Five versions of new Claas Disco

With a working width of up to 9.50m, the Claas Disco 9700 is available in five different versions with tine or roller conditioner and swath merging.Combining Max Cut mower beds with quick knife change and Active Float suspension, new developments include the flow-optimised wear skids. First introduced on the Disco 8500, 9300 and 1010 last year, these extend the cut height by 15mm.The new swinging arms on all 9700 models can be hydraulically pivoted outwards by 300mm and inwards by 50mm to adjust the overlap when turning corners and working across slopes. Helping to avoid unmown strips, the swing arm travel can be infinitely adjusted from the cab between 8.80 and 9.50m.When folded into transport position, the arms automatically retract to a height of less than 4.0m. Suitable for tractors of up to 500hp, the 9700C (tine conditioner) Auto Swather and 9700RC (roller conditioner) Auto Swather are specifically developed for lucerne and whole-crop silage, where material is gently crushed by two counter-rotating polyurethane rollers.One or both of the belt units can be folded up hydraulically when working without swath merging.For more up-to-date farming news click here and subscribe now to profi for just £3.99 an issue.
