  Features

Single-Pass Efficiency - Stretched Large Disc Cutterbar

Close to a 1-to-1 ratio cut width to conditioning width as requested by the customers (DC133 only)
Wider conditioners equate to thinner crop mat passing through conditioning system for improved consistent and thorough crop conditioning for faster dry down
Allows for wider swath and greater sun exposure for improved natural dry down
Reduced crop travel between cutterbar and conditioners minimizing plugging, especially in cane, energy and high-volume crops
Aids in the elimination of co-rotating discs on a 13 ft. model and one set on the 16 ft. model

Single-Pass Efficiency - Stretched

Simplified Drivelines and Shielding

Driveshaft to left-hand end only for reduced clutter and cost, and more robust appearance
Swivel gearbox does not require steering link; PTO shafts maintain perfect alignment
Poly, bi-fold upper shielding is:
        lighter and provides easier access
        more damage resistant
        damaged resistant if a shield is inadvertently left open and the unit is pivoted
Focus on Feed Quality

The DC3 series disc mower conditioners provide industry leading cut and crimp for superior hay quality and optimal windrow formation.
 
Optimal Cut & Crimp for Highest Quality Hay

Low-profile cutterbar with wide dics cut closer and cleaner to encourage faster crop regrowth
Agronomic design improvements help maintain harvest quality and retain nutrients
Updated cutterbar improves crop flow and delivers more even windrows
Consistently faster and more even dry down thanks to the industry-leading conditioning roll widths
Designed for easy, uninterrupted use

Easy machine adjustments provide the flexibility to meet individual and varied crop preparation standards
No-tools adjustment of conditioners, swath doors and swath boards for an easy in-field adjustments
Lightweight, impact-resistance access doors provide simplified access for any adjustment
Maintenance is minimized thanks to fewer discs and a simplified drive system
More counter-roatating discs provide efficient crop feeding into conditioners
Ready when you need it

Added durability thanks to larger gears, bearings and interconnecting shafts
Modular cutterbar design provides superior lubrication compared to competitive systems, and eliminates cross-contamination if an internal failure were to occur
Shock protection system saves time and money when obstacles are encountered
Simplified drive system with fewer parts
Larger heavier components provide you with long-lasting durability

The cutterbar on the new DC3 series mower conditioners will feature the same large disc cutterbar system featured on the RD3 series disc headers for the WD3 series DC3 disc mower conditioners. The combination of larger disc diameters and wider conditioning systems allows the crop to move rearward off the cutterbar sooner to improve crop flow and windrow consistency in tall crops
Large Disc Cutterbar

Customer benefits include:

Larger gears, bearings and interconnecting shafts for greater durability
Larger and heavier components allow for heavier shock protection system reducing disc failures
Larger diameter discs provide lower cut heights at reduced tilt angle resulting in consistent cut height without scalloping
Larger diameter discs create a smooth and shorter transition of crop flow to the conditioning system for improved windrow formation
 Reduced number of discs means fewer moving parts and lower potential maintenance costs
Elimination of co-rotating discs

Conditioner - 125" wide; Disc Diameter - 24.3"
Aids in the elimination of co-rotating discs on a 13 ft. model and one set on the 16 ft. model
The most reliable rotary disc cutterbed anywhere...

...one that survives the toughest cutting conditions with minimum maintenance.
DC2 Disc Mower Conditioners Feature:

A modular cutterbar design with superior crop flow, resulting in less streaking
A heavy-duty frame and rugged canopy that have a cantilevered design for smooth crop flow across the cutterbar
Shock hubs, now standard on all four models of DC2 rotary disc mowers
Roll and flail conditioning options available on all models
Shock Hubs

Shock hubs are now standard on all four models of DC Series rotary disc mower conditioners. The system replaces the drive hub of discs with a shock hub, making in-field repairs fast and easy.

Helps prevent time-robbing, expensive field failures when an obstruction is encountered
Shock hub “takes the blow” from collisions with rocks and debris
Protects internal components of the cutterbed
Disc Modules

Bearings, gears and lubricant for each disc module are individually sealed — damage to one module does not spread to another
Modular design ensures complete gear lubrication, even when cutting on slopes
Two heavy-duty knives on each disc spin at 3000 rpm to slice through heavy crops
        Knives are reversible for twice the cutting life
        One bolt per knife allows for quick flipping or replacing of knives from the front of the cutterbed — without raising the header
The steep profile design lifts the crop directly into conditioning rolls
Discs are austempered for extra hardness and durability in punishing conditions
Bale or Chop Sooner

Spiral steel-on-steel or rubber-on-rubber conditioning rolls provide fast drydown
Saves time in the field by clearing slugs automatically
Allows for easy changes in conditioning intensity
Custom-built windrows or swaths
        Spread the crop out in a wide, fast-drying swath
        Form the crop into a narrow, fluffy windrow that’s ready for baling or chopping
        All adjustments to the swathboard, windrow shields and fluffing baffle can be made without tools
Conditioning Rolls

Torsion-bar design
Applies equal force to the upper conditioning roll arms
Provides uniform conditioning, regardless of crop thickness
Intermeshing spiral conditioning rolls have superior crimping and crushing action for faster drydown
Rubber-on-rubber conditioning rolls are standard on DC92, DC102 and DC132
Rugged steel-on-steel rolls are standard on DC162, optional on DC102 and DC132
Easily handle higher crop volume and faster ground speeds
No-tools crank adjustment
Changing conditioning roll pressure is quick and easy for greater productivity
The system releases pressure when the upper roll reaches its maximum opening
Flail Conditioning

Now available with all models.
Uses tapered flails to pick up crop and rub it together and against the conditioning hood
Faster drydown because the waxy layer on the stems is removed and moisture is released quickly
Straight flails release crop more easily than competitive systems
Produce a more uniform crop mat that lays on top of the stubble
Results in better air circulation in the windrow and more thorough drying
