2017 Kubota Disc Mowers DM DM5040
Kubota's extensive range of mounted and trailed disc mowers were specifically developed for the North American market. This range of disc mowers is durable, yet still features a light weight design. With working widths ranging from 5'6" to 13'1" there is a machine for every customer. Along with Kubota's fully welded cutterbar and 3-blade per disc, Kubota's range of disc mowers can efficiently handle any crop condition.
Features may include:
User-Friendly Trailed Pull-Type Disc Mower- Kubota's DM5000 series are easy to operate and have low horsepower requirements. This in turn reduces fuel consumption by allowing the mowers to be used with smaller tractors. Due to Kubota's independent active suspension, the DM5000 series mowers have a remarkable ability to adapt to ground contours. This technology improves productivity, while also helping to protect the cutterbar from any unforeseen obstacles.
Active Suspension- DM5032 and DM5040 have an exceptional ability to adapt to field conditions. The active suspension ensures even pressure across the entire cutterbar while in rough conditions. With 1'2" of upward suspension and 9.3" of downward adaption, these machines ensure that the cutting discs are always positioned close to the ground. The DM5000 Series floatation system protects the complete machine from possible shock loads. When an obstacle is encountered the cutterbar will pivot upward and over the obstacle, then automatically return once the obstacle has been passed.
Lateral Flotation- DM5000 series machines provide for 17 degrees of sideward adaption. This generates many benefits while working on hillsides or when aligning the unit on headlands.
Swivel Hitch Gearbox- The swivel hitch gearbox is fixed to the mainframe in order to minimize movement during operation, yet it provides unlimited rotational movement between the machine and the tractor making it easier to perform sharp turns.
