Windrower
- Integrated AutoTracâ„¢ delivers faster cutting speeds while maintaining crop quality
- On the rotary unit, constant header speed allows you to set and maintain the best header speed for the crop and conditions, regardless of ground or engine speed
- The W235 is JDLinkâ„¢ enabled. You or your dealer can remotely monitor the machine to ensure optimal operation and keep tabs on routine maintenance
Features
Flexible cab options
The W200 Series Self-Propelled Windrowers feature the largest cab in their class, designed to maximize operator comfort and machine productivity for long harvest days. The W200 Series’ four distinct cab options provide flexibility in matching the right features for every operation.
Better visibility means better harvesting
Forward visibility is unequaled with the W200 Series Windrower cab. A large, wide-angle front windshield and cab-centered operator seat provide an unobstructed panoramic perspective from side-to-side and top-to-bottom. Operators can quickly scan the work area without having to look around cab obstructions.
Optimise machine settings with CommandARMâ„¢ controls and CommandCenterâ„¢ Display
The CommandARM provides the operator with unmatched control of the windrower and platform. Controls are designed and positioned to enhance operator ergonomics and are easy to locate and use. Operators will appreciate the common look and feel of these control consoles in the windrowers, which are similar to the design used in John Deere tractors and combines.
Adjustment of the CommandARM meets the needs of every operator; it adjusts at an angle, fore and aft, and up and down for precise operator comfort.
Efficient cooling packages control engine and oil temperatures
The W200 Series features several improvements over previous designs to keep the engine operating at optimal levels and improving engine life. Design features include:
- Increased screen area of 19 percent provides more air flow through the cooling package than previous models.
- Smooth, rounded path inside the wand and ducts keeps debris from slowing and plugging.
- Air lab engineered and field-tested ducting sized for air velocity and continual removal of debris.
- Wand backer plate helps stop debris from being sucked against the screen from the cooling fan for better cleaning performance.
- Cool air intake draws air from above chassis minimizing debris intake to cooling package.
- Stamped metal rear screen provides easier cleaning.
- Air-conditioner condenser and oil cooler assembly swing out for easy serviceability and cleaning.
Heavy-duty drive pumps and final drives provide power for any terrain
The W200 Series Self-Propelled Windrowers feature heavy-duty Sauer-Danfoss® drive pumps, providing flow to larger, heavy-duty, bent axis wheel drive motors for increased power and higher ground speeds in the field and transport operating range. The pumps and wheel motor housings are made of heavy-duty cast iron for quiet and reliable operation.
Increased engine horsepower, heavy-duty drive pumps, and wheel motors create:
- More available ground torque for better management of hilly terrain
- Easier loading of the windrower onto the trailer for transport
- Provides increased reliability of the hydrostatic components.
Smoother ride and better control with IntelliAxleâ„¢ steer assist
The industry-exclusive, rear-wheel steer assist system provides added control to the windrowers, enabling higher cutting and transport speeds.
IntelliAxle steer assist also has independent rear suspension, smoothing out the roughest field and road conditions and decreasing operator fatigue during long days in the field.
Independent rear suspension
The independent rear suspension contributes to a better quality of ride and less fatigue for the operator. The torsion axle design absorbs the shock experienced in rough terrains, allowing faster cutting speeds.
Maximise productivity with integrated AutoTracâ„¢ assisted steering system
The W200 Series Self-Propelled Windrowers exhibit the industry’s first fully-integrated AutoTrac steering system without the use of electrohydraulic pumps or universal type add-ons. The completely redesigned steering system features the industry’s only steering design, utilising multiple steering systems to maximise controllability.
