Sealed camtracks have existed for a long time. Indeed, 15 years ago CLAAS set new standards in this area, with sealed camtracks offering continuous oil or low-viscosity grease lubrication, hermetically sealed against foreign objects and thus totally maintenance-free – the promise made was for performance without compromise. This is a promise which CLAAS has kept right up to the present day.
And this promise has not merely been kept, it has even been bettered. The new CLAAS socket swather series is an attractive proposition, sticking to a proven design, while improving its performance level in every area.
CLAAS professional rotor housing.
The proven closed rotor, which has been tested over thousands of hectares, has been improved for the new swather generation to increase the machines' performance and durability even further.
- Robust cast housing.
- Strongest cam track arms on the market, with a large tube diameter and walls constructed from strong materials.
- The tine arm bending point is located outside of the socket so that, in case of impact damage, the rotor does not have to be opened for repairs; only the tine arm needs to be replaced.
- Sturdy dual bearings on the tine arm to guard against horizontal and vertical loads, thus protecting the cam track rollers; large, wear-resistant tine arm slide bearings.
- In the case of the 14-arm swath gearbox of the LINER 1750 and 2900, forces on the cam track arms and rollers are minimised, even for high loads, by an additional bearing housing.

PROFIX tine arm bracket.
Standard equipment with the new LINER.
- Easy-release bracket for the tine arms.
- Multiple grooves on the tine arms for perfect, firm seating without play or wear.
- Marker arrow to help when replacing removed tine arms.
- All components of the PROFIX tine arm bracket can be replaced quickly and economically, should the need arise.

Contour tracking.
Three-dimensional, clean and powerful – contour tracking.
- Both rotors are free to move independently of the chassis.
- Three-dimensional tracking of uneven ground by the fully floating suspension, parallel and at right angles to the direction of travel.
- The tines always stay parallel to the ground, ensuring completely clean raking at any speed.
- 4-wheel running gear as standard with wheels closely positioned at the tines.
- Setting down of the rear chassis wheels before the front when lowering the rotors, so the tines do not catch in uneven ground.

No need to get up!
With the tine arms fitted, the new side swathers come in at a transport height under 4 m – the innovative design of the new family of swathers makes it possible.
- Telescopic rotors retract hydraulically after folding below a height of 4 m.
- Automatic locking device for mower, with pawl.
