CHICAGO The rugged
durability and dependability of
International Harvester’s field
proven 1190 mower-conditioner is
now available in 12- and 14-foot
sizes with the introduction of the
new 1490 and 1590 models for 1984.
•These new mower conditioners
with hydraulic center pivot
tongues, are designed for trouble
free, dependable performance on
either level or rolling terrain due to
their lateral and vertical header
flotation system.
Over-the-top carrier frame
construction suspends the con

smoothing header movement and
keeping it from binding, In

while cutting in hilly fields, ver
tical flotation is still maintained.
Mated with the floating header is
a reliable oil bath knife drive
system that develops 800 cycles
per minute. Double-forged steel
guards resist breakage and assure
proper alignment for optimum
cutting potential.
John Buse, product manager for
International Harvester, says an
overshot auger system is an in
tegral factor in the new models’
design. The system ensures
lighter, fluffier windrows and
decreases crop damage.
“The overshot auger requires
less horsepower to operate than
typical undershot systems, thus
improving fuel economy,” Buse
says. “Both models require only 60
horsepower to operate and can be
run smoothly at speeds up to seven
miles per hour under normal field
conditions.”
Both models feature a 540 rpm
PTO driven hydraulic pump and
motor which powers the sickle bar,
conditioning rolls, reel, and

overshot auger systems. “This
system eliminates driveline
chatter,” Buse says.
Valuable field time is saved by
the wider equipment. The center
pivot tongue allows the operator to
pivot the hitch from the right to left
side of the unit without leaving the
control center. Such movement
allows the operator to cut long
r6ws of the same side of a field, as
can be done with a self-propelled
unit.
The center pivot tongue also
allows better movement over
roadways, at speeds up to 20 mph,
with a transport width of 166 and
190 inches, respectively. Weight is
4,600 pounds for the model 1490 and
4,900 pounds for the 1590 model.
Buse says an adjustable push
over bar assures top cutting
performance in crops of all sizes.

conditioning rolls automatically
adjust roll pressure depending
upon amount of crop being fed
through the conditioner. The
hydraulically controlled rolls allow
slugs to be cleared easily while the
operator stays in the tractor
control center.
The conditioning rolls (106 inch)
are precision machines and

maintenance and trouble-free,
long-term operation. Wear

systems that use molded rubber

CALL US FOR INFORMATION
Lancaster Farming, Saturday, July 14,1954—D9
MD. has introduced a portable
analytical laboratory (PAL) for
poultry water.
This completely portable
laboratory utilizes a battery
powered colorimetric analytical
procedure to provide the user with
a fast highly accurate, quan
titative analysis of poultry
drinking water.
The PAL has the capacity to
analyze for nitrates, nitrites,
phosphorus, fluoride, Ph, sulfate,
iron, turbidity, (Jackson turbidity
units) and total hardness.
The entire series of nine tests
only takes a few minutes to run and
costs less than 40 cents per test.
The Papillon poultry water PAL
has been specifically designed to
allow poultry producers to
regularly monitor their source of
water and to quickly identify
potential problems before
significant damage is done.
