SPECIALTY CROP HEADER
Model SC1500
- The SC1500 adapts to the W260R & W260 to fully utilize John Deere's Cutterbar Technology.
- Curved knockdown bar and smooth inner ceiling helps reduce crop impact to minimize shatter.
- Designed and built to reduce the header cleaning time between crop varieties.
- Rotary cutter bar allows for harvesting speeds of 10+ MPH without comprimizing yield.
- Taller drums create superior air flow, leading to less crop contact and shatter.
The SC1500 was primarily developed to windrow grass seed crops such as rye, fescue and bluegrass but it can also be used to windrow other specialty crops listed below.
