R310- Non Conditioner Mower

McHale Pro Glide R310 Non Conditioner Mower

For over 30, years the McHale range of grassland equipment has been operating on 6 continents in some of the worlds most difficult conditions. Building on their comprehensive range of mowers, McHale now introduce the McHale Pro Glide R310 non-conditioner mower. Following direct requests from the market, McHale’s design team have combined their specialist knowledge of crop harvesting, energy and technical know-how to develop the McHale Pro Glide R310 non-conditioner mower.

The McHale Pro Glide R310 mower has excellent ground following capabilities delivering superior floatation. The mower is fitted with a patented ground adaptation technology which delivers 3-dimensional contour tracking of the ground. This allows the mower to easily mow on rough or undulating terrain and still deliver optimal results.

Most rear mowers have a central pin which allows the mower to move left and right to adjust to changes in ground condition. The McHale Pro Glide is different in that it is fitted with a patented 3D ground tracking suspension unit, which allows the mower to:

  • Move Left and Right
  • Move Forward and Back
  • Let the cutter bar move back and up if it collides with an obstacle.

This ensures that the Pro Glide cutter bar delivers better cutting performance.

Built To Last

Transverse Pivot Range - 17°

The left/right transverse movement means the cutter bar maintains a clean cut as it smoothly glides over humps and hollows in the ground.

Forward / Back Movement - 12°

This movement ensures a precision floatation of the cutter bar for a cleaner cut in all ground conditions.

The McHale Pro Glide range of mowers offers a number of unique features which delivers::

  • 3D Ground Tracking
  • Unique Forward/Back Movement of 12°
  • Transverse Movement of 17°
  • Unique Stone Protection
  • Superior Cutting Performance

3-Dimensional Ground Contour Tracking

The patented ground adaptation technology saves time and maximises throughput as the main break back protection is not easily triggered by an obstacle. The rear suspension springs react instantly to ground contours, offering a high-quality cut, even when working at high ground speeds.

Most rear mowers have a central pin which allows the mower to move left and right to adjust to changes in ground condition. The McHale Pro Glide is different in that it is fitted with a patented 3D ground tracking suspension unit, which allows the mower to:

  • Move Left and Right
  • Move Forward and Back
  • Let the cutter bar move back and up if it collides with an obstacle.

This ensures that the Pro Glide cutter bar delivers better cutting performance.

Mechanical Break-Back

If the mower hits an immovable object, the mechanical break back will be triggered. The break back will swing the machine backwards and over the obstacle before the spring-loaded design automatically returns the cutting unit to the original working position when clear of the obstacle.

Cutter Bar Features

The McHale Pro Glide R310 is equipped with an extremely strong, fully welded cutter bar that houses 7 discs, which deliver a cutting width of over 3 Metres. The cutter bar possesses a number of features which include:

Gearboxes

Heavy-duty gearboxes directly power the cutter bar. Compared to using belts, which can slip in heavy crop, direct drives ensure even and continuous distribution of power across the gears in the cutter bar.

Low-Profile Front Edge

The cutter bar has been designed so the rounded, low-profile front edge lets the fully welded cutter bar glide smoothly over the ground.

Tight Cut, Quick Change

The quick-change mower blades make it easy to change or replace worn or damaged blades. The blades overlap very close to the surface of the cutter bar to self- clean when working.

Drive Gears

In the cutter bar, large, heavy-duty, 25mm (1′) thick drive gears transfer the power to auxiliary gears which power the individual discs.

Mowing Discs

The 7 mowing discs on the cutter bar are specifically designed to maximise crop flow. All mowing discs are equipped with two blades that are angled at 10° to ensure a clean & even cut, leaving an uncontaminated swath.

Shear Protection

Each mowing disc has its own individual protective safety mechanism. If a collision occurs, the mechanism will shear the key in order to protect the drive.

Cutter Bar Floatation

A large compensating spring provides excellent floatation across the full width of the Pro Glide R310 mower. Accompanied by McHale’s renowned 3D Ground Tracking Technology, this easily adjusted pressure system delivers superior cutting performance in a quick and simple manner.

110° Transport Position

For transportation, the McHale Pro Glide folds vertically to position itself behind the centre point of the tractor for safe transport. The transport height of the machine is reduced as the mower bed is at 110 degree angle.

This allows for the weight of the mower to be distributed across the tractor while also providing the driver with a clear view from their rear-view mirrors.
