Features

  • Heavy-Duty Construction
    The windrowers feature heavy-duty design, engineering and construction throughout.
  • 280-Horsepower Gearbox
    A standard feature on all Loftness shredder equipment, this field-proven and extremely reliable gearbox is rated at 280 HP. It spins the rotor at 1,450 RPM.
  • Knives
    Windrower shredders are equipped with a reduced number of 4-1/2-inch-wide hard-surface cupped knives. The Windrower’s unique rotor knife pattern is designed to produce increased suction and enhance chop efficiency. Greater suction means you can operate just a bit higher, reducing the risk of striking hidden objects. This helps make the Windrower a perfect preparation tool for baling corn fodder and other kinds of residue.
  • Full-Length Rear Shields
    This unique design from Loftness allows high-speed air and particles to flow freely to the diffuser. They can also be operated in a retracted position for non-windrowing operations.
  • Chop Diffuser
    The grate-like diffuser deflects and directs the final chopped residue toward the ground. Combined with the rear shields, this system creates cleaner rows than those made by rakes.
  • Rear Lift
    The Windrower offers precise height adjustment for fine-tuning performance and chop. Rear lifting choices include three ratchets or three hydraulic lift units.
  • 4-Groove Banded Belt
    Efficient transfer of power via a four-groove banded belt and spring loaded push-type idler system.
  • 1,000 RPM PTO
    1-3/8-inch or 1-3/4-inch 1,000 RPM power takeoff. Includes over-running clutch and constant velocity knuckle.
  • Pull-Type Hitch
  • Various Wheel Options
