ABSTRACT:
A ditch swather comprises a transverse beam attached to single point hitch for drawing the beam forwardly in a direction transverse to its length with the beam support at either end by a pair of ground wheels. A swather section is pivotally mounted at one end of the frame and movable between a position inclined downwardly at 45.degree. to a position vertically upwardly by operation of a hydraulic cylinder. A gauge wheel at the end of the swather section remote from the frame controls the position of the swather section relative to the ground. The ground wheels at the end of the beam adjacent the swather section are mounted on a walking beam. The reel sickle knife and draper of the swather are hydraulically driven.
