Hibiscus CD Vario, Lely's new range of twin-rotor rakes

Twin-rotor rakes are now the preferred choice of farmers and agricultural contractors.

This market is growing exponentially, and it is with this in mind that the Lely Hibiscus range is being strengthened with 4 new models of centre-delivery twin-rotor rakes: the Hibiscus 715 CD, the Hibiscus 745 CD Vario, the Hibiscus 815 CD Vario and the Hibiscus 915 CD Vario (note that the width of the Lely Hibiscus 715 CD is mechanically adjustable).

The Lely Hibiscus CD Vario centre-delivery twin-rotor rakes are designed to optimise baling and the formation of future round bales by working at large working widths and forming windrows that are easy to pick up.
Vary your windrow hydraulically with the Lely Hibiscus CD Vario

The Lely Hibiscus CD Vario is a true revolution in the range of centre-delivery twin-rotor rakes. It allows the working width to be adjusted hydraulically.

This range comes in four models corresponding to different working widths: Lely Hibiscus 715 CD, Lely Hibiscus 745 CD Vario, Lely Hibiscus 815 CD Vario and Lely Hibiscus 915 CD Vario.

These four models, which stand out for their more robust construction, replace the previous versions. The headstock has been reinforced, as have the connections between the frame and the rotors. The same applies to the "A"-shaped rear frame.

In addition, the ability to adjust the working width hydraulically from the cab via the double-acting valve gives the user additional working flexibility.

Furthermore, the Lely Hibiscus rakes retain the RO tine principle. These tines are deliberately curved in order to lift the forage and avoid contaminating the windrow with impurities. The cam track can be modified and the working height is adjustable on the wheels under the rotor and by crank.

Although these models work at a large working width, the Hibiscus CD Vario are said to be manoeuvrable thanks to the compactness of the machine and the steering rear axle.
