Pöttinger showed its new Novacat A9 triple-mower combination for the first time in the UK at Lamma 2018. The mower, which has a maximum overall cutting width of 9.18m, shares many of the innovative features first seen on the company’s range-topping Novacat A10 combination.
Cutting is taken care of by the proven Pöttinger-manufactured cutterbar equipped with quick change blades and Tri-Drive gear technology. This unique gear design sees three gear teeth fully engaged to the adjoining gear for maximum power transmission. Even in the heaviest of British crops and conditions, this technology really delivers a clean ground-contoured cut. Excellent even regrowth is ensured, and power requirement and fuel consumption are reduced thanks to this clean-cut technology.
The patented Y Drive gear train offers vibration free PTO shaft drive along with externally mounted slip clutches that can easily be accessed for maintenance.
Available as a plain disc mower, with Extra Dry tine conditioner or RCB rubber roller conditioner, the new Novacat A9 has every base covered for all large farming operations and contractors.
Compact overall dimensions in transport ensure that the mower can be transported safely even on the narrowest of country lanes, and a fully integrated parking stands allow for leaving the mower on site if so required.
A simple in-cab Direct Control controller allows full functionality of the selected operation such as independent mower lift and sequenced transport position folding. Conveniently mounted in cab, this clear LCD display offers the operator precise control.
