The new Hit HT trailed tedders from Pöttinger offer working widths between 8.60m and 17.00m and guarantee maximum output, convenience and efficiency. The low power requirement, thanks to the trailed design that sees no load exerted on the tractor hitch, means even small tractors can deliver an impressive performance in large fields.
The Hit HT 8680, 11100, 13120, and 17160 models guarantee the best spreading quality for all types of forage thanks to the small rotor diameter of 1.42m and the six curved tine arms. With their new design, these high-output tedders are also real eye catchers.
On Hit HT trailed tedders, the rotor chassis guides the tines, while the rotor is supported by the main frame. This means that the inner rotors don’t have to bear any additional weight during operation. The weight is distributed evenly across all the rotor wheels and the working height is consistent across the entire working width.
Because the rotors run at the correct distance to the ground, the sward is protected and the forage remains clean. An easily accessible hand crank provides quick, central height adjustment. A new feature on the Hit HT is that the height can also be adjusted hydraulically from the tractor seat as an option. A clearly visible scale shows the set working height.
On the models with hydraulic rotor height adjustment, the Basic Control electric pre-select system is now standard equipment. With this tool you can pre-select folding into the transport position, height adjustment and fenceline tedding. Only one double-acting spool valve is needed to operate the machine.
For fenceline tedding, the two rotors on the outer right-hand side can be folded backwards hydraulically at an angle of 15 degrees. The two diagonal rotors distribute the forage across the mown area without forming a swath. A strip is left free adjacent to neighbouring fields. The rotors can be adjusted conveniently from the tractor seat using a double-acting hydraulic cylinder.
The Hit HT high-output tedders impress with their proven, unique Liftmatic Plus lifting technology. A single-acting spool valve moves the rotors by motion link into the horizontal position and then raises them. This prevents the tines from scraping the ground. Liftmatic Plus also reduces the weight acting on the tines, further increasing durability and output.
As with all Pöttinger tedders, the innovative and proven Dynatech rotor unit on the new Hit HT ensures clean forage with minimum crude ash ingress, cleanly collected crop, an optimum spread pattern and a clean machine.
