Header Equipment : Rigid Platform Overview
600 Series Rigid Platforms have
  • 4 inch double-cut knife design doubles the cutting surface, increasing cutting capacity without increasing cutterbar speed.
  • Heavy duty knife drives have a long 3.5 inch stroke, delivering plug-free cutting in tough conditions.
  • Stainless steel deck plates make for a smooth transition from cutterbar to auger.
  • Full-fingered auger design with one-inch longer fingers aggressive pulls crop in.

 
The 26 inch diameter auger along with 5 inch flighting and longer in-line fingers run the full length of the auger result in smoother, higher volume crop feeding at faster ground speeds.

The stone dam
 

A stone dam deflects rocks before they get to the auger and assists in holding material on the platform.

 

Header Height Sensing maintains a consistent cutting height (adjustable from 4 to 14 inches) over uneven ground.
