The machine is produced in two versions with working width of 1.2 and 1.5 m, so that the potential buyers will not have trouble in matching the machine to the technology of sowing onion used at their farms. The cutter consists of a frame to which are attached three ground hugging wheels, mechanical transmission and a set of mowing three heads. Particularly noteworthy is the fact that the machine has been designed in such a way that it is possible to mount it on the front and rear three point hitch suspension system of the cooperating tractor. Drive of the mowing heads is provided by the PTO and the mowing height is adjusted hydraulically from the tractor cabin. The operator has got the possibility of setting independent mowing height adjustment for the left and the right side of the machine in the range of 0 to 40 cm, so setting of the cutting knives to the rough terrain can be even more accurate.
