The new TC 1370 four-rotor centre delivery rake makes its appearance in a new styling and with plenty of landmark features including convenient setting options that make the job a lot easier for operators and produce optimum swaths at high outputs.

The swath width is adjusted irrespective of the work width by varying the distance between the two rear rotors between 1.40 m and 2.20 m. As another key feature, the tine arms on the rear rotors have five double tines which optimize the work and quality for the following harvester.

The operator controls the work height from the terminal so there is no need to dismount the tractor. You can either adjust all rotors at the same time or each rotor separately. Also, you can program two different heights to the system and retrieve them later by fingertip control – a convenient and effective system that helps you respond instantly to varying conditions.

The transport wheels of the rake are clad with 620/40 R 22.5 tyres and have air brakes as a standard feature. But you can also opt for hydraulic brakes and wider 710/35 R 22.5 tyres to improve the performance in boggy terrain. Neither tyre size affects the statutory three-metre transport width. Either configuration is homologated for 40 km/h.

The KRONE Easy-Line driveline is the secret behind the optimal flow of the crop through the rake. This driveline has the leading rotors spin at a 25% higher speed than the rotors at the rear, presenting the material at a wider width to the rear rotors which will then rake it into a fluffy and box swath.

You can set and retrieve separate lift-out heights for the leading and rear rotors from the tractor terminal. But not only does the system allow you to set the lift-out height but also to time the sequences depending on conditions.

The new and trapezoidal frame is made from massive steel tubes that make the TC a high-stability and hard-wearing machine. The elements on the sides are mounted at an angle so they won’t collect material.

The two-piece plastic cover on the beamhouses the electronics, the hydraulic chest and the spools protecting them from debris and damage.
