SR820

McConnel’s largest and most productive mower, the SR820’s fast cutting action and 8.2m working width enables operators to tackle as much as eight hectares an hour - making it one of the most productive mainstream rotary mowers on the market.

Ideal for large-scale farmers, local government teams, and professional mowing contractors, SR series machines can be used in a huge variety of applications from airports and sports venues to pasture and stubble. Despite its size it is highly manoeuvrable and folds easily to a safe transport width of just 2.8m.

Overview

The SR820 is designed for productivity with five high-performance rotors and a choice of 10, 15, 20 or 30 hardened updraft swinging blades that enable it to tackle material up to 50mm thick.

Reliability is enhanced by a six gearbox driveline, each with built-in slip clutch protection, ensuring the power is spread evenly across the cutting width. This feature also enables an even cut and spread and an attractive finish.

McConnel’s range of high-performance delta wing rotary mowers has been designed to deliver peak performance over the ground with working widths from 4.2 to 8.2m, flexible wings, and powerful rotors.

Features

Blade options

The SR820 offers operators a choice of cutting options, including a six blade shredder kit with four updraft blades and two special blades for improved mulching. A blade tip speed of 5,340m per minute ensures a powerful cutting action which makes light work of maize stubble.
