Rotex Edelweiss
Lightweight and compact front-mounted disc mower, for mowing on steep slopes.
Range of lightweight front-disc mowers, ideal for mowing fodder in the mountains.
The ultra-compact design of the frame, with its ‘V’-shaped supporting beam, considerably reduces the overhang of the mower, bringing it even closer to the tractor, an indispensable feature for operating at its best even in alpine settings and on sloping terrain in general.
The minimum power absorption at PTO means that the Rotex Edelweiss can also be applied to lower power tractors, reversible isodiametric tractors and special mountain tractors.
Edelweiss | The Queen of the Alps
In order to keep weight and dimension down, the gearbox is made of light alloy and is placed behind the first disc to facilitate the outflow of the cut forage.
The cutter bar is protected both at the front and at the top with a synthetic sheeting, instead of a metal sheet, for a significant reduction in the overall weight of the machine.

Structure.
- Control support in light alloy with gears in oil bath and integrated torque limiting clutch to protect the transmission.
- Integrated free-floating transmission drive unit allows the use of a normal cardan shaft to connect the mower to the tractor.
- Different types of tractor hitching frames to make them compatible with all the tractors on the market.
- Central articulated joint for bar oscillation of +/- 5° and perfect adaptation to the profile of the soil. A pin makes it possible to lock it during road transfer.
- Hydraulic displacement (optional), to improve load distribution when operating on slopes.
- Synthetic fabric surfaces for maximum lightness.
- Side protections are reclining to reduce the overall size of the machine during travel.
Cutting unit.
- Cutter bar with gears in oil bath protected by wear-resistant skids and baffles in the blade overlap zones.
- Disc-holding flanges with safety pins to protect internal parts in case of strong bumps of the discs against stones or obstacles.
- Mud scraper discs, made of special steel, equipped with cleaning flaps.
- Conveyor cones, mounted on the first and last disc, to facilitate swathing of the cut grass.
