On Tuesday this week in Gurteen College, ahead of Thursday's FTMTA Grass and Muck event, New Holland put their Disccutter 280P mounted mower-conditioner and Prorotor C760 twin-rotor rake to work. This is the first time either machine has been seen by the public in Ireland or the UK since the products were launched at Agritechnica last November.
The rebranded machines are a result of the acquisition of Kongskilde by New Holland earlier last year. Although details are limited on either product, we do know the DiscCutter rear mower-conditioner range comes with hydraulic suspension and stone release. The conditioner rotor is fitted with toughened plastic conditioner tines arranged in a v-shape. For transport, the mower folds vertically.
The ProRotor C760 twin-rotor rake is fitted with 12-tine arms on each rotor, which are made up of two parts for ease of replacement if damaged and to reduce transport height when folded. Each arm is fitted with four spring-loaded tines. Mechanical rear-wheel steering is fitted for smaller headland turns and a swivelling wheel at the front of each rotor reduces scuffing during work. Mechanical rotor work height adjustment and a transport locking system are also fitted.
