Most combine headers perform well in perfect harvest conditions, but when was the last time you had perfect conditions? MacDon FlexDraper® and Draper Headers are designed to maximize productivity in the toughest harvesting situations.
Imitated but never duplicated
Featuring MacDon Flex-Float Technology®, FD1 Series FlexDrapers continue to advance harvesting innovation. The flex advantage comes from a fixed reel-to-cutterbar relationship, which maintains a small gap between the reel fingers and cutterbar, while the Active Float System allows for instant lateral and vertical float response over rolling and uneven terrain. The result of our Flex-Float Technology is smooth, consistent, heads-first feeding that significantly boosts combine productivity.
WHAT IT IS/DOES
The upper cross auger attaches in front of the backtube and improves crop feeding into the center of the header in heavy crop conditions. It is ideal for high-volume harvesting of forages, peas, canola, mustard and other tall, bushy, hard to feed crops. It prevents crop from balling up on the drapers and flowing over the backtube.
FEATURES/BENEFITS
•Moves heavy, bushy, high-volume crops to the center of the header for smooth feeding
•Runs the full length of the header on sizes up to 40 feet*
•Twin pitch flighting at the center of the auger aggressively drives crop into the combine
•Features a shut-off valve to disengage the drive when the auger is not required
