Kuhn GMD Premium Series 310

KUHN GMD Premium Series mounted disc mowers, with working widths from 7’10” to 10’2”, offer increased durability, more features and simpler operation.

The best-selling hay mowers in the world are renewed with the KUHN GMD Premium Series mounted disc mowers. Replacing the highly popular 100 Series HD machines, these mowers provide increased durability, enhanced features and a cleaner look for years of low maintenance hay production. The rugged 100 Series cutterbar provides a clean cut. Its flat angle helps keep dirt and other contaminants out of the crop while increasing knife life. An optional hydraulic pivot system eliminates the need to get off the tractor when transitioning between field and transport. A Fast-Fit® quick-change system can be installed to speed up knife changes. A more ergonomic, sleek design reduces clutter while simplifying operation. Cut clean, cut with KUHN.

Features may include:

• Due to the high reliability, excellent crop cutting, and overall adaptability to varying terrains, the 100 Series cutterbar is a staple in the Premium Series. See for yourself by taking a closer look at what the 100 Series cutterbar has to offer.

• These discs offer a service life that outmatch all other discs on the market and are adapted to intensive mowing conditions. The GMD Premium Series mowers are equipped with heavy-duty discs, as standard. Beveled knives are standard and ribbed knives are optional.

• The Premium Series comes standard with an outside swath wheel. The swath wheel improves crop flow by providing more positive engagement of crop to leave the cutterbar, especially in taller crops.

• Every minute saved during the hay season is precious. Ultimate protection, from the externally removable Protectadrive disc bearing stations, provides maximum reliability and quick service. In the event of an impact between a disc and an obstacle, the shaft holding the disc can shear just above the bearing. This is thanks to its carefully dimensioned shear groove. As a result, the gear teeth are protected.

• Belt tensioning is semi-automatic and the adjustment is done with the same tool. The easy to adjust system keeps the proper tension on the belts to increase belt life. This tool is also used for opening the cover and changing the blades.

• The GMD Premium Series can be pivoted hydraulically into the transport position via an optional pivot cylinder. This means that changing from work to transport mode has never been easier. You will especially appreciate the time saved when working in small fields.

• Should an obstacle be struck, the safety breakaway causes the mower unit to swing slightly backwards. The impact is significantly reduced. You can reset the device by simply reversing.

• Flotation of the cutterbar is adjusted by spring tension. A heavier compensating spring ensures optimum ground pressure through a wide range of terrain and contours. Through the design of the mowing unit articulation, mowing of banks and terraces is possible at a tilt angle of up to 35° and down to -25°, depending on the model. Adjustment can easily be done with the provided tool.

• To limit the mowing unit lift in headland turn position, a hydraulic shut-off valve is used. This enables smoother operating and increased structure life.
