The F350M Front-Mounted Mower is used to maximize the potential of the 7R or 8R Tractor equipped with a front power take-off (PTO) and front hitch. This 1000-rpm mower can be combined with the following 1000 rpm mower to increase productivity:

  • Twin rear-mounted mower

Unmatched productivity is gained with cutting widths up to 9.9 m (32.5 ft) in one pass along with a narrow transport width.

The A-frame adapter enables quick and easy installation of the F350M Front-Mounted Mower. The adapter attaches to the tractor’s front 3-point hitch and locks into the mating headstock that is part of the mower.

  • Enables easy attaching/detaching of front-mounted mower

Down stop chains are included for use with tractors, such as the 8R, without front hitch position sensing. A front chain support kit (RE327692) is required to connect the down stop chains on an 8R Tractor.

 

The 7R Tractors are equipped with position sensing that has the ability to establish front hitch set points from the CommandCenter™ controls. Position sensing will maintain the height of the hitch arms based on the set point.

 

The front chain support kit (RE327692) is not required for 7R Tractors, but damage to the front PTO driveshaft can occur if the front hitch positioning is not set correctly, or if the set point is manually overridden.

Hydraulic cylinders are used to raise and lower the cutting platform when crossing headlands.

  • Front tractor hitch is not used to raise and lower the cutting platform.
  • Uses single-acting selective control valve (SCV) to raise platform.
  • Lift cylinder operation must be independent of the front hitch operation.

Large farms, machinery rings and contractors need high quality output, and ease of serviceability.

  • The cutterbars are fast mowing, with high quality work and reliable set-up.
  • Each disc is protected against heavy shocks with a shear point located on the disc drive.
  • All modules and intermediate gears are quickly and easily interchangeable.

To meet high quality output, the cutterbar is an oil-immersed, gear-driven cutting bed.

  • All discs are offering an orbital cutting diameter of 440 mm (17.3 in.).
  • With seven discs, the cutting width will be 3.1 m (10.2 ft). With eight discs, the cutting width will be 3.5 m (11.5 ft).
  • Disc speeds are 2986 rpm.

To meet serviceability, the cutting bed is lubricated for life:

  • No oil changes necessary.
  • Discs are fitted with quick change knives technology.
  • Cutting height is from 35 to 85 mm (1.4 to 3.3 in.).

Time needed to change a knife is below 15 seconds. It is an efficient way to gain up to 30 minutes of maintenance time on the mower conditioners.

 

Turnbuckle adjustment Turnbuckle adjustment

Cutting height is adjusted by changing the turnbuckle on the front hitch. Cutting range is from 35 mm to 85 mm (1.4 in. to 3.3 in.).
