CM 268-298-338<br />
Mounted <strong>mowers</strong><br />
ready for action<br />
The Vicon CM 268, CM 298 and<br />
CM 338 are proof that drum <strong>mowers</strong><br />
certainly don’t have to be heavier<br />
than disc <strong>mowers</strong> with a comparable<br />
mowing width. The CM 268, CM 298<br />
and CM 338 only weigh 645, 745 kg<br />
and 810 kg respectively. Already<br />
more than 12.000 CM 268 units have<br />
been sold all over the world. The<br />
unique combination of two large outer<br />
drums and two small inner drums<br />
results in the fastest possible crop<br />
transport. In addition, the CM 268<br />
requires relatively little tractor<br />
power so it can also be used behind<br />
light tractors without front lift.<br />
The CM 298 sets the new standard in the field<br />
of capacity, service life and mowing quality.<br />
With a mowing width of 2.95 m and the<br />
characteristic double swath, the CM 298 is<br />
the ideal team mate for baler or forage wagon.<br />
The two large outer drums and two small<br />
inner drums result in an easy crop transfer<br />
and minimum tractor power requirements.<br />
With a mowing width of 3.30 m and four large<br />
equal size drums the CM 338 offers high<br />
capacity at minimum power requirements.<br />
A new head stock and sub frame enables<br />
working with bigger tractors and combinations<br />
with every kind of front mounted <strong>mowers</strong>.<br />
The patented quick blade exchange system<br />
has been adopted from the CMP series.<br />
Perfect weight distribution<br />
The large compensation springs effectively<br />
transfer a substantial part of the mower weight<br />
to the tractor. In combination with the freely<br />
rotating saucers that prevents swath damage.<br />
Transport<br />
You don’t have to leave the tractor seat to<br />
simply swing the CM 268, CM 298 and<br />
CM 338 drum <strong>mowers</strong> to transport position<br />
straight behind the tractor. A hydraulic cylinder<br />
is optionally available to fold up the machine<br />
next to or behind the tractor. The weight<br />
remains as closely as possible to the tractor<br />
so the tractor manoeuvrability is hardly or not<br />
affected.
