Two new front mowers, the Disco3200 F and FC, have been added to the Claas Disco mower range to replace the popular Disco 3100 Profil.
The mowers have a mowing width of 3.00m and are available either as a straight mower (F) or with a tine conditioner (FC). The new design features an improved safety frame and access to the cutterbar has been made easier to help reduce routine maintenance and make it easier to carry out jobs such as changing the mower blades.
In common with the rest of the Disco mower range, the new Disco 3200F/FC is fitted with a new updated P-Cut mowing bar that’s designed to leave a clean finish and can be used at just 850rpm to help reduce fuel consumption by up to 16 per cent.
A new unique feature that has been developed specifically for the UK and Ireland is the ability to tilt the mower bed forward using an adjustable spring system on the top of the mower. This avoids the need in certain conditions, such as in a laid crop, to have to alter the length of the top link, which can then reduce lift clearance.

The mower bar is fitted with seven mowing discs with two knives per disc. Each disc is protected using the Claas Safety Link system, whereby a defined shear point protects the drive and brings the drive to the disc to an immediate halt in the event of an overload.
To ensure optimum ground contour following, the new Disco 3200F/FC incorporates the well-proven Profil kinematics system that features a three-dimensional guidance system. To leave the best possible finish in undulating conditions the mower bed is pulled from the very low pivot points rather than being pushed across the field.
