Loftness 180

HEAVY-DUTY CONSTRUCTION
The windrowers feature heavy-duty design, engineering and construction throughout.

280-HOSEPOWER GEARBOX
A standard feature on all Loftness shredder equipment, this field-proven and extremely reliable gearbox is rated at 280 HP. It spins the rotor at 1,450 RPM.

KNIVES
Windrower shredders are equipped with a reduced number of 4-1/2-inch-wide hard-surface cupped knives. The Windrower’s unique rotor knife pattern is designed to produce increased suction and enhance chop efficiency. Greater suction means you can operate just a bit higher, reducing the risk of striking hidden objects. This helps make the Windrower a perfect preparation tool for baling corn fodder and other kinds of residue.

FULL-LENGTH REAR SHIELDS
This unique design from Loftness allows high-speed air and particles to flow freely to the diffuser. They can also be operated in a retracted position for non-windrowing operations.

CHOP DIFFUSER
The grate-like diffuser deflects and directs the final chopped residue toward the ground. Combined with the rear shields, this system creates cleaner rows than those made by rakes.

REAR LIFT
The Windrower offers precise height adjustment for fine-tuning performance and chop. Rear lifting choices include three ratchets or three hydraulic lift units.

4-GROVE BANDED BELT
Efficient transfer of power via a four-groove banded belt and spring loaded push-type idler system.

1,000 RPM PTO
1-3/8-inch or 1-3/4-inch 1,000 RPM power takeoff. Includes over-running clutch and constant velocity knuckle.
