Features & Benefits
Disc Drive Safety System (DDSS)
All SIP mowers have a shear-pin system that prevents damage to the gears in the cutter bar in case of overload. The system – four brass shear pins on an intermediate flange – is designed to allow the pins to be changed quickly and easily, minimising downtime.
Heavy Duty Mowing Discs & Wear Skids.
The wear-resistant hardox steel used for skids and discs means they last longer, and the discs are designed to deliver excellent forage flow.
Quick Change Blades
Mowing blades are held in place with a spring plave and can be changed quickly in the field.
Hydro-Pneumatic Syspension
The advanced suspension design ensures the pressure of the cutter bar on the ground is consistent in all conditions.
Direct Drive Onto Cutter Bar
SIP mowers have a full-width cutter bar and no inner skid. This design reduces the chance of blocking, especially when turning while mowing.
Collision Safety System.
Hitting a rock or other large object can mean expensive repairs for some mowers. But not for a SIP. These incorporate a safety system that allows the mower to clear the object and then reset automatically before getting back to work.
Testimonials
John Nicholls, Canterbury
John Nicholls runs six dairy properties milking in excess of 5000 cows in mid Canterbury. He owns five SIP mowers which are used predominantly for keeping up pasture quality to ensure top quality feed for his cows going forward. John and his team love their SIP mowers because they are very solidly build and easy to use, and “the ability to float over the top of the contour just gives us a great result.”
Jono Riordan, Southland
Jono Riordan farms in central Southland and currently milks about 450 cows. He mainly uses the SIP mower to do topping, to keep the pasture quality right for the cows, and the mower does a really good job. They also make 300-400 bales of baleage per year, and would usually top the farm three times per year.
Richard Pearse, Canterbury
Richard Pearse sharemilks 1250 cows in Canterbury. He is really impressed with his SIP mower, a well built, sturdy mower, and it really contours the ground nicely. It is quick and easy to attach to the tractor, and the quick change blades are great.
Digger, Waikato
Digger is a contractor in Waikato, doing about 3000-4000 bales a year. He is very impressed with the SIP mowers, especially compared to other brands. He’s mowed about 350 hectares and hasn’t had to change a shearpin or a blade yet! Quick and easy to set up – less than 10 minutes and off he goes.
