ABSTRACT:
An agricultural machine for tedding and windrowing fodder crops comprises a pair of drums (1,2) rotatable about shafts (12,13) and interconnectd by a chassis (3) which is connected to a coupling member (4) by a connecting beam (5). The coupling member (4) has attachment points (6,7,8) for coupling the machine to a tractor. Each drum carries at its lower portion a flexible, deformable skirt (17,18) for grasping and transporting the fodder. Means (19) are associated with each skirt (17,18) for carrying out tedding or windrowing. The means (19) may comprise drive means (20) which are movable into a first position for tedding and into a second position for windrowing. The drive means are pivotally mounted on the walls of the drums (1,2) and movement of the drive means between their two positions is achieved by means of a screw (35). Other means are disclosed in the specification for achieving tedding and windrowing.
