) through intersecting axis gear (9), PTO shaft
(7), intersecting axis gear (9) and chain drive (13).
On the cutterbar (4) there are discs with two cutting blades each.
Hydraulic lifting cylinder (2) fed from the tractor external hydraulics is used to adjust
the mower to working position.
3-point linkage frame, onto which spring suspended cutterbar is set (14).
The mower is also equipped with a rotational actuator (10), which has two functions. The first
one is the ability to fold the mower backwards which, in many cases, significantly simplifies
transport, while the second is the factory calibrated hydraulic safety device (11).
On the 3-point linkage frame there is safety guard (6) mounted.
The crop guides (5) are installed on the upper cover of the scarifier.
Support foot (12) is mounted to 3-point linkage frame (1).
