Operate In heavy hay or sudax a gear faster. Full-width conditioning rolls
eliminate dead spots that waste power. And you'll find there's no powerless
due to side draft on hillsides or on the level.
You get increased capacity because larger diameter 44-inch reel is less
affected by changing crop conditions. And, the unique position of the reel
bats holds the crop flat so it feeds through the conditioning rolls, without
hesitation. What’s more, controlled platform float and self-compensating
roll pressure lets you move from field to field, crop to crop and rarely ever
readjust the 990.
