The 1345 offers the quality, convenience
and reliability features that Hesston has a
reputation for providing, like a modular spur
gear design, which allows each gear assem
bly and adjacent idler gear to be individually
removed and serviced. Thanks to the gear
to-gear drive, Hesston’s modular design also
offers a lower profile for closer cutting.
Featuring a unique eccentric linkage that
allows the conditioner rolls to temporarily
separate, eject a slug and reset - automati
cally - to save you time and hassle.
