Do you expect nothing but high-quality forage to end up in the windrow? Then the innovative Fendt Former rotary rakes deserve your attention. An efficient and cost-effective machine for medium-sized farms.
With excellent performance across working widths from 6.60 m (1 windrow) to 7.70 m (2 windrows), they place high-quality forage in the windrow cleanly and precisely.

Benefits
Large working width even with low-horsepower tractors.
Three-dimensional ground contour following with good pick-up and crop flow, for low losses and low forage contamination.
Well suited to hilly terrain — the tines do not dig in on slopes and hills. Protects the sward.
Standardised sequence control, height and tilt adjustment for all rotors, and height limitation for perfect work on headlands.
Optimal windrow formation for all downstream forage harvesting machinery.
A stable, straight frame geometry with a low centre of gravity and a wide-track transport chassis ensure stable handling in any situation.
ISOBUS integration enables intuitive operation, and the MyMemory settings memory shortens changeover time.
