Pivoting headstock

Thanks to the pivoting headstock with ball eye in combination with a linear guide and two standard hydraulic centring cylinders, the machine follows the tractor precisely. Smooth tracking of the rotors is guaranteed without them swaying or overrunning when driving downhill. When the machine is lifted at the headland, the tedder first lowers slightly inside the linear guide (slotted hole), so the two hydraulic centring cylinders can retract as far as they will go, and the tedder gently settles into the central position.



Rigid headstock

The HIT V 4240 ALPIN has a rigid headstock. This places the machine extremely close to the tractor. In addition, its simple design ensures yet another reduction in weight. This further improves performance on steep slopes.
