New Holland FP240

The New Holland FP240 Pull-Type Harvester stands out as a high-capacity and chop quality champion. Its performance is both robust and dependable, from the 1,000-rpm driveline gearbox to the solid cast iron spout base. Ensuring cutting performance remains sharp is effortless, thanks to integrated knife sharpeners and easily adjustable reversible shearbars. The harvester incorporates lightweight shielding and convenient flip-up feedrolls that provide easy access to essential components. Livestock protection is a top priority with the inclusion of the Metalert® III electronic metal detector. The harvester achieves smooth and efficient feeding with the help of four feedrolls, with the front feedrolls adeptly handling heavy materials and the rear feedrolls securing the crop for a precise and even cut. The impressive 12-knife cutterhead, equipped with full-width, spiral, hardened-alloy knives featuring tungsten edges, effortlessly moves through and uniformly chops a greater volume of crop. This results in top-quality feed production while minimizing power and fuel consumption. In summary, the FP240 Pull-Type Harvester by New Holland excels in delivering high-capacity performance, consistent chop quality, convenience, and efficient feeding, making it a top performer in its class.

New Holland is renowned for crafting rugged, high-capacity forage harvesters that are unmatched in the industry. Their best-selling line of pull-type models not only delivers the uniform chopping performance you seek but also upholds the exceptional reliability that New Holland is known for.

The key to achieving a consistently even chop lies in the smooth flow of crops through the forage harvester—a process that New Holland has mastered to perfection, enhancing the effectiveness of these forage harvesters.

Here are some notable features that ensure you stay at peak chopping efficiency:

Chop Quality: New Holland forage harvesters are celebrated for their exceptional chop quality, thanks to integrated features that simplify maintenance. Knife sharpening and shearbar adjustment are hassle-free, and the cutterhead can be reversed to ensure all knives maintain a true cutting edge.
Equipment and Livestock Protection: Debris like broken rake tines, sickle sections, or lost hitch pins can unexpectedly surface even in the cleanest fields. Large fragments may cause costly cutterhead damage, while smaller pieces can contaminate livestock feed and harm animals. To prevent these hazards, consider installing the Metalert® III electronic metal detector on your forage harvester.
Crop-Saving Headers: To keep up with the high-capacity demands of New Holland forage harvesters, selecting the appropriate crophead is crucial. All headers are PTO shaft-driven, simplifying hookup and removal. Shaft drive offers increased reliability and requires less maintenance compared to chain drives.

Don't forget to inquire about the option of adding a Processor to your harvester to further enhance its capabilities. New Holland's commitment to excellence in forage harvesting ensures that their equipment consistently delivers top-tier performance and reliability.
