New Holland Discbine® PLUS Center-Pivot Disc Mower-Conditioners - Discbine® 312 PLUS

Haymaking season is no time for delays. That’s why we pioneered our true modular disc cutterbar decades ago. From this original design through today, the legendary New Holland disc cutterbar has been known for strength, reliability, and easy service. The latest design, the ultra-reliable MowMax™ II PLUS disc cutterbar, is no exception. Its commercial-grade durability and high-capacity, clean-cutting design will save you time and money.

The MowMax™ II PLUS true modular cutterbar delivers our cleanest and closest cut yet. It’s similar to the cutterbar featured on Durabine™ PLUS disc headers for Speedrower® PLUS self-propelled windrowers, which means you get commercial-grade durability and performance. Plus, you’ll find a variety of enhancements over our previous generation.

• Longer knives extend each module’s cutting diameter by nearly an inch and turn at a faster tip speed compared to previous models.
• Reshaped rock guards provide better crop-to-knife engagement
• To improve cutting in light or late-season crops, the profile of the cutterbar was lowered by bringing the discs closer to the cutterbar with new low profile ShockPRO™ hubs.
• In combination with the longer knives, this design is more productive in down and tangled crops as cutting height is lowered over 30%, leaving less uncut crop behind.

Time is precious when you’re making hay. To save you time and keep you cutting clean, the patented QuickMax™ knife-change system is standard on all Discbine® PLUS models. The system lets you quickly change knives with discs at a 45-degree angle to the cutterbar. In just seconds, you can change knives in just one-half cutterbar rotation, saving you time compared to traditional bolted knives and other competitive quick-change systems. Knife-lock technology assures that each knife is retained in the most difficult conditions. Best of all, the system does not require the use of special knives—it works with all approved New Holland knives.

A 2-year base warranty is standard on all Discbine® PLUS models, effective July 1, 2023. The extended MowMax™ cutterbar warranty starts after the expiration date of the base warranty to provide an additional year of coverage. Cut with even more confidence.

It’s quick and easy to set cutting height using the travel-limiting pin. For the highest cut height, insert the pin into the rearmost hole. For the lowest setting, remove the pin and store it on the cylinder to allow the head to move through its full tilt range. For the best performance, operate headland lift in the float position, and the head tips back to adapt to terrain.
