The DISCO AUTO SWATHER models are fitted with load-sensing comfort hydraulics as standard. You can control the mower units via a tractor terminal, a CEMIS 700 or any other ISOBUS terminal on the market. All belt functions are fully integrated into the control system.

Mowers with conditioner have a sealed concave plate to prevent any losses as the crop is transferred from the conditioner tines to the belt units. A belt cover is optionally available which enables you to further reduce material losses in particularly dense crops, for example. It also reduces cleaning times.

For swath grouping, the two belt units are folded down to form a perfect box-shaped swath specifically for a biomass crop. The high torque of the belt drive allows operation at low rpm.

In addition to depositing a single swath, by folding up one of the belt units, during a back-and-forth pass you can consolidate a working width of 18 metres into 12 metres. Working in combination with the LINER 4700, which has a raking width of 12.70 metres, the mower can combine a working width of 18 metres into a single swath. Results from the field show that this can boost the JAGUAR's harvesting capacity by up to 40 percent.

When the weather lets you down, stay flexible: by folding up the belt units, you can operate the mower as a normal large-scale mower.

Mower models with conveyor belts make for even more efficient edge mowing: with an active belt unit at the outside field edge, you can throw the crop material inwards to make sure none of your valuable crop is lost.

When the mower units are raised at the headlands, the feed belts are automatically accelerated to the maximum speed with the patented BELT BOOST technology. This forms a tapered swath, rather than increasing its width. The swath is then picked up by the harvesting machine following behind without any loss of material.

A tilt sensor in the headstock enables the ground pressure (ACTIVE FLOAT) and belt speed – and in the DICSO 9700 models, the adjustment range – to adjust automatically to the current slope angle. The pressure change required to suit the gradient can easily be adjusted from the terminal. This reduces the operator's workload, and improves work quality. The change in frictional forces also helps to positively counter slope drift, which in turn protects the sward. The result is optimal swath formation in cross-slope passes, and less risk of unmown strips or crop soiling.

The 700 mm hydraulic lateral adjustment is accomplished by the central arm, which features an extra-wide mounting bracket. This is key to achieving perfect ground-contour following at all times. The double guide stabilises the mower unit under high loads.

When both cross-conveyor augers are swung shut, the crop is laid in a loose swath. During wide spreading they are swung open to enable more intensive drying of the crop. For maximum flexibility, each auger can be swung open or shut individually from the comfort of the cab, even on the move. This enables partial wide spreading. For example, you can choose to throw the crop in towards the middle at the field margin to avoid losses, or consolidate a working width of 18 metres to 12 metres during back-and-forth passes.

For maximum throughput, CLAAS uses a conical cross-conveyor auger whose diameter increases inwards (towards the swath). Combined with a conical feed channel, this enables even large crop volumes to be tidily deposited in a loose, uniform swath. The shear bar at the auger outlet and the 'conveying pockets' which create additional space behind the cross-conveyor auger facilitate smooth crop flow and prevent material build-up.

Reliable technology, user-friendly and easy to operate.

The cross-conveyor augers can be swivelled open and closed individually via the ISOBUS terminal, even while driving. When the auger, housing and trough unit is swivelled shut, it is supported across its entire width directly behind the MAX CUT mower bed. This ensures that the feed channel is completely closed and feed losses can be ruled out.

To achieve true wide spreading, the cross-conveyor augers are swung open and out of the crop flow. With the adjustable swath former, you can throw the crop into the middle on one side only to produce a tidy swath without overlaps.

Various control options are available depending which model you choose. For example, BUSINESS models come with load-sensing comfort hydraulics as standard. They can be operated via a tractor terminal, a CEMIS 700 or any other ISOBUS terminal on the market. CONTOUR models are controlled via the tractor spool valves and preselection as standard.

The two telescopic arms, each with a 3.80 m wide MAX CUT mower bed, can be infinitely adjusted to the front mower from the terminal. The protected, inside travel measurement rams provide flexible overlap setting capability, allowing a greater overlap in tight bends or on slopes, for example. For transport purposes, the mower units can be folded up and telescoped down, allowing up to 20 cm ground clearance. This gives a compact transport position of less than 4.00 m with a maximum working width of 10.70 m.

The 700 mm hydraulic lateral adjustment is accomplished by the central arm, which features an extra-wide mounting bracket. This is key to achieving perfect ground-contour following at all times. The double guide stabilises the mower unit under high loads.

A tilt sensor mounted on the headstock provides optimal assistance for mowing on slopes. Automatic control of the telescopic travel in the DISCO 1100 and the adjustment range in the DISCO 9700 models enables not just the ground pressure (ACTIVE FLOAT) but also the position of the rear mower units to be adapted to the gradient.
This helps to prevent drift and avoids unmown strips on sloping ground – ensuring a clean cut whatever the terrain.

• KENNFIXX hydraulic connectors with colour-coded nozzles and magnetic bracket
• Hydraulic foldable protective covers (depending on model)
• Lower link guide straps and ergonomic mounting area
• LED work lights (depending on model)

A COMFORT version of the DISCO 1010 is also available, which combines the simple basic functions with ISOBUS operation. Folding and unfolding is controlled by one spool valve, so the lift can be integrated into the headland management. The load-sensing hydraulics automatically control protective cover folding, pivoting to the rear and the transport lock. Further functions can be conveniently controlled via ISOBUS or the function keys, e.g. rapid adjustment of the ACTIVE FLOAT pressure on both sides.

The combined spool valve and ISOBUS operation in the DISCO COMFORT is particularly useful for customers operating under constantly changing conditions.

This option includes a hydraulic transport lock, hydraulic protective cover folding, and an automatic individual lift function which preselects the second mowing unit as soon as the first is raised for optimum ease of operation. For this you need a double-acting spool valve instead of the single-acting one – the function is operated via the CEMIS 10 terminal. PLUS operation is particularly recommended for tractors with few or mechanical spool valves.

These DISCO models are the perfect choice if you simply want to mow – using professional equipment, but without electronics: folding, mowing, lifting – all via one single-acting spool valve. To control the ACTIVE FLOAT while underway, you simply need another single-acting spool valve. Pivoting backwards and forwards is controlled via a double-acting spool valve.

Option: direct individual lifting function.With an additional single-acting spool valve, you can lift each mowing unit individually via a separate spool valve. Or use the headland management system to lift both mowing units together, making the most of tractor's intelligence.

The DISCO 1010 TREND and COMFORT models offer you a large working width of 9.70 and 9.90 m – depending on the desired overlap. And with CLAAS you get two more mowing discs, making nine in total – for a genuine 3.80 m working width per mower unit!Ideal on the road – compact and close to the tractor without endangering oncoming traffic during turning manoeuvres. Even steep field entrances can be negotiated with ease. The tilt angle of the mower units also makes for easy hitching and unhitching. Vector folding is provided by an additional valve in the ram of the hydraulic collision protection. What's more, the mower units easily pivot inwards to give you a clear view in the rear mirror.

A tilt sensor mounted on the headstock provides optimal assistance for mowing on slopes – adjusting the ground pressure (ACTIVE FLOAT) to suit the gradient. This helps to prevent drift and avoids unmown strips on sloping ground – ensuring a clean cut whatever the terrain. In the DISCO 9700 COMFORT, the position of the rear mower units are automatically adapted to the gradient as well.

The 700 mm hydraulic lateral adjustment is accomplished by the central arm, which features an extra-wide mounting bracket. This is key to achieving perfect ground-contour following at all times. The double guide stabilises the mower unit under high loads.
