3-point linkage frame (1) enables attachment of the mower to tractor's 3-point linkage. Drive from
tractor rpm is transmitted through PTO (9) and intersecting axis gear I (3) onto drive shafts (6), which,
through intersecting axis gears II (7) power the cutterbars (4). The cutterbars have discs with two knives
each. Moreover drive from the tractor rpm, through intersecting axis gear (3), drive shafts (6),
intersecting axis gears II (7) and belt transmission (13) is transmitted onto swath rollers (14). Hydraulic
lifting cylinders (2) fed from the tractor external hydraulics are used for adjusting the mower to working
position. Main frame (11), on which cutterbars (4) are installed, is unloaded with springs (8). On main
frame, safety guards (5) are mounted. The mower is equipped with warning and signal plates (10) fixed
on the conveyors, as standard.
In two-sided mowers with conveyors (14), conveyor belts (15) are powered by the hydraulic
system. The system comprises hydraulic pump (16) connected to intersecting axis gear I (3). Each
conveyor is equipped with hydraulic cylinder (18) to move conveyor belts with energy transferred by
hydraulic oil. While conveyors are being powered, the oil temperature increases. Hydraulic oil
temperature is kept at an adequate level by cooler (17) with thermostat. During operation a conveyor
can be lifted by means of cylinders (19). Turning conveyors (independently) on and off is possible
through electric console provided in the tractor operator's cabin.
