Massey Ferguson hay tools give you all the versatility and control you need when the weather just doesn’t want to cooperate. Take our 1600 Hesston Series tedders, for example. Available in two sizes - 10 and 17 feet - to fit the needs of large and small operations alike, they’re designed to lift and spread the crop for fast drydown, while minimizing leaf shatter and maintaining hay quality. Whether you choose the 3-point or pull-type hitch, you’re assured of smooth, reliable performance, thanks to a standard torque limiter and an overrunning clutch linked to a fully enclosed gearbox that serves as an integral part of the mainframe.
You work hard to ensure a top quality hay crop, so why risk its value once it’s on the ground? Owning a 1600 Hesston Series tedder is like having an insurance policy for your crop.
