Abstract
A haymaking machine includes at least one swathing rotor supported by a frame which can be attached to a tractor. The rotor is driven during operation by a hydraulic motor which is supplied by hydraulic lines that are connected to the hydraulic motor. The frame carries a guard which at least partially surrounds the rotor and includes at least one folding part which can be folded back to reduce the dimensions of the guard. The haymaking machine further includes a stopping device which is placed on one of the hydraulic lines and an actuating device for actuating the stopping device. The actuating device is connected to the at least one folding part of the guard.
Claims18
A haymaking machine, especially a swather, comprising:
- at least one swathing rotor carried by a frame which can be attached to a tractor, said rotor being driven to rotate during operation by a hydraulic motor which is supplied by hydraulic lines which are connected to a hydraulic pump, said frame additionally carrying a guard which at least partially surrounds said rotor and includes at least one folding part which can be folded back to reduce the dimensions of the guard;
- at least one stopping device for stopping a driving action of the rotor, said at least one stopping device being placed on one of the hydraulic lines which lead to the hydraulic motor and being adjustable between at least a position in which a passage on the one of the hydraulic lines is open and a position in which the passage is closed;
- and
- actuating means for actuating said stopping device, said actuating means being connected to the folding part or parts of the guard.
