The three-point hitch single-rotor Swadro models of 3.50 m to 4.60 m work widths (11'6" to 15'1") stand out for their unique strength and engineering. Many of their well-proven features were taken over from the high-output rakes. The larger the rotor diameter the more important the running gear. It is down to the running gear whether the tines cover the full work width and work at a consistent height. These are essential parameters for clean forage, because undulations and ruts can lead to contaminated and thus poor-quality forage. For this reason, KRONE offers the single-rotor rake with a tandem axle and makes this a standard feature. This can be upgraded by a leading land wheel that is provided as an option for even better contouring.

- Folding tine arms
- Standard tandem axle and flotation tyres
- Stepless work width control for a consistently high-quality forage
- The jockey wheel in the middle guides the rotor in undulating fields
- Swadro 38, 3.8m 10 Arm
- Swadro 42, 4.2 m 13 Arm
- Swadro 46, 4.6m 13 Arm
Setting the tines to an optimum position: The special Lift tines perform better, because their ends maintain a steep angle even in heavy crop and lift it more easily, which leads to more uniform windrows. As a result, the machine can work at a faster pace and still deliver consistently well shaped windrows.
As the rollers move in steep cam tracks they lift and lower the tine arms quickly and with greatest precision to the effect that the crop stays clean and the windrows are tidy and boxy. The 47 mm (2") diameter tine guiding rollers offer a generous contact area, are protected from ingress of dust and absolutely maintenance-free.
The KRONE Tridem running gear: All rotors run on a Tridem running gear from KRONE. Specified as standard, the running gear consists of an extra wide rear axle and a flexible front axle which form a triangle. Occupying all space under the rotor, the construction has the wheels stabilise the rotors exactly in those areas the tines work under load.
