2018 Pottinger HIT with 6 rotors HIT 6.80

Ground tracking and forage protection are the key objectives of HIT rotary tedders. An optional jockey wheel on the pivoting headstock tracks the ground immediately in front of the tine path and responds to each undulation. The result: Clean forage, lower raw ash content and improved livestock health.

The jockey wheel guides the rotors over bumps in the ground. This ensures that the working depth is always set correctly. You are now able to drive faster and can achieve a higher output as a result. The sward is protected and the tines last much longer. The additional jockey wheel is especially recommended for working on slopes.

• The jockey wheel can be mounted in several different positions to the left or right using the pin-in-hole matrix on the headstock.

• The top link connects to the slotted hole on the headstock.

• No tools are required to adjust the height.

• On trailed machines, the jockey wheel is mounted on the drawbar.

Actively setting the wheels at an angle causes the tedder to run diagonally so the forage is directed onto the mown area. Neighbouring crops remain untouched. Because the wheels can be set to the left or right, fenceline tedding can be activated in any driving direction.
