Keltec has designed the KM-300L mower series with productivity and grass quality in mind for agricultural and contractor users. The KM-300L mower series is available in three build configurations – plain disc mower, with conditioner and with conditioner and Keltec’s innovative auger-type grouper – to suit different customer requirements. The Keltec top-pivot design facilitates a more even bed pressure and better contouring across the entire width of the machine. The disc mower bed is supported by a hydraulic ram with an accumulators providing a cushioning effect and allowing the mower bed to effectively contour undulating or uneven ground. Bed pressure is adjustable to suit different ground conditions. To counteract the uneven forces of a large side-mounted implement, Keltec engineers have developed an innovative levelling-bar device to remove the twisting load on the tractors three point linkage. The auger type grouper used on the Keltec KM-300L range is also Keltec’s own design where grass is fed into the top of the auger to provide the best grouping effect, regardless of grass conditions. The compact design of the Keltec auger-type grouper reduces the overall machine weight in comparison to a machine with a conventional belt-type grouper. An important consideration, in a fully mounted three point linkage machine. When not grouping swaths, a hydraulic ram from the tractor opens a hood allowing the crop to be deposited directly behind the mower. Keltec engineers have designed it so that when the hood is opened, a swath former automatically moves into place.
