Kuhn announces the arrival of its new GMD 1021 F series front mowers

Compact front mowers move up a level with the arrival of the GMD 1021 F series. They are available in 2 working widths with the GMD 2721 F and GMD 3121 F versions. Their compact size and low weight make them particularly well suited to working on sloping ground or in very hilly areas.

Mowing slopes of more than 30°
The GMD 1021 F series is ideally suited to mountain farms with slope tractors. It has been seen easily mowing terrain with slopes of more than 30% with impressive control of ground following.

Several factors explain this:
- Its compact size and reduced weight (from 575 kg).
- Its high-performance weight relief system, which limits ground pressure (2 springs or suspension integrated into the tractor linkage).
- Its pendular articulation, which reaches an amplitude of +/-8°.

Equipped with the maintenance-free OPTIDISC cutterbar
Mowing is carried out by the OPTIDISC cutterbar. It is renowned for its robustness and requires no maintenance. It also features the latest improvements in this area (maximum overlap, low cutting angle). Also included, as on every OPTIDISC cutterbar, are the PROTECTADRIVE safety system in case of obstacles, the FAST-FIT quick blade fastening and the silent-block mounting.

Mowing is clean and even, even on hilly terrain. The design of the discs has been specially developed to promote the flow of forage away from the mowing unit. Their converging direction of rotation promotes the transfer of forage towards the centre of the machine as well as the formation of a narrow windrow.

To prevent damage when mowing at the edge of a field or along a tree, the FLEXPROTECT outer protector deforms and then returns to its original shape. It thus avoids additional repair costs.

Finally, the user benefits from enhanced ergonomics: a mobile blade box makes blade replacement easier. Removal, hitching and cleaning of the machine are easy and combine perfectly with the machine's modern styling.
