The advantage of our centre-mounted rakes are their uniform and airy swath placement. Our centre-swath rakes guarantee a perfectly matched swath for the subsequent machine in the harvest chain.
TOPTECH PLUS
The large cam tracks on PÖTTINGER rakes offer a cam track diameter of up to 420 mm and a bearing spacing of up to 900 mm on the tine arms. These properties give the tine arms maximum strength with minimum stress on the arm bearings. The cam track can be infinitely-variable adjusted to different forage volumes and changing harvesting conditions. The rotor gears run in a sealed semi-liquid grease gearbox.
Rotor unit encapsulated and dust-tight
No lubrication required. TOPTECH PLUS eliminates leak problems and requires no oil checks or oil changes.
Maximum uptime and durability
TOPTECH PLUS rotors
Optimised for smooth control of cam rollers. No sudden inclines in cam track so control arm follows cam track smoothly. Maintenance-free steel cam rollers; high strength cam shafts and wide spacing of the tine arm bearings guarantee high strength and low stress to the bearings. Additionally; the tine arm bearings are also maintenance-free.
The heavy-duty tine arm cross-section is strong and resistant to twisting and bending. Tidy raking work is provided by 10 to 15 tine arms per rotor; depending on the working width. The tine arms are removable to reduce height for transport and parking.
Service-friendly rotor technology
Tine change
The whole tine arm can be exchanged quickly and easily in the event of any damage. Just undo two bolts to slide the inner tine arm and roller out of the rotor casing.
No problems with oil leaks.
Ready for action again in no time.
Best forage
Raking has a decisive influence at the end of the harvest chain on how clean the forage remains. The tines must not contact the ground; instead they rake the forage carefully out of the sward.
TOP tines deliver millimetre precision
Tines
The tines are positioned straight at the ground directly under the tine arm; without any need for a steep offset angle. Due to the resistance of the forage; they are pressed back slightly but do not rise upwards under load therefore the tines produce exact raking results. These tines do not need to be set so deep as others to rake tidily. This means less stress on the cam track and cam rollers. Resulting in both the sward and forage are both treated with care. The long tines are drawn smoothly out of the swath for a perfect swath shape.
Easy height adjustment
Height adjustment
The working height of TOP rakes can be adjusted from the standing position using a hand crank. This is easily accessible and maintenance-free. A height indicator makes it easy to ensure that both rotors are the same height on twin rotor rakes.
TOP rakes stand for working quality and productivity. Perfect ground tracking is the guarantee for tidy raking work – even in short or heavy wet forage.
The advantage of our centre-swath rakes is their uniform and airy swath placement. Our centre-swath rakes with working widths between 5.90 m and 9.60 m guarantee a swath perfectly matched to the next machine in the harvest operation.
Compact mounting
Mounting
The machine is connected to the tractor by a yoke that enables a steering angle of 73deg. A practical PTO shaft holder and hose tidy are standard equipment for uncluttered parking. A freewheel is integrated into the second PTO shaft on the driveline. With a maintenance interval of 50 hours. The heavy duty frame is designed for the toughest operation conditions.
Maximum manoeuvrability
Thanks to the steered chassis; TOP centre-swath rakes are extremely manoeuvrable. The steering angle indicator is clearly visible from the driver’s seat. A strong steering linkage between the yoke and the axles features maintenance-free steering linkage joints.
Customised axles
Rake with large tyres
A 2.55 m track width is available as an option for especially narrow transport widths.
The chassis is fitted with large 260/70-15.3 tyres.
AS profile tyres are available as an option to make these rakes especially suitable for slopes.
Lights and mudguards are fitted as standard.
We currently hold a stock of TOP 612; 612C and 762 Classic Rakes.
