DESCRIPTION
Samasz Disc Mower –KDTC Central SuspensionKDTC mowers have been the first disc mowers with central suspension
in our offer. They have been manufactured since 2008 and have gone
thorough modernization in order to be up to present conditions.
Developed and proved design is an economic alternative to KT mowers.
They can be equipped interchangeably with tine or roller conditioner.
Hydraulic safety breakaway device
KDTC mowers have the same hydraulic safety breakaway device as
double-sided mowers. It protects mower against hitting into small
obstacles. In the event of hitting an immovable obstacle the cutterbar
folds back about 30 degrees and at the same time rises about 50 cm.
Afterwards, the cutterbar automatically comes back to its working
position.
Transport position and taking turns over swaths
Putting the mower into its transport and working position and taking turns over swaths by means of hydraulic cylinder.
Advantages of use of KDTC mowers
- Equipped with modern Perfect CUT cutterbar
• Mechanical lock when taking turns over swaths
• Regulated speed of cutting unit lowering
• Regulated swath guides
• Central suspension enables even weight balance on the ground and perfect ground following
• Wide range of inclination (up to 24 degrees) enables operation on uneven or steep terrain
• The drive from central gearbox to cutterbar’s intersecting axis gear
is done through PTO shaft with friction clutch, which protects the
cutterbar against any damage.
PERFECT CUT
Based on the experience of our customers in Poland and in Western
Europe we have introduced to our production a new model of cutterbar:
Perfect CUT. Precise cut, high durability of components, protection
against sudden disc stop in case of coming into an obstacle, quick and
easy disc module replacement owing to modernized upper disc hub are the
main advantages of Perfect CUT cutterbars. New cutterbar is mounted in
every SaMASZ disc mower apart from KDL series based on Comer cutterbar.
Main advantages of PerfectCUT cutterbar:
1.Smooth regulation of cutting height from 4 to 7 cm.- sliding skids from 5 to 9 cm
2.6307 2RSN bearings in bevel gears and 6307 2RS in
disc modules are the most durable and unprecedented among our european
competion.
3.Specially hardened discs and sliding skids made of Boron steel, protected against mud and dirt by means of the blades.
4.Easily replaceable knife holder pins.
5.Hardened knife holder made of Boron steel, especially designed in order to eliminate stucking of the knives under the disc.
6.Innovative system of quick knife replacement. The
knife can be changed only when the disc is adjusted sheer to the
cutterbar (+ – 30 degrees). The system decreases the probability of
knife loss almost to absolute minimum in case of hitting into stone.
7.Modernized, hardened sliding skids made of Boron
steel protect the whole surface of cutterbar on the bottom. Quick and
easy replacement of the skids (only two bolts to unscrew).
8.Additional steel skid protecting cutterbar’s drive.
9.Hardened cutterbar made of steel.
10.Protection against stones in standard equipment.
11.Quick and easy replacement of disc module thanks to modernized upper hub.
12.Bevel gears with 25 mm tightness.
13.High quality knives comply with strict safety rules. SaMASZ logo engraved on the knife is a guarantee of its quality.
Protection against stones in standard equipment
Specially designed disc module protects the cutterbar with bevel gears
in case of very strong, extreme hit of the disc e.g in a stone. The
force of the hit cuts off only the key. Then, only the module needs to
be replaced without the necessity of expensive cutterbar repair. The
replacement of the module takes only a while and can be done on the
field. Owing to that solution the time crucial during forage pick-up is
spared. Modernized upper disc hub enables quick module replacement.
Special cavities for bolts make it very easy to disssemble the module
without the necessity of unscrewing upper hub. The drive of the discs is
transmitted by means of bevel gears with high diameter, which increases
the resistance of the disc in case of hitting into an immovable
obstacle.
Comparison of bevel gears
Our mowers are equipped with Perfect CUT cutterbars based on bevel gears transmitting higher strength.
Perfect quality of cut with Perfect CUT cutterbar
New Perfect Cut cutterbars have high quality of cutting even with
very low grass during 3, 4 and further cuts. During 1 and 2 cut when
high grass prevails it is recommended to cut with height between 53 mm
and 68 mm. Depending on the angle of cutterbar’s inclination there are
the following cutting heights.
Perfectly profiled design
Rounded shapes of cutterbar’s bottom surpass the designs of other
manufacturers. Streamline shape facilitates operation on more earthen
and stony paddocks. No sharp edges on the whole cutterbar, smooth
surfaces of sliding skids give protection to the turf.
