HIGHER-QUALITY FEED AND MORE OF IT

The New Holland pull-type models feature wide, rugged 12-knife cutterheads built for efficient chopping. For top capacity, choose the FP230 or FP240. They’re heavy-duty performers that have been thoroughly tested to match today’s higherhorsepower tractors—from the rugged 1000-rpm driveline gearbox all the way to the cast iron spout base. For added versatility, the FP230 and FP240 can be equippedwith New Holland’s optional CropPro®onboard crop processor. CropPro makes corn silage that’s easier to digest, which helpsincrease milk production and eliminates the expense and process time of a stationary roller mill.

SMOOTH FEEDING AND REVERSING

New Holland chop quality starts with four power-driven feedrolls that deliver material smoothly to the cutterhead for a controlled, even cut. The front feedrolls are aggressive to handle heavy materials and pull in slugs. The smaller, rear feedrolls grip the crop tightly to ensure an even, precise cut to keep cobs or long pieces of silage from getting into the wagon or truck. Spring-loaded upper feedrolls keep material compressed to reduce bunching and plugging problems, assuring consistent length of cut.
A special gearbox permits reversing the feedrolls and header drive to clear heavy slugs in case of overload. An electric clutch provides immediate response and positive control of the gearbox.

FAST SHARPENING AND ADJUSTMENT

One of the reasons chop quality is the hallmark of New Holland forage harvesters is because New Holland makes knife sharpening and shearbar adjustment so easy. The built-in knife sharpener features a huge, three-inch-diameter, ratchet-advanced stone that automatically advances at the end of each stroke. The cutterhead reverses to ensure a true cutting edge on all knives. Sharp knives and the easy-to-adjust shearbarkeep you chopping at peak productivity and save on tractor wear and fuel by reducing power requirements. A shearbolt protects the driveline if a foreign object hitsthe cutterhead.

Uniform chopping with 12-width knives

The heart of New Holland forage harvesters is the massive,12-knife cutterhead that's built to move more crop and chop it uniformly using full-width, spiral, hardened-alloy knives with tungsten edges. Producing high-quality feed with less power and less fuel, there's simply no better cutterhead-and none that's easier to sharpen.
