And you'll find there's no power loss due to side draft on hillsides or on the level. You get increased capacity because larger diameter 44-inch reel is less affected by changing crop conditions. And, the unique position of the reel bats holds the crop flat so it feeds through the conditioning rolls, without hesitation What's more, controlled platform float and self-compensating roll pressure lets you move from field to field, crop to crop and rarely ever readjust the 990.
