the quilt in 1863 during one of

Fluff 3 windrows
You'll cover acres fast, and bale or chop sooner with the Model 169 tedder. It uses
six rotors to ted a wide 22'8" area. That’s wide enough to fluff three windrows from a
9' mower-conditioner. Yet transport width is a narrow 9’B" for easy maneuvering. The
frame of the "169" is fully articulated, so it hugs the ground to fluff all of your crop for
fast drying. And the Digidrive® coupling provides smooth, reliable operation
Beat the weather with the Model 169
