KWT

• Maintenance-free driveline with eight-finger OctoLink clutch
• Maintenance-free gearboxes liquid-grease lubricated
• Hardwearing Super-C tines
• Special tines for the ­KRONE combing effect for cleanest sweeps
• Setting the angle of throw without tools for optimum forage quality
• ­KRONE border spreading system for accurate spreads up to the field edge
• Large choice of trailed ­KRONE rotary tedders
• High operator comfort: For reduced operator strain on long working

The trailed KTW tedders cover up to 20 metres even when hitched to a lower-powered tractor. Equipped with their own transport chassis, these machines have a lower tractor power and lift power requirement. Multiple technical details make for safe for road travel and ensure great spreading and conditioning quality in the field.

OctoLink

• The maintenance-free eight-finger clutch
• Full drive power in any position

Rotor gearboxes

• Maintenance-free and liquid-grease lubricated
• Permanently lubricated for great longevity

When it comes to preparing wilted silage and hay, KRONE is the manufacturer that offers a large and extensive range of high-quality and dependable rotary tedders. These machines not only deliver high-quality work and feature a high level of standard specification but also boast a host of innovative features including maintenance-free OctoLink clutches and liquid-grease lubricated gearboxes to drive the rotors.

• Sturdy tubular tine arms
• Uniform crop spread as the tine arms overlap generously
• Heavy-duty, hardwearing 9.5 mm Super C double tines with 5 coils
• Unequally long tines give the special KRONE combing effect

Quality requires us to start with the basics. This is how we achieve high standards. The rotors on the KRONE rotary tedders are the ideal equipment to produce quality forage for on-farm use. Whether you’re producing hay or silage, these rotors deliver every time.

• Central border spreading control spreads the crop away from the boundary for easier harvesting.
• The angle of throw is adjusted without tools.
• The castering wheels on the rotors run in close vicinity of the tines to provide accurate control.

Thought-through details and high operator comfort boost the efficiency of your operation. The central border spreading facility ensures you are not wasting a single haulm along the boundaries. In addition, it allows you to spread uphill with the machine running at an angle to the tractor. The rotor tilt is adjusted without the need of tools for perfect adaptation to the current crop and yield.

• 5.50 m to 7.80 m work widths
• Minimum input requirement, no load taken off the tractor’s front axle
• Easy tractor attachment and  removal
• Convenient hydraulic articulated drawbar

The trailed rotary tedders for 5.50 m and 7.80 m widths stand out for their low tractor input requirement. Running on the middle wheels when in transport, the machine does not mount in the tractor's three-point linkage – which is ideal for smaller tractors with lower front axle load and lift capacities.

• 7.8 m -11.0 m work widths
• Sequence control for maximum operator comfort
• Wide transport running gear with large wheels for 40 km/h
• Pivoting running gear enhances weight distribution

The transport running gear makes these rotary tedders ideal for smaller tractors with smaller lift capacities despite their wider working width.

• 13.10 m to 19.60 m working width
• Small rotor diameter produces an optimum spread pattern
• Heavy-duty beams
• Maintenance-free OctoLink rotor drives
• Intelligent steering on KWT 1600 and KWT 2000

Making quality forage not only requires high-capacity mowers but also the right tedder. In terms of work rates, the KWT 1300, KWT 1600 or KWT 2000 is the perfect match for a high-capacity mower combination. It allows you to do the tedding pass in parallel with the mowing pass to achieve uniform wilts.

• Huge 13.10 m work width
• 12 rotors with 6 tine arms each
• Drawbar or three-point linkage attachment
• Automated transport/work changeovers
• Flexible rotor guidance, exact ground contouring

The KRONE KWT 1300 is the tedder for supreme quality forage. Pleasant to operate, the machine teds 13.10 m in one operation. Highly productive, it is yet gentle on the crop and soil but compact and safe in road travel.

• Contouring control independent of the running gear
• Compact on the road and wide in the field
• The manual working height control
• Contouring control independent of the running gear

In road travel, the KWT 1600 and KWT 2000 impress with a narrow transport width of less than 3 m whereas in work they offer a stunning work width of 15.27 m to 19.60 m. The machine also stands out for easy handling and functionality during changeovers, as automatic sequence control reduces driver effort and increases daily outputs.

In some situations the standard machine specification may not produce optimum results. Therefore ­KRONE offers a number of options for our rotary tedders that ensure your machine delivers maximum outputs and top forage quality in special conditions.
