3.3- Functioning

HARVESTING:
The harvester is coupled to the tractor via the three-point hydraulic lift system
and driven by the power take-off.
As the machine advances on the planting line, the discs knives of the front
feeding drum cut the plants, harvesting two rows simultaneously.
The harvested plants are pulled by two front feeding drums and compacted by
two rear rollers, one articulated to maintain a continuous and uniform feeding.
PROCESSING:
The harvested plants are led by the rollers against the rotor, whose knives
simultaneously chopp and launch the forage through the outlet chute.
The chop size is defined by the number of rotor knives and/or by the speed of
the feeding drums. The cut size is changed by exchanging a pair of gears of
the transmission that move the feeding drums.
DISCHARGE:
The forage launched by the rotors is driven through a outlet chute and directed
by a deflector (jet breaker) into a forage wagon that travels coupled to the
harvester.

3.4- Required Tractor

The choice of tractor must take into account the hydraulic system lifting capacity
and the power required by the machine. It is recommended to use a category 2
tractor, with power from 80 to 120 hp in the power take-off (540 rpm), double
clutch with independent drive (PTO and engine).
The correct ratio between tractor size and machine weight ensures safety
during braking and maneuvering. The load lifted must not exceed the maximum
authorized load indicated in the tractor manual used (see machine weight under
'Technical Characteristics').
