Rotational  suspended  disc  mower  is  designed  for  mowing  the  following:  common  grass, 
medick, etc on meadows and on stone free fields as well as forming swath out of these. Meadow 
being mowed should be even, previously prepared by rolling. With advantage of high grass the 
first  and  the  second  row  should  be  cut  at  height  of  6  -  7  cm,  while  with  great  share  of  lower 
grass – at 5 cm. Therefore, the final row should be cut a little bit higher so 7 - 8 cm from the 
ground. 

 

 

Trailed  mower  with  swath  conditioner/rollers  is  designed  for  mowing  the  following:  common 
grass, medick, etc on meadows and on stone free fields as well as forming swath out of these. 
As a result of shifting the consequent forage layers due to operating flails/roller grass stalks are 
being  broken  and/or  crushed  as  well  as  are  loosing  wax  layer.  It  makes  grass  drying  process 
simpler  and  faster  by  approx.  30  -  40%.  Rollers  are  particularly  recommended  for  mowing 
papilionaceous grasses such as medick. 

 

Meadow being mowed should be even, previously prepared by rolling and other processing. 

 

NOTE

: Mow very rare grass with zero angle inclination.
