General Information
The suspension system frame (1) is used to connect the mower with the tractor. The main frame (4) is connected pivotally with the
suspension frame through the central beam (2). The cutting system is made of two operating drums (7) with blades attached rotation-
ally in their lower part. The drums rest on the stump jumpers (8) when in the operating position, which adjust to the ground contours.
Changing the position of the mower from the transport position to the operating position and backwards is made possible through the
pivotal connection of the of the suspension system frame with the central beam. The guards and shield (8) protect the machine oper-
ator and other people from any hard object, which might be thrown out from under by the operating drums (7).
The spring fuse prevents damages of the mower when the cutting system moves onto an obstacle; the operating drums are powered
by the tractor's PTO. The drums along with the blades rotate in opposite directions cutting the forage and forming it into windrows.
The one-way slip clutch allows for free movement of the drums after disengaging the engine and protects the drive elements from
any damage.
