Here's how the Hesston
cylinder with Flo-vanes
gives you more
forage on
less fuel.
Fio-vanes
increase
capacity
and save
power.
6 Helical
Knives
give clean
cutting and
power
efficiency.
6 knives are enough!
Do more knives cut more forage?
No!Too many knives can actually re
duce capacity, by forming a near solid
“wall of steel” that restricts crop flow.
With Hesston’s 6-knife design,
there’s room between knives to get
more crop in. In fact, to match
Hesston’s capacity most other har
vesters have to have knives removed.
Hesston helical knives slice with
“scissor-action” across the shearbar.
This produces a smooth, uniform cut
7100-Series Pull-Types. Three models for Hesston/Field Queen Self-Propelleds. Three Hesston Forage Boxes. Two sizes offer 14-and
tractors up to 115, 150 or 225-PTO hp. models give giant capacity (diesel engines 16-ft. floors with standard rear tailgate and front
up to 257 hp) and widest selection of crop auger unloading,
headers m the industry.
HESSTON 4
OPTIONAL REBATES or
WAIVER OF FINANCE AVAILABLE
requiring less horsepower and less
fuel than straight knives.
Fewer knives mean less upkeep (see
chart) and less time spent sharpening.
Hesston capacity is increased even
more with exclusive Flo-Vanes. In
field tests, Flo-Vanes have increased
capacity up to 20% *.
So, there’s the Hesston secret for
high capacity harvesting and fuel econ
omy ... 6 “scissor-action” knives plus
Flo-Vanes. More isn’t always better!
* Tests at 7/16” cut length in com without recutter screens.
