NEW DISCBINE® CENTER-PIVOT DISC MOWER-CONDITIONERS

YOUR CHOICE OF W I D E CONDITIONING SYSTEMS
 
NEW WIDEDRY™ CONDITIONING
New Holland’s new best-in-class WideDry™ conditioning system features chevron design intermeshing rubber rolls, chevron steel intermeshing rolls or LeaningEdge™ flails that are more than 22% wider than the rolls/flails on previous models. This results in a crop mat that is thinner and flows more smoothly and evenly through the conditioning system for more uniform conditioning and faster drydown. Crop converges more smoothly from the cutterbar to the conditioning system, reducing crop feeding issues, particularly in thick grasses, cane and other high-volume crops.
 
NEW TWO-SPEED ROLL CONDITIONING
Roll conditioning systems generate air movement that can blow lighter crop away from the cutterbar and adversely affect cutting quality. For better cut quality, you can switch the sheaves on the roll drive provided with the rubber chevron rolls or steel intermeshing rolls, and slow roll speed from 750 rpm to 640 rpm. This feature allows the roll speed to be decreased to minimize air bursts while maintaining cutterbar speed to provide excellent cut quality in light crop conditions.
 
LEANINGEDGE™ FLAIL CONDITIONING
For fast drying of grass hay, choose New Holland flail conditioning. The 20-degree tangent of LeaningEdge™ flails causes more outward pressure, pushing crop against the adjustable hood for more aggressive conditioning, and releasing at the ideal moment to prevent carry-around for uniform, fast-drying swaths or windrows. A slow-speed kit is also available for the LeaningEdge Flail conditioning system.
 
CLOSER CUTTING, FASTER DRYDOWN, INCREASED DURABILITY
New Holland has taken the Discbine® mower-conditioner to a new level with two new center-pivot models. Combining both speed and performance, the new models enhance the entire Discbine® line with a new 13-foot and 16-foot 3-inch Disc Mower Conditioner. The new Discbine® 313 and Discbine® 316 are designed with increased durability and features that lead to cleaner cutting, more efficient crop flow and smoother, more effective conditioning.
 
NEW MOWMAX™ II LARGE DISC CUTTERBAR
The rugged MowMax™ II cutterbar features larger discs with larger, heavier gears, bearings and interconnecting shafts for maximum durability. This design has larger gears and one pair of wet splines to provide extra protection where the torque throughput is the greatest. The larger disc diameter also allows you to cut closer with less cutterbar tilt for consistent cutting height without scalloping—from ¾ to 2¾ inches with standard skid shoes. The increased surface area of the larger discs and the new “tapered skirt” disc profile provide a smoother transition of crop to the conditioner for more uniform conditioning action and reduced power consumption.
 
SHOCKPRO™ PROTECTION
Unexpected objects/obstructions in hayfields are a fact of life, particularly for custom operators. New Holland-exclusive ShockPRO™ disc drive hubs absorb the impacts caused by hitting those objects before damage to drive components can occur and are quick to replace in the field so you can keep cutting when the weather is right. Heavy, full-coverage, cast rock guards provide additional protection to the MowMax II cutterbar.
 
NEW IMPROVED CROP FLOW
The larger discs and wider conditioning system combine to provide cleaner cutting, better crop flow and more consistent drying. You can lay down a wide swath for more sun exposure and better natural drying. Co-rotating disc modules have been eliminated on the Discbine 313 and reduced to one pair on each end of the Discbine 316. This greatly reduces the crop convergence between the cutterbar and the conditioner. Adjustable windrow shields and a new spring-assist swathgate adjustment lever make it easy to customize windrow and swath formation.
 
NEW SIMPLIFIED DURABLE DRIVELINES
Choose either the drawbar swivel hitch or 2-point swivel hitch and get maximum turning performance with zero driveline wrap-up. PTO power is transferred from the front swivel gearbox to a second swivel gearbox at the rear of the tongue that maintains perfect alignment of the output driveshaft to the cutterbar- and conditioner-drive gearbox on the left side of the unit. The new MowMax II cutterbar’s smart design allows driving the cutterbar from only one end, which simplifies maintenance and leaves the top of the header uncluttered. While all u-joints are easily accessible for easy servicing, lube interval has been extended to 50 hours so you spend less time on daily maintenance.
 
NEW IMPROVED FLOTATION
Improved header attaching link geometry contributes to more responsive flotation. The rear pivot points of the links that attach the header to the trail frame are lower than the front pivot points, ensuring the header moves up and rearward should you encounter an obstacle. In addition, the upper end of the flotation springs are anchored with a ball-and-socket arrangement that eliminates any binding as the header moves through its flotation range.
 
3-YEAR WARRANTY PROTECTION
You not only get the best disc cutting performance in the industry, you get peace of mind with 36 months of protection coverage. That’s two years of additional protection on the MowMax II cutterbar after the base one-year warranty on the full machine. It’s a New Holland exclusive.

NEW BIOMASS KIT
For working in energy crops like cane, switchgrass or corn stover, order the biomass kit. It includes extra-high skid shoes for the increased cut height and longer stubble desired in these crops. Lift lock out channels stop the cylinders mid-stroke to maintain good flotation, even when cutting well off of the ground. A separate pushbar kit is available to push tall crops forward and maintain cut quality.
 
A WIDE SELECTION OF SKID SHOES
New Holland provides you with a choice of skid shoes to match your cutting needs.
 
REPLACEMENT KNIVES TO MATCH FIELD CONDITIONS
The Discbine 313/316 can be equipped with a choice of six different cutterbar knives, depending on crop conditions and soil types. All knives feature two cutting edges, are available from the parts department, and can be flipped for double the cutting life.
• 14-degree smooth knives are standard on the Discbine® MowMax™ II cutterbar and provide the best choice and value for most conditions.
• 14-degree serrated knives offer the same advantages as 14-degree smooth knives, with extended wear in abrasive conditions.
• 18-degree smooth knives are more effective in down crop conditions by providing more crop lift.
• 18-degree serrated knives offer the same advantages in down crops as the 18-degree smooth knives, with extended wear in abrasive conditions.
• 7-degree smooth knives offer clean cutting with less ash content, and will reduce crop blow down in light or short crops.
• Rock knives are designed for durability in rocky/stony conditions.
 
Skid Shoe Types Cutting Height, inches
Fixed Height (standard) ¾ - 2 ¾ inches
Adjustable option ¾ - 5 ¾ inches
High-Stubble option 3 – 5 ½ inches
BioMass option (extra-high) 5 – 7 ¾ inches
 
NEW EASIER ACCESS
Lightweight poly bifold shields provide easy access to the cutterbar and resist denting. Material overlap keeps curtains in place without the need for clips or magnets. The driven end access steel door is double layered to resist denting in that area too. Safety begins with a thorough understanding of the equipment. Always make sure you and your operators read the Operator’s Manual before using the equipment. Pay close attention to all safety and operating decals and never operate machinery without all shields, protective devices and structures in place.
