ABSTRACT:
A disc mower incorporates a modular disc cutterbar surrounded by a flexible canopy supported from a frame. A split guard is mounted to the distal end of the mower canopy to keep objects away from the end of the disc cutterbar. The guard presents a smooth contiguous surface to prevent debris and crop material from catching the guard. The guard has an L-shape configuration, including a front member leg oriented to project rearwardly while a rear leg member is oriented to project forwardly. The front and rear legs overlap in line with the transverse pivot axis of said canopy support such that the split guard presents a continuous edge for effectively deflecting crop material.
