ABSTRACT:
A sickle apparatus employing an endless cutter mechanism is provided wherein its modular construction allows the size of the apparatus to be readily tailored to variously sized equipment. A plastic liner is configured to engage the rollers of the roller drive chain as well as form a seal with a section of the traveling blades to reduce the incursion of debris into the mechanism. The blades have a positive angle of attack and are additionally configured to continually sweep out any debris from between sealing surfaces.
