EUROCAT drum-type mowers
   The newly-developed drums on the EUROCAT drum-type mowers deliver high-quality work in all conditions.
  • The ultimate design of drum body tackles the densest of crops without problem.
  • Not affected by dirt.
  • Swath can be placed using swath formers.
  • Changing from conditioner with wide-spread to swath formers takes just minutes.

Best crop flow
  • Low-slung design - trouble-free transfer from mower disc to conditioner.
  • Inner drum bodies are smaller diameter for improved clearance.
  • Heavy-duty inside body with large bearings.
  • Outer mower drum is bolted to gear trough for straightforward removal.
The big plus ...
EUROCAT with infinitely-variable cutting height adjustment system
  • The height of all 4 drums can be adjusted simultaneously from above.
  • The heavy-duty adjustment system is fully sealed in a metal housing encapsulated by a rubber boot.
Benefits:
  • Smooth working and always easy to adjust.
  • Easy access.
  • Cutting height adjustable from 35 to 60 mm.
  • High-cut saucers optional (20 mm extra cutting height).

Extra-dry-conditioner
   Extra dry conditioners carefully rub the layer of wax covering the crop. The forage is then deposited across the full width in an airy blanket. The power of the sun has immediate and full effect. Advantages of the "extra dry" technology:
  • Shorter drying period in the field, less risk from the weather.
  • Increasing energy content by up to 10% saves on concentrates.
  • Better silage quality due to rapid reduction in PH-value
  • No tedding (or less tedding) required, which saves time and simplifies the process.
New roller conditioner
The roller conditioner is especially suitable for lucerns and clovers due to its precision conditioning capabilities.
The profile of the new Pöttinger roller conditioner is spiral-shaped. The rollers intermesh to uniformly squash the stalks and produce a uniform blanket of forage. On Pöttinger conditioners both rollers are driven. The degree of conditioning can be adjusted by altering the spring-loading of the upper roller.

Conditioners with V-shaped tines
    • The wide rotor ensures that even really large quantities pass through easily. Robust bearing assemblies on either side.
    • Conditioned crop spread over the full width - thin layer, optimized degree of conditioning.
    • V-shaped conditioner tines on all units mounted on Pöttinger mowersarranged in a spiral for a smooth flow of forage without torque peaks
    • The steel tines are mounted in rubber bushes.
    • Impact from foreign objects is absorbed and the crop is protected

    Removable in minutes ...
    If you don't need the conditioner you simply remove it; e.g. for the daily green feed requirement. Open two quick-release coupling pins, release the rotor drive belt tensioner and remove the belts. Attach auxiliary wheels on either side and wheel the complete conditioner away - it's as easy as that.
     

    IMPORTANT!


    Steel fingers
    with rubber dampers. The absorption characteristics of the rubber elements protect the conditioner and the forage.


    Plastic fingers
    on NOVACAT 225/265 ED for lower weight so that they can be operated using smaller tractors.

    Remove on your own
    Release coupling pins - remove v-belts - wheel the conditioner away.

     Rotor drive
    l No additional angular gear unit required. l Power is transmitted direct from the cutter bar shaft to the rotor using drive belts.




    The ultimate: "Floating cut" with countersprung carrier frame and centre pivot suspension
    1. Adjustable mounting pins for full width mowing without driving
    2. over existing swath
    3. Always handy -toolbox in frame for spare knives and accessories.
    4. Reliable drive shaft fitted with universal joint, freewheel and overload protection.
    5. Automatic breakaway device provides reliable protection against damage.
    6. Bevel gears with precission ground teeth run smoothly.
    7. Encapsulated cutting height adjustment.
    8. Wide pivot arc for improved adaptation to uneven ground and embankments.
    Time is money
    Mower drum can be removed without dismantling gears.

    CAT 230 / plus / ED with 2,25 m working width

    Lift system
  • For field transport the mower is just raised to the side, the tractor hydraulic ram is always in the same position and does not need to be readjusted.
    Pivoted upwards
  • Easy access for servicing, changing knives, and adjusting cutting height.
    Breakaway device
  • The pivoting mechanism for road transport also serves as the safety path for the breakaway device.
    Three transport positions on CAT 230 plus / plus ED
  • Raised hydraulically to the side.
  • Pivoted to the rear and raised - minimal transport width (centre of gravity close to tractor).
  • Just pivoted to rear for low clearances.
