Krone Vendro

Rotary tedders

• LED light for maximum road safety
• Compact V-shaped frame with three-point headstock minimises weight shift from the front axle
• Prop stand at the rear and wide storage stand at the front pro-vide good stability and raise the wheels from the ground
• Stylish light-weight plastic deck in a sloping design for effective self-cleaning
• Headland position pre-setting feature avoids tedding the same area twice for optimum wilting
• Auto-folding hoop guards maintain maximum agility also in working Position
• Main gearbox with overrunning clutch prevents instant rotor stopping
• Mechanical or hydraulic damper struts ensure stable rides and optimum spreads
• New KRONE OptiTurn tines lift and spread the crop in an ideaal way
• Gauge wheels run close to the tines providing exact tine control and optimum forage quality

The EasyCut TS/TC models

• Multiple attachment options for great versatility
• Choice of conditioners to suit different crops
• Tried-and-tested – the solid EasyCut cutterbar
• Hydraulic suspension for superb contouring and sward protection

Performing in the most versatile conditions around the world, the new and stylish EasyCut TS/TC models stand out for their enormous versatility and flexibility. Choose from various drawbar ends and three different conditioners and opt for the Collect swathing belt as examples of the versatility on offer.

Attachment and storage

• Compact supporting frame for three-point linkage very close to the tractor
• Automatic alignment in the centre when folding into transport position
• Damper struts for stable rides behind the tractor
• Minimum front axle relief and low lifting force requirement thanks to compact design
• Good stability of the parked machine thanks to front and rear support jacks

The KRONE Vendro tedders impress by stable rides
and convenient changeovers that are executed
from the seat. With the rotors folded in, the rotary
tedders are compactly mounted on the tractor
and can be easily moved and parked to save space
thanks to the favourable centre of gravity.

The KRONE OctoLink clutches

• KRONE OctoLink finger clutch – eight fingers make frictional Connections
• The driveline to the rotors is never cut„
• No risk of driveline damage due to operator error
• Maintenance-free driveline minimises service and maintenance and maximises lifetime

All Vendro tedders benefit from the tried-and-tested KRONE OctoLink finger clutches. The rugged units require no lubrication at all. This is the kind of dependable and low-maintenance machine you have always wanted.

The gearboxes

• Standard overrunning clutch in the main gearbox maximises safety when turning off the machine
• Rotor gearboxes
• Maintenance-free and liquid-grease lubricated
• Long service life thanks to permanent lubrication and the cantilevered design
• Reduction gearbox produces small night swaths for faster wilting

The KRONE rotary tedders are designed to deliver perfect functionality. Key elements in this context are the main gearbox with a standard overrunning clutch and the maintenance-free and permanently lubricated rotor gearboxes.

• The rotor wheels run extremely close to the rotor providing optimum contouring
• Curved 3D tines lift and spread the crop perfectly
• Rotors overlap for clean and uniform spreads
• Optimum spreads for uniform wilting and highest-quality forage

The KRONE OptiTurn rotor design make real big-time. The special design sees the rotors overlap generously so the KRONE OptiTurn tines can lift the crop cleanly and spread it uniformly at an optimum width for fast wilts and optimum animal feed. This technology boosts your productivity not only in the field but also in the milking parlour.

• Big flotation tyres for gentle treading and sustained sward protection
• Optimum rotor control for perfect ground hugging and clean forage
• Stable rides behind the tractor also in curved passes
• Anti-wrap guards protect the wheels in long-haulmed crops

Proper tyres are important in forage harvesting. Therefore the KRONE tedders run on oversize flotation tyres that provide accurate control to the rotor, keeping the crop clean and protecting the sward by minimising the ground pressure.

• Altering the angle of throw alters the intensity of conditioning
• A steep angle controls tedding, a shallow angle controls turning
• Easy adjustment to 13°-19° angles without tools

Tedding or turning? Vendro allows you to change from tedding to turning or vice versa at the spur of the moment. Simply change the spreading angle and the crop is conditioned at the required intensity.

• Standard border spreading control avoids losses along boundaries
• Manual control is standard specification on Vendro 470 to 790
• Convenient hydraulic control from the cab is standard specification  on Vendro 820 to 1120 and an option on Vendro 470 to 790 models
• Vendro C models optionally equipped with hydraulic border spreading curtain

We would be saving wrong if we wouldn’t make border spreading control a standard feature on the Vendro tedders. The system spreads the material towards the middle of the machine when tedding along field boundaries. You either set the mode from a straightforward manual control on the machine or hydraulically from the convenience of the cab.
