The efficient front-mounted mower-conditioner EasyCut F 400 Fold - perfect for larger forage areas!
This mower is front-mounted with a working width of 4.04 m. It is possible to adjust the spreading settings to expedite the drying process or lay it in rows directly. The Fold model also features a foldable rotor bar that reduces the transport width to 3 m, and it's hydraulically controlled from the driver's seat. This machine is designed for contractors and professional farmers who want maximum overlap and efficiency in combination with a butterfly configuration.

Improved yield and higher feed quality
Getting a rapid regrowth of the forage after the first cut is crucial for achieving a substantial second and, hopefully, third cut. While weather plays a significant role, the performance of the mower conditioner is equally vital. It's important to have a mower conditioner that provides clean cuts instead of tearing, which can damage the surface and hinder the forage's ability to recover. With Krone's SmartCut technology, grass is cut with a larger overlap, and changing blades is quick, resulting in clean cuts and higher yields.
Let technology assist you in achieving top-notch forage!
Spotting all the obstacles hiding in the forage can be challenging. That's why this machine is equipped with collision protection called SafeCut, which shields the machine from damage caused by rocks or branches. The integrated support arm protection reacts swiftly, halting affected cutter discs to minimize downtime and get back to work promptly. This system can save you costly and time-consuming repairs, especially when timing is crucial to getting top value for your feed.
Leak-proof and robust cutterbar for minimal maintenance
Krone's EasyCut machines require minimal maintenance thanks to their lifetime lubrication, durable construction, and large gears designed to minimize wear. This reduces both the time and cost of maintenance while ensuring the mower conditioner lasts longer. In the Farmers First Maintenance App, you'll find ready-made maintenance plans that help reduce downtime, extend the machine's lifespan, and improve its resale value.
Award-winning foldable cutterbar!
This first foldable cutterbar on the market is awarded the DLG Silver Medal at Agritechnica 2019. The KRONE development translates into maximum efficiency, maximum overlaps and maximum road safety. With a simple push of a button, the operator activates a hydraulic swiveling gearbox that folds the ends of the cutterbar without affecting the disc's operation, reducing the working width from 4.04 meters to less than 3 meters for transport.
Maximum regrowth with gentle cutterbar
In order for the pasture to recover and grow rapidly after the first cut, a gentle initial mowing is required. The Krone cutterbar is the heart of the machines and is built to last, with a robust welded construction and permanent lubrication. Its massive gears impress with quiet and reliable operation under continuous load, contributing to superior cutting quality and maximum longevity.
Safe field cutting and quick field repairs with SafeCut
Avoiding stones and branches hidden in the field can be challenging. That's why Krone equips its mowers with the SafeCut system, safeguarding your machine from unexpected obstacles, reducing downtime, and repair needs. SafeCut's unique features, such as pins that release under overload and self-lifting discs, prevent chain reactions and simplify on-field repairs. With this collision-resistant design and wear-resistant components, Krone's SafeCut system ensures a secure forage harvest.
Simple and fast blade changes
The key to clean cuts is quality blades, which is why Krone has developed a blade change system that is both simple and fast. This ensures that you can always achieve results with clean cuts in the field, promoting healthy and rapid regrowth. When it's quick to change the blades, it becomes easier to do so as often as needed, ensuring optimal performance of the mower.
Optimal performance and ground following, even on rocky fields!
The slidig skids are mounted under the mower bar, ensuring smooth forage flow while protecting the grass surface. Made from hardened steel, they are durable and help maintain the mower bar's parallel alignment with the ground, ensuring exceptional cutting precision. Various sliding skid options are available for different terrains or cutting heights, including wear plates and those suitable for high-cutting situations. The sliding skids provide the reliability needed for achieving optimal performance and ground-following capabilities in your mowing operations.
Enhanced forage efficiency with SmartCut
Experience optimized forage flow and seamless overlapping with the SmartCut technology. Our flying knife cut and increased disc overlap guarantee top-notch cutting quality. The eccentric drive allows versatile rotation options—swathing for center-focused rotation (A) or wide spreading with discs turning in pairs (B). These machines come with a standard spare blade drawer. The wedge-shaped cutterbar ensures adaptable settings for short or long stubble, providing reliable performance and a clean cut for diverse crops.
Efficient handling of large harvest volumes!
EasyCut F Fold is equipped with a string screw that effortlessly gathers the grass into a string right away. This simplifies and makes it more efficient for the subsequent machine to collect the feed directly, eliminating the need for a separate windrower.
Reliable and robust design with the fully welded cutterbar
KRONE uses welding robots and CNC technology to manufacture their cutterbars to the highest quality standards. Thanks to the fully welded and permanently lubricated construction, leakage is prevented, and maintenance needs are significantly reduced. This maintenance-free design ensures that the cutterbar retains its shape and function even after many years of use. Through a meticulous manufacturing process, permanent lubrication is ensured, eliminating the need for oil changes.
