Kuhn 10030 D

KUHN FC 30 Series rear mounted mower conditioners deliver a clean cut with a wide cutting width and are ideal for large-acreage producers. These mowers provide high reliability and quick cutting to help produce quality forage at a high output. The high-lift discs and Lift-Control® hydropneumatic suspension ensure excellent cut quality and crop throughput, even in the toughest conditions. Fast-Fit® knives and the Optidisc® lubed-for-life cutterbar take the time and headache out of regular maintenance. Should the mower strike an obstacle while working, the continuous hydraulic safety automatically pivots up and back, minimizing the risk of damage. The ability to vary conditioning intensity to match harvesting windows is assured with the use of the 2-Speed DigiDry® finger conditioner and Diamond Block® rubber roller conditioner.

For the ultimate triple mower conditioner combination, pair one of these models with a KUHN FC 25 F Series front mount mower conditioner, and take productivity to a whole new level.

Whether you are a custom operator, dairy or beef producer, this combination unit, backed by years of research and development, will provide you with the cleanest cut and best conditioned crop.

Features may include:

The Optidisc® cutterbar provides a flat, streamlined profile so that soil and crop residue do not accumulate and material flows smoothly, even in heavy, difficult crop conditions. These mowers come standard with the Fast-Fit® quick release knife system. Optidisc cutterbars are designed and tested with a zero oil change interval. The highly-polished gears and synthetic gear oil ensure that this system does not require any regular internal maintenance, eliminating the need for cutterbar oil changes throughout the life of the machine.

The innovative design of the Optidisc cutterbar offers exclusive differential disc spacing.

• 1. Less Distance for a Clean Cut - Narrower spacing at diverging discs provides greater knife overlap, which results in a clean cut, even when the grass is short or light.

• 2. More Distance for Easy Crop Passage - Wider spacing at converging discs provides more space for the crop to pass. Cut crop is quickly carried away from the cutting area, greatly improving the cut quality.

The Fast-Fit® quick-release knife system allows an operator to rapidly change out cutting knives with the use of a simple tool, yet still retain optimum cut quality and knife life. With Fast-Fit, an operator can achieve up to 50% time savings over a standard system.

• Protectadrive® Safety: Every minute saved during the hay season is precious. Ultimate protection, from the externally removable Protectadrive disc bearing stations, provides maximum reliability and quick service. In the event of an impact between a disc and an obstacle, the shaft holding the disc can shear just above the bearing. This is thanks to its carefully dimensioned shear groove. As a result, the gear teeth are protected.

• Extra Rigidity Where it Counts: Disc bearing stations are attached by bolts that pass through the entire cutterbar. This is an exceptionally strong and secure attachment with no risk of mount being torn out of the cutterbar in case of shocks. The disc drive pinion is held precisely in place, all resulting in excellent reliability and reduced maintenance costs.
