Its advanced leaf spring flexing cutterbar, combined with MacDon’s proven Active Float System and a flexing frame, delivers a quick float response. This trio supports up to 97% of the header’s weight, allowing it to adapt instantly to ground variations while avoiding soil disturbance. The result: a cleaner cut and less crop loss.
What sets the FD2 PLUS apart is its ability to run wider headers in irregular field conditions. With better flex, consistent feeding, and a closer cut, producers can improve efficiency, reduce fuel use, and harvest more effectively with every pass.
