New Kuhn Drum Mower

PZ 170 offers alternative for small to medium-size farms for low horsepower haying.
Compiled by staff 
Published: May 23, 2011

Kuhn's new PZ 170 drum mower is an economical alternative for small to medium size farms for mowing fields or cutting hay with minimal horsepower.

The PZ 170 is new to Kuhn's North American equipment lineup and offers a 5.5 foot working width.

This model is equipped with two flat-sided drums for efficient crop transport and to help eliminate blockage. Kuhn engineers have provided bolt-on transport strips to further boost throughput. Rotating skids also work to reduce crop contamination by rotating over the ground rather than sliding in uneven conditions, while protecting the stubble and turf. In addition, a standard flotation spring reduces the weight of the mower unit on the ground to improve flotation and terrain following.

The quick-change blade system ensures trouble free blade change in seconds and uses a provided tool that rides on board. The machine is also protected with a breakaway system in case the operator hits obstacles in the field.
