A CUT ABOVE THE REST

Haymaking season is no time for delays. That’s why we pioneered our true modular disc cutterbar decades ago. From this original design through today, the legendary New Holland disc cutterbar has been known for strength, reliability, and easy service. The latest design, the ultra-reliable MowMax™ II PLUS disc cutterbar, is no exception. Its commercial-grade durability and high-capacity, clean-cutting design will save you time and money.

LAWN-LIKE CUT, COMMERCIAL-GRADE DURABILITYNew Holland Discbine® PLUS Center Pivot Disc Mower Conditioners Discbine® 316 PLUS

The MowMax II PLUS true modular cutterbar delivers our cleanest and closest cut yet. It’s similar to the cutterbar featured on Durabine™ PLUS disc headers for Speedrower® PLUS self-propelled windrowers, which means you get commercial-grade durability and performance. Plus, you’ll find a variety of enhancements over our previous generation.

• Longer knives extend each module’s cutting diameter by nearly an inch and turn at a faster tip speed compared to previous models.
• Reshaped rock guards provide better crop-to-knife engagement
• To improve cutting in light or late-season crops, the profile of the cutterbar was lowered by bringing the discs closer to the cutterbar with new low profile ShockPRO™ hubs.
• In combination with the longer knives, this design is more productive in down and tangled crops as cutting height is lowered over 30%, leaving less uncut crop behind.

SAVE TIME WITH THE QUICKMAX™ KNIFE-CHANGE SYSTEMNew Holland Discbine® PLUS Center Pivot Disc Mower Conditioners Discbine® 316 PLUS

Time is precious when you’re making hay. To save you time and keep you cutting clean, the patented QuickMax™ knife-change system is standard on all Discbine® PLUS models. The system lets you quickly change knives with discs at a 45-degree angle to the cutterbar. In just seconds, you can change knives in just one-half cutterbar rotation, saving you time compared to traditional bolted knives and other competitive quick-change systems. Knife-lock technology assures that each knife is retained in the most difficult conditions. Best of all, the system does not require the use of special knives—it works with all approved New Holland knives.

3-YEAR MOWMAX CUTTERBAR WARRANTY

Every Discbine PLUS gives you peace of mind provided by 36 months of cutterbar warranty coverage, which includes one full year of base factory warranty plus two additional years of cutterbar warranty. You’re backed by the best in the business.

SET THE HEIGHT YOU LIKENew Holland Discbine® PLUS Center Pivot Disc Mower Conditioners Discbine® 316 PLUS

It’s quick and easy to set cutting height using the travel-limiting pin. For the highest cut height, insert the pin into the rearmost hole. For the lowest setting, remove the pin and store it on the cylinder to allow the head to move through its full tilt range. For the best performance, operate headland lift in the float position, and the head tips back to adapt to terrain.

 

windrow & swath control

FROM WIDE SWATHS TO NARROW WINDROWS

Fast drying requires crop to be evenly distributed over a wide swath. To help, the Discbine® PLUS Series provides enhanced swath control surfaces behind the conditioning system.

THE ADVANTAGES OF SPREADING CROP WIDE AND THINNew Holland Discbine® PLUS Center Pivot Disc Mower Conditioners Discbine® 316 PLUS

University tests confirm that the more leaves that are exposed to the sun, the faster crops dry and the more feed value is retained. Quick drying reduces sun bleaching and gives you an advantage when you need to beat the weather and bale or chop before the rain. Along with the WideDry™ conditioning system of your choice, the swath board wedges, and adjustable fins spread your crop wide and thin, exposing it to more sun for faster drying.

BETTER CONTROL MEANS BETTER WINDROWSNew Holland Discbine® PLUS Center Pivot Disc Mower Conditioners Discbine® 316 PLUS

The full-width horizontal swath gate has been extended five inches longer than prior models for improved crop control and greater windrow uniformity. Adjustable crop-spreading wedges help break up crop streams, while adjustable crop fins provide additional windrow control. Windrows can be neatly shaped as narrow as three-feet-wide to any setting in between—up to six feet on the 310 PLUS, seven feet on the 312 PLUS, or eight feet on the 313 PLUS and 316 PLUS.

WEDGES AND FINSNew Holland Discbine® PLUS Center Pivot Disc Mower Conditioners Discbine® 316 PLUS

Windrow forming shields are over five inches taller than previous models and work with the swath gate to produce a tunnel effect. Specifically, this taller design—with greater curvature at the bottom—provides more precise windrow control, helping to tuck the edges in for neater-looking swaths with improved dry down.
