2025 Kuhn FC D RA Series 13460 D RA

The FC D RA Series mower conditioner/merger combinations are ideal for operators making haylage/baleage, or custom operators looking for a mower conditioner with the added capability of merging in a single pass.

The KUHN FC D RA Series works in combination with the FC 3125 DF or FC 3525 DF front mounted machines allowing operators to cut and condition up to 44' (13.4 m) in one pass, with impressive industry-leading features. This machine incorporates the heavy-duty Optidisc® Elite cutterbar utilizing a through-bolted design and is lubed-for-life. Operators can use the 2-speed DigiDry® finger conditioner and lay the windrow out wide like a standard machine or merge the windrow to the center of the machine with the rear mounted foldable windrow merger system, allowing the operator more diversity in windrow placement.

Features may include:

The Optidisc® Elite cutterbar provides a flat, streamlined profile so that soil and crop residue do not accumulate and material flows smoothly, even in heavy, difficult crop conditions. These mowers come standard with the Fast-Fit® quick release knife system. Optidisc Elite cutterbars are designed and tested with a zero oil change interval. The highly-polished gears and synthetic gear oil ensure that this system does not require any regular internal maintenance, eliminating the need for cutterbar oil changes throughout the life of the machine.

The innovative design of the Optidisc Elite cutterbar offers exclusive differential disc spacing.

• Less Distance for a Clean Cut - Narrower spacing at diverging discs provides greater knife overlap, which results in a clean cut, even when the grass is short or light.

• More Distance for Easy Crop Passage - Wider spacing at converging discs provides more space for the crop to pass. Cut crop is quickly carried away from the cutting area, greatly improving the cut quality.

The Fast-Fit® quick-release knife system allows an operator to rapidly change out cutting knives with the use of a simple tool, yet still retain optimum cut quality and knife life. With Fast-Fit, an operator can achieve up to 50% time savings over a standard system.

Disc bearing stations are attached by bolts that pass through the entire cutterbar. This is an exceptionally strong and secure attachment with no risk of mount being torn out of the cutterbar in case of shocks. The disc drive pinion is held precisely in place, all resulting in excellent reliability and reduced maintenance costs.

Gear-to-Gear Power Transmission

Gear-to-gear power transmission, a staple of all KUHN disc mowers, allows for maximum power to be transferred through all gears in the cutterbar. Unlike other gear cutterbars, equal sized gears throughout reduces torque on the gear teeth and leads to unsurpassed reliability and longevity.

• Protectadrive® Safety: Every minute saved during the hay season is precious. Ultimate protection, from the externally removable Protectadrive disc bearing stations, provides maximum reliability and quick service. In the event of an impact between a disc and an obstacle, the shaft holding the disc can shear just above the bearing. This is thanks to its carefully dimensioned shear groove. As a result, the gear teeth are protected.
