Features

The most options to fit your operation

Case IH continues the tradition of giving you the most options to fit your operation. You can choose among three models.

RD163

Cutting width — 16 ft. 1 in. (4.9 m)
Compatible — WD1903 and WD2303
        Rubber-on-rubber conditioning rolls
        Steel-on-steel conditioning rolls
        Flail conditioner (For grass like crops)
        Hi-contact rolls for legume-type crops in low-humidity climates
        Conditioning rolls are mounted in "modules" that are easily removed and exchanged to suit different crops and conditions throughout the season
Complete removal of the conditioning roll module allows for cutting without conditioning, if desired

RD193

Perfect for large-scale commercial growers — delivers unbeatable speed
Industry-leading cutting width — 19.3 ft. (5.9 m)
Compatible — WD2303
Full-length auger eliminates the need for co-rotating discs and increases cutoff performance

Rugged, independent disc modules offer many advantages:

Easy service , repair or replacement
Individually sealed bearings , gears and lubricant – damage or contamination to one disc doesn't spread to another
Complete gear lubrication , even when cutting on slopes or at an angle
Austempered discs for extra hardness and durability in punishing conditions
A protective liner in the hood helps reduce rock damage
Heavy-duty gears and cross shafts

Standard on all rotary disc header models

Includes:

Protects key disc module drive components when a disc encounters a field obstacle
Easier in-field repairs
Dramatically reduces downtime
Lower replacement-part cost

heavy-duty knives

Two knives on each disc feature:

One-bolt knives that are reversible for twice the cutting life
A knife speed of 187 mph (301 kph)
A cutterbar angle that adjusts hydraulically from 2–10 degrees below horizontal using the in-cab switch

intermeshing, spiral, rubber-on-rubber, steel-on-steel or Hi-Contact conditioning rolls or flail

Rugged construction

RD163 and RD193 — equipped with intermeshing, spiral, rubber-on-rubber, steel-on-steel or Hi-Contact conditioning rolls or flail
Conditioning rolls provide 102-in. (2.6-m)-wide superior crimping action
Results in faster drydown in both light and heavy crops
Rugged construction allows rolls to process both higher crop volume and faster ground speeds typical of a rotary disc header
Chevron conditioning rolls evenly distribute the crop across the whole windrow, eliminating more material on the sides of the windrow
