Speed, precision, power - these are the main features of the MacDon swather mower M1170 and the R1 rotary mower. Our patented CrossFlex ™ independent suspension and the flat, front-mounted rotor blades achieve a smooth, clean cut even when driving quickly at speeds of up to 29 km / h (18 mph). CLEAN CUT & 3 YEAR WARRANTY Our low-profile, forward-mounted cutting discs provide a flat header angle, resulting in a cleaner, smoother cut. Our cutterbar design is backed by MacDon’s 3 year cutterbar warranty. That’s our way of ensuring worry-free harvesting performance. FRONT ROW SEAT TO PRODUCTIVITY The R1 features an amazing in-cab view of the crop flow coming out of the back of the header. Being able to see the crop lets operators monitor the quality of the windrow that’s being laid down on-the-go. The header forward position also allows easy access to the adjustable windrow forming shields. OVERLOAD PROTECTION Each of the disc spindles on the R1 Series cutterbar feature a shear pin. These pins are designed to shear if the disc comes in contact with any object large enough to stop its movement. The disc then moves up and out of the path of the adjacent discs, reducing the risk of serious damage to the cutterbar. The shear pin can be replaced in-field, letting operators get back to cutting quickly.
