2.75 M (9’) WIDE ROAD FRIENDLY TRANSPORT (OPTIONAL)

Our Road-Friendly TransportTM option is available on both models and transforms the R1 into a road-friendly 2.75 m (9’) wide transport. Switch from field to transport in 30 seconds, for quick and safe travel to, from, and between fields. Moving from a 3 m (10’) to a 4.9 m (16’) mower can increase productivity by 60%, making this option ideal for operations in which transport width restrictions are a limiting factor.

UNIQUE RESPONSIVE FLOAT

Using minimal ground pressure, our Responsive Float System moves the R1 “Up and Back” as it encounters bumps in the field. This unique movement results in true, even ground following and helps ensure a clean, smooth cut.

LOW HORSEPOWER REQUIREMENTS

Requires only 100 horsepower for 4 m (13’) and 125 horsepower for 4.9 m (16’) model. Available with either 1000 RMP PTO 35 mm (1 3/8”), 21 spline or 45 mm (1 3/4”), 20 spline PTO drive shaft options. Less horsepower means lower fuel consumption.

OVERLOAD PROTECTION

Each of the discs on the R1 Series cutterbar features two shear pins. These pins are designed to shear if the disc comes into contact with any object that is large enough to stop its movement. The disc then moves up and out of the path of the obstruction, preventing any serious damage to the cutterbar. The shear pins can be replaced in-field, allowing operators to quickly get back to cutting.

CLEAN CUT

Our low-profile, forward-mounted cutting discs provide a flat header angle, resulting in a

cleaner, smoother cut. Our new cutterbar design is backed by MacDon’s 3-Year cutterbar warranty. That’s just our way of ensuring worry free harvesting performance.

SERIOUS CONDITIONING

Featuring the industry’s widest conditioning roll at 328 cm (129”), and 4 interchangeable

conditioning options. Choose from Steel Inter-Meshing, Polyurethane Inter-Meshing, Finger

Conditioner, or No Conditioner option. The R1 lays down well-formed, well-conditioned wide to

narrow windrows to suit a variety of conditioning needs.
