Overview of 6- rotary tedder is provided in
Fig. 4
. 3-point linkage frame (
1
) with catch (
2
)
enables connecting tedder to the tractor 3-point linkage suspension. Drive with tractor PTO is
transmitted by intersectional gears onto rotors. The tedder comprises of five lateral drive (
4
),
(
5
),
(
6
),
(
7
) as well as main one (
3
), onto which rotors are set with arms (

The tedder has been equipped with ground following mechanism (
12
) enabling for following
the ground unevenness by the machine with use of 3-point linkage suspension stiff connector.
The tedder may be equipped with (optional) ground following wheel (
16
). Chain for
operating position adjustment (
14
) is used for operation on very uneven ground to be used instead
of the stiff connector. Chain (
15
) is used when adaptation range of the mechanism (
