Technical highlights

The cutter bar - the new dimension

Best crop flow
Contamination-free pickup and transfer of the crop are important criteria in mower technology for the careful processing of forage. The contoured shape of the conical mower discs increases the effect of the paddles on crop flow, lowering the drag resistance of the mower.

Streamlined mower discs
Forage flows through the mower easily and uniformly. Tractor power requirement is lower as a result; dynamic crop flow means the mower is operating at peak efficiency all the time.

Optimised counter chop area
The slanted leading edge of the cutter bar allows the earth to flow beneath, separating it from the crop. There is a minimal gap between the upper edge of the cutter bar and the counter-rotating knives. This means that even heavy, flattened crop, or dry unfertilised grass can be cut to the highest quality.

Tidy and uniform cut due to optimised overlap of knife paths.
The sward is protected through the design of the smooth underside of the cutter bar, rounded skids at both ends and no sharp edges.

Assembly and transmission

Hardened mower discs
The oval, smooth mower discs are made of hardened fine-grained steel for extra long service. The sleek construction ensures power-saving crop flow.

Rotor shaft
The rotor shaft is bolted to the gear wheels. Each shaft can therefore be replaced economically if necessary.
Seal
The bearing flange and fittings are tightly sealed with a rubber O-ring seal.

Bearings
Heavy-duty, twin race angular contact bearings with a theoretical bearing spacing of 60 mm guarantee the best absorption of impacts – similar to a car axle.

Gear wheels
The bevel gears are arranged in a straight line and the disc gear wheels and idler gears are almost the same size (44 and 35 teeth). The bearing is subjected to less stress with an idler gear on either side. All gear wheels are hardened and ground for smooth running and a long service life. The teeth are 20 mm wide and there are always two teeth in contact.

Highest quality materials
Welded, inside shoe-free cutter bar made of best quality steel. Precision milled on CNC-controlled machining centre.

PERFECT!

Maintenance – unrestricted access
Straightforward maintenance is possible due to modular construction: bevel gears and bearings can be removed as a single unit, idler gears are also easy to remove through the large openings.
It doesn’t come any easier.

Shaft end held in the gear by a lock-nut - cost-effective to replace

Large, machined gear wheels
Gear wheels are 20 mm thick and engage on both sides for smooth running and a long service life.

Detailed information

Mounting configuration

Robust linkage frame with category II or III linkage pins
Adjustable lower linkage pins for ideal adaptation to any tractor hitch
Two different headstocks - ideal match of NOVADISC rear mower to the outer tracks of a wide range of tractors left: outer track 1800 - 2200 mm, right: outer track 2200 - 2600 mm

Drive system

Power is transmitted from the PTO shaft through the input gearbox to drive belts that drive the cutterbar gearbox Counter springs to protect the ground during mowing
A powerful counter spring ensures uniform alleviation of the entire mower
An adjustable spring on the boom provides reliable overall weight alleviation
The pressure on the ground can be varied by changing the height of the tractor hitch
The optimised position of the counter springs guarantees best possible weight alleviation of the cutter bar - even in extreme mowing conditions

Working position and lifting system

The tractor hitch does not need to be operated for lifting the mower at headlands - neither is any adjustment needed after the mower unit has been lowered
The mower unit is lifted using a hydraulic remote
NOVADISC lifting geometry: the cutter bar is lowered so that the outside contacts the ground slightly before the inside to protect the sward

Transport position - Safety first

For road transport, the mower is vertically folded hydraulically and then locked securely in the transport position
The pivot point on the mower is low-slung. This minimises the height of the unit during transport Collision protection - Convenient and reliable
This system is fitted as standard and features a mechanical collision protection device that unlatches on impact and engages again when the mower is reversed
The release pressure is set using a spring
