INTRODUCTION
The LELY SPLENDIMO MC disc mower/conditioner is used
for mowing grass lands. Mowing on slopes up to approx. 20°
up and 20° down is within the machine’s capability.
The machine is built up of a cutter bar and a conditioner unit.
The cutter bar is fitted with discs of the “S” or “N” model
(fig. 1). The cutter bar is composed of cutting units according
to the modular Lely system. These elements as well as the
intermediate spacers are torqued together by a connecting
rod.
The first cutting unit is driven from the top. A springsteel
shaft, which is driven from the first cutting unit, drives the
other units of the cutter bar.
Cutting units rotate either to the left or right. Standard
configurations are shown in fig. 2.
If required, the cutting units of the SPLENDIMO MC mower/
conditioner with “S” model discs can be fitted in a different
configuration.
The conditioner unit comprises of a rotor fitted with fingers
made of an impact-resistant synthetic material, an aluminium
hood with swathboards as well as a crop inlet plate for
adjustment of conditioning intensity.
The conditioner unit operates over almost the full cutting
width. Crop treatment is such that patches of the waxy layer
on the stem are removed and that thick stems are broken. The
crop is slightly turned and laid down behind the machine in
an airy, narrow swath. There is a minimum contact between
the crop and the moist field and there is no need to drive on
mown crops.
The SPLENDIMO MC mower/ conditioner can be controlled
with just one hydraulic ram.
A breakback device prevents damage to the machine if an
obstacle is hit.
