OverviewTrailed tedder XT 1030-8 is an agricultural tedder designed to maximise field productivity and preserve forage quality. With a 10.3 m working width the machine covers large areas quickly. Independently oscillating rotors, adjustable incidence angle and mechanical tine-height regulation allow precise adaptation to ground contours and different crop conditions, producing an even spread and protecting swaths for efficient windrowing and harvesting.
Hydraulics and operationThe intuitive hydraulic system offers precise control for folding and deployment. Rotor folding and unfolding are operated from the tractor hydraulic distributor to reduce transport height. The hydraulic circuit includes both double-acting and single-acting lines to simplify transitions between work and transport modes.
Key functional features- Independent rotor oscillation maintains constant contact with the crop for uniform distribution across the working width.
- Hydraulic rotor folding from the tractor reduces transport dimensions for safe road travel.
- Swath passage function lifts all rotors simultaneously to speed end-of-field maneuvers and avoid impurities.
- Mechanical tine height adjustment via crank provides millimetric precision to suit ground conditions and forage type.
- Two central rotors with twin wheels increase ground support and stabilise weight distribution.
- Pre-set incidence angle positions adapt the machine to different crop and field conditions.
- Transport trolley wheels act as feeler wheels, guiding tines to actively follow terrain contours.
