Kuhn not only invented the disc cutterbar but also pioneered the Disc Mower Conditioner. Whether you are cutting and conditioning grass or alfalfa, Kuhn offers many models to meet your cutting and conditioning needs. Since the introduction of the FingerComb conditioning system 25 years ago, Kuhn has provided farmers with crop conditioning systems that offer versatility and ease of adjustment necessary to match ever-changing field conditions. Another key feature on all of Kuhn’s FC Disc Mower Conditioners is the advanced suspension systems. With today’s increased harvesting speeds, minimum tillage techniques and field conditions, the demands on a Mower Conditioner’s suspension system can be extreme.
