Reliable cost effective mowing
CMP 3001A
With a cutting width of 300 cm (9'10") and an integrated
conditioner the new Vicon
CMP 3001A is a basic version of the existing CM 300A. It is a
compact no-frills machine for cost conscious farmers. Wheels,
cutting head and conditioner are one unit. Together with a large
conditioner this makes the CMP 3001A suitable for use with low
horse power tractors.
Ground pressure compensation
The CMP 3001A's ground pressure compensation is very
sophisticated. The ground pressure is compensated by means of
two sets of torsion bars. The torsion bars are connected
via a triangular lever which again is connected with the draw
bar by a rod. So ground pressure is controlled by the draw bar.
Consequently independent of the position of the mower the
ground pressure is always equal over the full cutting width.
This means excellent adaptation to ground contours, no swath
damage and minimum saucer wear.
