The sickle drive is a hydraulically driven planetary gear system which provides an absolutely linear knife movement.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The planetary gear system is in rotation at all times, so there are no peak starting and stopping loads as in a wobble box system. The drive also maintains a high cutting force, so it works well in all cereal, grass and forage, and specialty crops. The sickle drive system is very simple, as it uses no shafts, belts, or sheaves, reducing maintenance. The gears are in exact alignment with the knife, so the knife does not move up and down, or side to side during it’s stroke, for better cutting performance, and less sickle and guard wear.

The draper reel is hydraulically driven, the speed is controlled from the cab so the operator is able to match reel speed to field conditions on the go. Hydraulic reel raise and lower is standard with an optional kit available for electric reel fore / aft movement. The reel is strong enough to handle heavy crops and the flip over tine action prevents crops from wrapping around the reel increasing efficiency.

The shiftable draper header can operate in the center delivery mode, or with the drapers shifted to the right or left.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shiftable draper headers are available in 22-, 25-, and 30-foot cutting widths. To double swath, the operator shifts the left draper to the center using the two position switch in the cab. The two draper carriages can then be locked together, using the lever on the header. The carriages can then be shifted for right end or left end delivery. When the draper carriages are shifted, the draper belt rotation is also set automatically.
