Taking the proven performance and
efficiency of the COUGAR,
CLAAS has added
roller conditioners
to the lineup with the COUGAR 1400RC, giving producers the
ability to choose the right mower for their field conditions.
Leading the industry with the COUGAR 1400C (tine rollers), the
COUGAR 1400RC (roller conditioner) has all the
features one looks for in a mower to benefit their operation – a
mower that increases capacity, boosts fuel savings and reduces
labor inputs.
“Continuously improving features of the COUGAR to gain
efficiencies is at the forefront of all we do, and our
engineering team consistently raises the bar by listening to our
growers,” explains Matt Jaynes, Product Specialist.
“We’ve enhanced features on the COUGAR 1400RC to improve drying
time, mow more acres per day and increase consistency in the
feed quality,” he concluded.
The COUGAR 1400RC is equipped with a front mower conditioner,
laying a wide, loose and fluffy swath for quick drying -– making
perfect 24-hour silage. This feature is especially important for
operators working against the clock in a short harvesting
window. Each of the five independent DISCO mowers is equipped
with chevron roller conditioners and the award-winning
QUICK-KNIFE system for easy knife changing to reduce maintenance
time.
Another new feature for the COUGAR 1400RC is the pivoting
multifunction control lever. Integrated directly into the
armrest of the operator seat, all controls are within reach and
ultimate control is at your fingertips giving access to numerous
different functions. The pivoting lever simply needs to be
extended or retracted to move the COUGAR.
Minimizing drying time enabling you to mow and chop in a day is
one of the greatest advantages of the COUGAR. That, and its
ability to mow and condition in 45 ft. swaths, permitting
growers to switch a fleet of conventional mowers to one
self-propelled COUGAR, completing the work in less time,
reducing inputs and saving fuel. In fact, the COUGAR is the
industry-leading self-propelled mower with the largest capacity
and most mowed acres per gallon – saving growers time and money.
