Bi-shaft design

All the advantages of a hex bi-shaft cutterbar design that minimizes service … without the disadvantages of gear backlash, which can result in excess wear and fatigue to the gears. Cutting discs are self-contained and pre-packed with their own set of gears, bearings and lubricant for longer operating life. Even at extreme working angles the grease stays in the gears and does not flow to one side of the bar. Front and rear folding panels for easy access.
