3-point linkage frame (1) enables attachment of the mower to tractor’s 3-point linkage. Drive
from tractor’s rpm is transmitted through intersecting axis gear (6) on PTO shaft (8), which through
intersecting axis gear (7) drives the cutterbar (4). On the cutterbar, there are discs with two knives
each. Apart from that, drive from tractor’s rpm through intersecting axis gear (6), PTO shaft (8),
intersecting axis gear (7) and chain gearbox (10) is transmitted to roller conditioner (3). Hydraulic
cylinder (2) is used to adjust the mower to working position. It is supplied from outer hydraulics of
the tractor. Main frame, on which the cutterbar is situated, is supported by the springs (11). On top
of roller conditioner’s safety guard there are swath guides (5) mounted. Additionally, the mower
can be equipped with belt conveyors (11 Fig. 5). They are driven by their own hydraulic system and
consist of hydraulic pump (12 Fig. 4), oil cooler (13 Fig. 4) and two hydraulic engines (14 Fig. 5).
Switching on and off the conveyors (independent) is done by means of electric console mounted in
tractor’s cabin.
