Centre delivery rotary rakes Swadro TC

• Gauge wheels on high flotation tyres run very close to the tines
• The largest wheelbase on the market
• Adjuster changes the rotor angle across the direction of travel for optimum swaths and loss-free rakes.
• Caster steer wheels at front and rear (option) protect the sward

The wheels under the KRONE Swadro rotors never lose contact with the ground, not even the roughest terrain. The largest possible contact area and pivoting range in combination with suitable tyres ensures no blade is left on the sward and the sward is not damaged. Clean and intact swards are the cornerstone for top quality forage also from the next cut.

The guide wheels on the bogies run very close to the tines for effective guidance and contouring. As the wheels cover a large surface area, the tines pick up every single blade without contacting the sward. In addition, every model has individual setting options that help adjust the bogies to the specific conditions. The leading wheels are castering. High flotation tyres are options for soft and boggy terrain and two extra wheels are available for each rotor for work in very rough pastures.

An optimum rotor tilt across the direction of travel translates into minimal losses and boxy swaths. All Swadro rotors tilt as a standard feature. The lateral tilt controls the position of the tines relative to the ground and is set on the rear wheels of each rotor. In fact, the rotor should tilt slightly towards the swath in order to balance out the load the material puts on the tines. KRONE recommends a 1-2 cm tilt toward the swath.
