One of the rotary mower that was named E-53-2 type was made under tieal by us.
And researched the effect using it in milkvetch and soybean for silage.
1) Wheels of machine were propelled by driven rubber drums. —this is the different point to E-53-1 type, mower. —See fig. 2.
2) We applied two different size rotary cutter (K-type or E-type) and set several types of vertical vane on 4 arms of cutter (a, b, c, d, 1, 2, 3, 4)-See fig. 1.
3) We got the better results as the diameter of cutter, and the height and length of the vane became longer or heigher. (See teble 5)
4) We have got selfconfidence that we could harvest sufficiently thick milk vetch and soybean into regular windrows. (See fig. 2 and 3).
But we could not researched next items in this study, so we want to continue this study.
1) How much _??_ is consumed to havest grass or milk vetch by this machine?
2) What is the most effective shape of cutter?
