Front mowers DISC ALP
Front mowers DISC ALP
Safe mowing even on the most challenging mountain terrain. Front mower with the centre of gravity close to the tractor gives a great cut on extreme slopes.
DESIGNED FOR SAFE MOWING ON STEEP TERRAIN
Mowing steep terrains requires skilled driver and reliable machine. The DISC F ALP front mower with the lightweight construction and centre of gravity close to the tractor gives excellent visibility over the machine, ensures clean cut and safe mowing on the most challenging mountain terrain. The front-mounted disc mowers have a linkage adapted for use on mountain tractors.
CUTTER BAR ALP
For efficient mowing on demanding terrains and slopes, we have designed a welded cutter bar with specially shaped discs that ensure fast and efficient forage flow through the cutter bar.
SPECIALLY SHAPED DISCS
1 The specially shaped discs, made of 4 mm wear-resistant HARDOX steel, ensure excellent forage flow and a long lifespan for the components.
2 In case of overloading, the cutter bar is protected by the DDSS system. It consists of an intermediate flange with three brass pins, which break in the case of an overload, thus preventing damage to other elements. Replacing pins is quick and easy.
3 The axis of the disk drive system is attached to the cutter bar with a double closed bearing enabling it to withstand higher loads, thus ensuring a long service life of the cutter bar.
4 The QCS spring holder ensures that the blade retracts if it hits an obstacle. Blade holders are individually replaceable.
5 The wear skids are made of wear-resistant HARDOX steel. The specially shaped wear skids with a large surface area protect the cutter bar and divert soil and sand under the cutter bar, thus reducing forage contamination.
DISC DRIVE SAFETY SYSTEM - DDSS
In 2007 SIP developed a new generation cutter bar, in which the DDSS was incorporated for the first time. No warranty claim related to the cutter bar has been filed since.
3 brass pins ensure that work continues unimpeded in the event of a disc overload. Shearing of the brass pins absorbs the force and leaves the cutter bar intact.
