When it comes to drying hay, it’s nearly impossible to beat Mother Nature.
Of course, farmers have utilised nature’s resources – like the wind and sun – for as long as seeds have been planted in the ground. Today, you can accelerate Mother Nature’s gifts by spreading the crop with a professional-grade Massey Ferguson TD Series tedder.
Working Conditions
As with all Massey Ferguson hay tedders, the forage is picked up by the tines and turned gently, without damage. A light, loose and well mixed mat of forage is created, to help ensure a top quality end-product. With the central edge spreading device which is fitted as standard, edges of fields no longer present any problems. It’s all high quality forage down to the last blade of grass. Because of the spreading angle adjustment system, you can always adapt your machine according to the harvesting situation. In the working position, the transport chassis is folded up in front of the rotors, which ensures an optimum centre of gravity.
As a result, the chassis does not stand in the ejection path of the forage and the loading created by the centre rotors is reduced to a minimum – perfect pre-requisites for producing your high quality forage.
SEVENTEEN MODELS
Seventeen MF models provide tedding widths from 4.5 metres to 12.70 metres. Each one offers easily adjusted spreading angles of 15, 18 and 20.5 degrees for adaptability in all forage and crop conditions.
SIMPLE TO SET UP AND ADJUST
All MF models are simple to set up and adjust for quick and efficient ground coverage. Synchronised lifting of exterior rotors via a centralised hydraulic lift system and pressure cylinders ensure optimum performance and eliminate one-sided loads – even on slopes.
SLS (SECURITY LOCK SYSTEM)
SLS (Security Lock System) prevents driveline damage during folding operations.
ROTOR HEAD
Fully enclosed rotor head for low maintenance and long service life.
TINE ARMS
Smooth flat steel tine arms provide excellent power distribution with no crop hang-up.
