KS600 Topper
GRIMME offers a wide range of toppers including two, four and six-row machines and front-mounted options for both trailed and self-propelled harvesters. The withdrawal of diquat as a desiccant has created new interest in precision haulm topping as an alternative, in particular the GRIMME KS 600.
Developed specifically to suit UK conditions, the KS600 is a high output six-row trailed flail topper with a 2.3m front-mounted unit and two hydraulically folding trailed units able to top 6 rows or 3 beds in one pass.
The front unit is extra-wide, meaning it doesn’t only top the central two rows but also the outside half of the adjacent rows/beds. Otherwise, the tractor wheels would drag the tops overhanging the sides of the adjacent rows into the ground, preventing the rear units from cutting effectively.
The KS600 blows the cut haulm directly into the bottom of the rows instead of discharging it on top, minimising the potential spread of diseases from plant to plant.
