Self-propelled windrower
New Holland’s new line of H8000 Speedrower self-propelled windrowers is designed to provide improved power and capacity. Three models range from 126 to 226 hp and feature modular cutterbar technology to help reduce operating costs and downtime.
The high performance disc heads include thinner, lower profile rock guards to allow closer cutting at a flatter cutting angle and an improved design to maintain the straightness of the cutterbar.
Knife options include seven degree knives, 14 degree knives, rock knives and 14 degree serrated knives that are ideal in sandy soil or abrasive conditions. All knives are reversible for longer life.

Special hubs protect the cutterbar gears from shock loads caused by impact with a foreign object. The ShockPRO hubs head off the shock load before it can damage drive components. If the hub shears, it can be replaced in about 15 minutes at minimal cost.

Application controller
Ag Leader recently announced that DirectCommand, the application control feature for its popular InSight display, will now support select models of Hardi trailed field sprayers.
DirectCommand is now compatible with Hardi Commander, Navigator and Ranger series sprayers equipped with a Spray 2 Control Box.
A tee connection at the 39 pin cable is used to connect the DirectCommand system to the flow control components of the sprayer.
The sprayer kit is designed to use the existing Hardi boom switches and fence row nozzles. Optional switch functionality is also supported by the installation kit.
The InSight display with DirectCommand offers AutoSwath, which automatically turns boom sections on or off as the sprayer goes in and out of already applied areas or field boundaries, as well as multiple product and variable rate control.
Another feature generates application reports in a PDF file stored on the memory card. This provides an easy way to get summary and as-applied data.

Tandem disc
Case IH’s True Tandem 330 Turbo is designed to manage crop residue and provide levelling for seedbed preparation.
“Our patented shallow concavity turbo blade design adds a whole new dimension to vertical tillage.
“Mounted on an angle, the blades move soil and residue laterally as well as up and down. The result is more complete soil movement at very shallow running depths, so you don’t have to run it deep to get good soil movement,” said Bill Preller, Case IH crop production marketing director.
The 330 Turbo requires a tractor with pto horsepower of five to seven hp per foot, three hydraulic remote valves and minimum hydraulic pressure of 2200 psi.
It’s available in 25 and 34 foot lengths. For transport, the 25 foot machine folds to a 15 foot nine inch width and 11 foot three inch height. The transport size of the 34 foot machine is 17 feet 10 inches wide and 14-feet three inches high.

Grain vacuum
New air flow technology in the Rem 3700 grain vacuum offers high capacity, especially at long distances from the grain source. The Rem 3700 is rated at 10,000 bushels per hour on full bin load-out and 4,000 to 5,000 bu. per hour with 50 feet of hose.
The new technology uses a multi-stage fan system to boost capacity and reduce noise volume and pitch. An air throttle can be locked in various positions in order to regulate air flow.

Extended boom
A new 120 foot boom option for the Case IH Patriot 4420 self-propelled sprayer increases productivity by allowing applicators to cover more ground in less time.
The truss-style, three section boom is engineered for strength and durability, with few support structures to add weight.
The inner, mid and outer sections of the 120 foot boom are constructed of tube steel. Only the breakaway section is made of aluminum.
The boom features a 44 inch vertical cross section that helps resist vertical loading.
The boom uses a three stage suspension system. Protection from vertical loads comes from the chassis trailing-link wheel suspension. For impact loads, gas-charged accumulators are mounted on the boom height cylinders. Gas- charged accumulators on the boom tilt cylinders help, as well.
An optional automatic boom height control can be added to help maintain proper boom height and reduce metal stress.
