Hay and forage range extends

• New butterfly mowers and twin rotor rakes expand Massey Ferguson’s hay and forage range

Massey Ferguson has announced it is further expanding its full line of hay and forage equipment with the addition of 12 new, heavy-duty butterfly mowers and 6 new twin rotor rakes.

These new machines also introduce new technology and novel designs to enhance output, ease of use and feed quality.

“With these new additions, Massey Ferguson is demonstrating our commitment to customers, from small farmers to large contractors, by providing the widest possible choice to exactly suit each particular requirement,” says Jérôme Aubrion, Director Marketing Massey Ferguson, Europe & Middle East.

“Developed to deliver optimum performance for large professional farming operations and contractors, the new butterfly mowers introduce many new features, including the most innovative ISOBUS control systems.

“Similarly, the new MF RK twin rotor rakes introduce exclusive features and new technology to meet even the most demanding farmers’ and contractors’ needs,” adds Jerome.

Designed and built for large farmers, professional users and contractors, the MF DM 9614 and MF DM 10114 butterfly mowers are available with a range of features to suit every requirement.

The existing MF DM 8612 TL and MF DM 9614 TL models are still available for those requiring a lighter or a smaller butterfly mower with conditioner.

The new mowers offer working widths up to 9.6m on the MF DM 9614 TL models that are fitted with a 3m wide headstock, while the MF DM 10114 TL, with a 3.5m headstock provides working widths up to 10.1m (for those who don’t need to travel on the road and for countries without road restrictions).

All models are equipped with the latest heavy-duty, spur gear cutterbar, with 14 discs, which have blades positioned at 90° to those adjacent. These cut against a shearbar, which helps provide a superior cut and material flow.
