2024 Kuhn GF 1003 T Series 7803 T

Optimize your field efficiency with the GF 1003 T Series trailed rotary tedders, ranging in size from 25’7” to 56’5”. Both versatile and adaptable, these tedders are designed for producers and custom operators to harvest more crop in less time by easily transitioning from work to transport.

KUHN GF 1003 T Series trailed rotary tedders are ideal for both custom operators and hay producers. These machines provide exceptional tedding quality, resulting in a crop that is fully tedded over the entire width, and is efficiently and uniformly spread to maximize drying. Reduced drying times result in higher quality and nutritional value in hay and haylage.

Features may include:

• OptiTedd rotors offer a steep angle of attack for complete crop inversion and fast, uniform drying. The improved rotor design increases robustness and ensures effective tedding in all conditions. Small-diameter rotors, available on GF 7903 T/8703 T/10803 T/17003 T models, feature a minimum distance to the center of gravity to reduce lift and horsepower requirements. Large-diameter rotors, featured on the GF 7803 T/7803 THA, excel at spreading long, dense crops.

• Whether in long or short, wet or dry crop, or different cutting heights, the pitch angle is adjusted without tools near the wheel supports. Always remember a steep pitch angle will decrease drying time and increase the nutritional value of the forage.

• Standard Headland Lift Control, on GF 1003 T Series tedders, makes the machine easy to lift and maneuver on headlands while limiting the introduction of foreign materials like dust into the forage. This is beneficial because the headlands do not need to be tedded twice.

• When a KUHN engineer came up with this drive coupling design, we knew that it would revolutionize the rotary tedder. This patented design made it possible to reliably drive a large number of rotors, yet fold them for unmatched transport ease, all with virtually no maintenance or repairs. Since the DigiDrive coupling’s inception, nearly 20 years have passed and more than 150,000 KUHN tedders are now being used across the world to ted hay with the ultimate reliability.

• The 17003 T tedders utilize straps to reduce stress on the main frame and rotor structures. This allows fastening to the rotor ends, keeping the two sections stable while reducing oscillation. The straps also double as safety guards, replacing the metal guards. When folding for transport, the two straps automatically wind up like a seat belt.

• For clean, careful tedding next to fences or neighboring fields, GF 1003 T Series tedders are equipped with a border control system. On slopes, the border setting is particularly beneficial for controlling the direction of crop spread and obtaining an optimal spread pattern.

• The GF 13003 T and 17003 T come standard with GSC (Ground Save Control) system which allows the rotor gear to train to swing independently of the carrying frame.

• Unfolding or folding operations are quick and easy using the in-cab control box on select models. Time lost when changing fields is reduced to a minimum so you can focus on achieving maximum daily output.
