D135—MACDON DRAPER HEADERS NEXT LEVEL CROP RECOVERY PERFORMANCEMost combine headers perform well in perfect harvesting conditions, but when was the last time you had perfect conditions? MacDon FlexDraper and Draper Headers are designed to maximize productivity in the most challenging harvesting situations from our Active Float System that keep our headers true-to-the-ground, to the outstanding performance of our reel. Available in sizes up to 13.7m (45'), MacDon combine drapers are built tough to deliver worry-free harvesting performance with any crop, in any condition, and on any combine.ACTIVE FLOAT SYSTEMMacDon's Active Float System react instantly to changing ground conditions this immediate float response mean you can cut extremely close to the ground without pushing. 2 sets of coil springs on the FM100 Float Module support up to 97% of the header weight the instant float response provide 4.8 degrees of lateral float and 7” (178mm) of vertical float independent of the combine feeder house. Best of all this is a simple mechanical system with only one sensor, so things won't break down when your harvest is on the line. MacDon’s Active Float System keeps our headers true-to-the-ground for a clean even cut every time.THE MACDON FEEDMAXMacDon's FeedMaX system is designed to be custom configured to match any combines performance capabilities providing serious capacity optimized feeding and incredible productivity. FeedMaX components are built smart and tough to provide the performance and reliability MacDon is trusted for.CAPACITYThe heart of the FeedMaX crop feeding system is the feed auger featuring combine-tailored speeds, feeding configuration and aggressive action resulting in up to 20% more capacity over the previous model. In-feed speed is tailored to match that of your specific combine's feeder chain. Bolt-on components make it possible to configure the auger flighting and number of finger tines to match the combine's feeder house opening. The finger tines are longer & more aggressive. Altogether, the FeedMaX system works to optimize the performance of any combine in any crop.DURABILITYThe strength and reliability of the FM100 feed auger come from smart innovations & heavy-duty internal components like the tine shaft being 25% thicker than the previous model and an all-new reversing clutch that provides positive engagement in either direction. The new finger design protects both the header and the combine from foreign objects. Reconfigured and upgraded the chain drive tension is externally adjustable and incorporate a positive stop to retain its setting and alignment.HIGH CAPACITY HYDRAULICSMacDon's new hydraulic system features individual fully filtered circuits for the knife drive, side drapers, and feed draper. These individual circuits provide increased side draper speed, along with greater capacity and reliability. The 1 Series hydraulics make it possible for an optional in-cab side draper speed control, allowing on-the-go adjustment.AMAZING REEL PERFORMANCEUnlike other headers, the movement of our heavy-duty reel pick up and gently places crop onto the drapers. The reel feature a uniquely shaped cam which allows the fingers to get underneath lodged crop and pick it up before its cut. Along with the header tilt control which hydraulically angles the knife from the cab, and fore-aft reel positioning, our headers can be adjusted for the toughest harvesting challenges.ACTIVE CROP FLOWMacDon's Active Crop Flow gently places crop on the side drapers heads-first and swiftly moves it onto the feed draper, where it's scooped up into the combine feeder house heads-first feeding promote peak combine efficiency by saving fuel improving threshing action creating a better straw distribution and allowing for a more productive harvest overall. Because this harvesting method is more efficient in damp and moist conditions you can start earlier and work later into the evening. Part of MacDon's FeedMaX system, the side draper speed is increased up to 60% to optimize combine capacity and an optional in-cab side draper speed control allows on-the-go adjustment.MULTI-CROP HARVESTING SOLUTIONMacDon’s D1 Series headers are true multi-crop harvesting machines able to take down cereals, oilseeds, beans and just about any crop in any condition.
