Increase Hay Output Using the MF 1376 Mower Conditioner

Hay season is lingering around. And if you’ve worked even one season, you’ll know how quickly things pile up. You want weather, soil, storage, and machinery all on your side. The window to cutting hay is small, sometimes barely a week, and you need to make every hour count. 

For this hay season and all the upcoming ones, get a good hay cutting mower. The Massey Ferguson 1300 series mower conditioners need to be in your options list. 

This blog will tell you the importance of a sturdy mower conditioner and why the MF 1376 tops the list for best hay machinery. 

Why a Mower Conditioner Matters 

Now you might find yourself asking, “Why not just a regular hay mower?”. We will answer that for you. A regular mower won’t give the benefits that come along with a specially engineered mower conditioner. 

The MF 1376 doesn’t just cut the hay. It also crimps and conditions the hay, rubbing the stalks together, so it dries faster. When you have dried hay, it becomes convenient to work with while saving you from unexpected weather turns.  

Using a machine like this changes the way your paddock flows. You cut, condition, and lay out the crops in one smooth pass. Fewer passes mean less time on the tractor and more hours for other jobs around the farm.

Designed for Efficiency 

The MF 1376 hay mower is ideal for larger areas. Its wide-profile teeth offer cutting width that lets you cover the whole paddock in less time. This maximum load capacity turns out to be a bonus when racing the weather. It works efficiently in uneven or tricky terrain.  

Working with the MF mower conditioner doesn’t feel like wrestling the machine. It simply sits on the ground, works its magic, and leaves a clean paddock and dried hay. 

MF 1376 hay cutting mower features a Razoredge™ cutter bar. Letting you adjust the windrow size and shape as per your haying needs. It also works with counter-rotating discs, which increases overlap, providing an improved cut quality and minimising crop streaking. 

Now imagine yourself working with rough machinery that cuts through all kinds of pastures and conditions, so you never get stuck in the middle of a field wondering what to do next. 

Performance Enhancers You Won’t Find Anywhere Else 

• Herringbone conditioner rolls: It’s the extra-wide conditioner roll that increases the capacity of the header. 110-inch roll allows thinner crop distribution, so the conditioning is more uniform. 

• Cage crop conveyors: The cutter bed clearance makes the process a whole lot smoother. There are rotating cages at each end of the bed, that conveys crop material to conditioner roll so it won’t fly away or getting in the driveshaft’s way. 

• Top shield protector: For the durability of the machine parts, the MF mower is protected with tough poly panels on the underside of header shields. It absorbs the impact of rocks and debris that are thrown by the hay cutter.   

• Turbulence reduction roll: A turbulence reduction roll, or helper roll, located between the conditioner rolls and the cutter bed allows the conditioner rolls to be positioned farther back, improving performance in light crops and assisting crop flow in dense, heavier crops.  

• Pre-lubricated, sealed bearings: Less maintenance requirement means a little less headache. Compared to the cutter beds that require regular oil checks, the pre-lubricated bearings keep things smooth and give it longer life. 

• Rock guards: Smooth-profile rock guards, integrated into the cutter bed, reduce mud buildup while protecting the disc and knives from rocks and other obstructions. 
  

MF 1376 vs Other MF 1300 Series Mower Conditioners

The MF 1376 isn't the only option in the MF 1300 series lineup, and the right fit depends on your paddock size, tractor horsepower, and how much crop you're moving through in a season.

Larger operations covering wide paddocks in a short window tend to lean toward the 1376 for its cutting width and header capacity, while smaller acreages or tighter budgets may suit another model in the range better. If you're not sure which MF 1300 Series mower conditioner fits your setup, our team can walk you through the specs against your paddock size and tractor.
