Chopper
The two-blade rotary chopper is shaft driven directly from the snapping unit gearbox. All the stalks are chopped immediately after they feed through the snapping rolls.

Chopper gearboxes are sturdily built to ensure trouble-free operation. High-speed knives are reversible for long life.

The chopper can be easily disengaged by the operator if unusual conditions do not require it.

Headers are also available without the chopping feature for producers who require a high quality, value priced corn head.

 

Auger
One of the largest diameter augers in the industry handles high crop volume smoothly and evenly. The center section is factory fitted with extended flighting to handle high volumes of material. The center extended flighting is removable and can be replaced with fingers for positive, even feed to wide combine feeders. Auger is protected by a torque-limiting clutch.

Snapping Rolls
Harvestec’s extra long, aggressive snapping rolls are built extra-tough for longer wear. Hardened bolt-on flutes are replaceable without the cost of replacing the complete roll. Each snapping roll is front supported on re-greaseable needle bearings. Standard vine and grass knives prevent grass, weeds and damp stalks from wrapping.

Gathering Chains and Sprockets
Long life gathering chains are self-adjusting and spring tensioned. Drive and idler sprockets are made from long lasting hardened steel and feature heavy-duty, sealed bearings.

Drive Chains
Heavy-duty drive chains are enclosed in an oil-bath housing, eliminating time-consuming daily maintenance.
Individual Row Unit Clutches
Each row unit is protected from excessive loads by a torque-limiting clutch, which prevents damage to gearboxes and gathering chains.

Heavy Duty Row Unit Gearbox
Rugged snapping unit gearbox with heavy-duty gears and bearings driving the snapping rolls and gathering chains. Built for years of trouble-free harvesting in high yielding corn and tough conditions.

Snouts and Dividers
Snouts and dividers on 20" to 30" models are made from rugged plastic material that resists rusting and impact damage. They open upwards for convenient service access and further folding action reduces width for transport and storage. Their white colour is highly visible in low light and night harvesting conditions.
