The advantage of our centre-swath rakes is their uniform and airy swath placement. They are especially manoeuvrable and easy to operate Our centre-swath rakes guarantee a perfectly matched swath for the next machine in the harvest chain.

The highest performance models – TOP 842 C, 962 C = The best forage quality for professionals

Our most powerful TOP centre-swath rakes guarantee you gentle forage handling thanks to the best ground tracking. The swath is deposited as a loose and airy blanket.

High output for straw

The large TOP centre-swath rakes can be used not only for silage or hay, but also for raking straw. That is how you benefit in every respect from excellent working results.

Removable MULTITAST wheel

Because the MULTITAST wheels are offset to the outside, the TOP 842 C and TOP 962 C are also ideal for turning or merging straw swaths. If required, these can simply be removed.

Adjustable lifting clearance

You can adjust the lifting height of your machine to meet your requirements. You set the required working width hydraulically.

Adjustable lifting height and hydraulic working width adjustment

You can adjust the headland lifting clearance using a valve for limiting the lifting height.

The higher the setting, the larger the swaths you can drive over without disruption. This way you give your forage the best possible protection.

The lower the clearance height, the faster the height is reached at the headland and the more time you save.

The hydraulic working width adjustment on the TOP 842 C ranges from 7.70 m to 8.40 m and on the TOP 962 C from 8.90 m to 9.60 m.

Convenient operation from the tractor seat

One single-acting connection to the tractor hydraulics is all that is needed for lifting.

If you want to lift the rotors at the same time, there is a flow splitter provided as standard. This is an advantage especially on slopes.

An individual rotor lifting system with electrical preselect is available for raking headlands and final passes that only need one rotor width. This system also includes a pushbutton for pivoting into the transport position. In this case no rope lanyard is needed.

The optional swath curtain folds up automatically.

Perfect ground tracking and smooth operation

1 - The suspension springs make sure that the rotors run smoothly in the working position. They also greatly increase stability on steep ground and when lifting the rotors individually. The large tyres on the chassis ensure optimum stability.

2- The MULTITAST jockey wheel system together with the five-wheel chassis inside the arc of the tines guides the rotor over each bump and considerably reduces forage contamination. This makes the rotors run more smoothly and suppresses vibrations. Even at high speeds, the rakes operate smoothly. Internal jockey wheels can be steered as standard on the TOP 962 C. Steerable jockey wheels are optional on the TOP 842 C.

3 - The TOP 962 C features a six-wheel chassis. Choose the optional MULTITAST wheel and experience the best ground tracking in any terrain. Absolutely smooth operation is guaranteed even at maximum driving speed.

Transporting your TOP rake on the road is safe and convenient.

Transport height under 4 m

The hydraulic working width adjustment system is also used for raising into the transport position. The mechanical safety interlock engages automatically.

• The transport height with tine arms fitted is 3.99 m / 4.60 m.
• With tine arms removed, the height in the transport position is between 2.92 and 3.50 metres.
• Lights and mudguards are fitted as standard.
• Air brakes or hydraulic brakes are optional.
