Tedding for fast and even drying
Especially when having to deal with heavier cuts of grass, timely tedding is important to ensure fast and even drying. Suffi cient output combined with a proper turning action limits the wilting period and, hence, the fi eld period as well as any delay in re-growth. Properly tedded fodder is free from the turf and is raked together more easily. Proper ground contours as well as correct machine adjustments avoid crop contamination.
Ideal tedding due to the unique Lely hook tines
There are enormous differences between crop types, the various applications and the
seasons. Lely has for decennia used its unique hook tines, which to a large extent determine
the unique characteristics of the Lotus tedders, with great success. The biggest difference
lies in the optimal use of the form and flexibility of these unique tines.
Lotus hook tine + stability = speed
Lely Lotus tedders have a far higher output than competitive machines. This is notably
due to the Lotus hook tine and its ability to adjust quickly and to move large volumes of
grass. That is not the end of the story, though; the tedder itself also needs to be able to
ensure a high working speed.
Lely Lotus - sustainable technology ensures a low cost-price
It is generally known that Lotus tedders have a high trade-in value. This is due not only
to the unrivalled output for which the machines are well known, but without doubt
also to the durable construction of the tedders. Lotus tedders have an outstandingly
reliable drive system, which in recent years - just like the well thought-out frame
construction - has been continually improved.
