Cutterbar deflectors attach to the cutterbar just below the conditioner rolls and provide improved feeding into the
conditioner rollers by preventing crop from feeding under the rolls when cutting heavy crops with long stems.
Cutterbar deflectors may not be well-suited for all environments, such as sandy conditions, and are easily removed
or installed in the field.
