Claas is renewing its widest conditioner mower, the Disco 1100 C/RC Business. The telescopic arms of the mowers, which are up to 10.70m wide, have been reinforced and also fitted with additional spring-loaded sliding elements. Claas says this ensures a constant contact pressure at all times, which has a positive effect on driving comfort.

The maximum working width of 10.70m can be reduced hydraulically to 9.60m, whereby both arms can be adjusted independently of each other or synchronised to ensure optimum overlap in tight corners or when working on side slopes. Despite the two 3.80m wide mowing units, the mower remains under 4.0m in height during road transport.

With the optional slope control, the mower automatically adjusts the ground pressure and overlap to the front mower depending on the side slope. The newly designed HD swivel joint on the headstock ensures significantly better accessibility when attaching and removing the mower.

Conditioners

The 1100 Business is available with two different conditioners. The first is a polyurethane roller conditioner for gentle conditioning with V-shaped interlocking polyurethane rollers. The roller spacing can be adjusted using the ratchet spanner. The comes as standard in a double drive with a scissor gearbox. The second option is the tine conditioner and spirally arranged Y-steel tines for normal grass harvesting. The conditioner intensity can be adjusted for maximum efficiency.

IsoBus and load-sensing

The Business operation of the mowers with load-sensing and IsoBus enable semi-automated interaction with modern tractors. For example, a slope control system with inclination sensor can be supplied as an option to adjust and mirror the Active Float Support pressure control and arm positions to counteract slope drift and striping at the touch of a button.
