The new Pöttinger TOP V 6520 C is a compact twin rotor rake without chassis that delivers high maneuverability. It particularly suits farms with consistently high volumes of forage and complex logistics.
Featuring an innovative pivoting headstock, the rake follows the tractor perfectly when cornering and rakes a central swath. The high centering force of the mechanical stabilizer struts on the pivoting headstock allows the machine to run smoothly without swaying from side to side. In addition, the machine is prevented from running forward when driving downhill.
The floating rotor suspension ensures three-dimensional ground tracking. The new Multitast jockey wheel is available as an option. This is mounted directly on the headstock, allowing the rake to glide over any bumps in the ground. Equipped with these features, the rake works neatly to ensure a low crude ash content and high forage quality. The tandem axles compensate perfectly for uneven ground. This results in very smooth running, even at high speeds.
At the headland, the machine is lifted by the tractor linkage and gently moved into the center position. The high ground clearance of the TOP V 6520 C makes headland turns easier and prevents disruption of the already-formed swaths. The TOP V 6520 C is also compact during transport with its center of gravity close to the tractor.
