Reducing Crop Competition Getting started with top cutting weeds The ZÜRN TOP CUT is a simple tool for mechanical weed control. • Reduction of crop competition, ensuring yield and quality of the harvest. • Weeds are cut precisely just above the crop by a horizontal double knife. • The special helical reel continuously pushes the weeds to the knife and cleans the cutting system. Light for the primary crop Especially in heavy weed populations, the primary crop often suffers from the impact of the weeds. Cutting with the TOP CUT provides soybean, for example, with light and increases its growth potential. Ensuring harvestability • Rigid cutterbar with 6 m working width for front loader mounting; pendulum frame for lateral tilt compensation available optionally. Cutting off weeds prevents clogging of the harvesters and lowers the moisture content. Thanks to the large reel diameter, the TOP CUT can also eliminate tall weeds and large plant volumes. • Infinitely variable hydraulic drives for the knives and the reel. Broad range of applications • Header transporter for safe road transport available as an option. The TOP CUT is suitable for a wide variety of weeds throughout the entire vegetation period. These include velvetleafs, goosefoot, thistles, sunflowers, amaranth and grasses. Topping grassland to control herbs in an early state is also possible. As a rental machine or in shared ownership Thanks to its intuitive operation, the TOP CUT is ideally suited for use across farms. Equipped with an operation hours counter and the matching header transporter, the machine can be attached to common tractors with a hydraulic flow rate of only 25 L/min. The Euro adapter frame makes it simple to attach to the front loader. Thereby, this enhances the operator‘s overview of the cut, the angle setting and the parallel and heig

Double Knife The double knife ensures a controlled shear cut that reliably trims both fine grasses and thick stems. The robust swing lever drive of the knife gearbox is particularly durable and long-lasting. The brushes on the helical reel sweep the blades and ensure a continuous crop flow - even in heavily weeded areas. The reel can be positioned precisely by adjusting it vertically and horizontally. Later upgrades are easily possible thanks to the modular design with identical components and defined interfaces. For example, the pendulum frame on the front loader or a working width module can...
