It delivers a clean 2.5-metre swath at working speeds of 6 km\/h to 10 km\/h, reaching a productivity of 2.0 hm\u00b2 to 3.0 hm\u00b2 per hour. A single operator on the tractor seat handles the entire mowing cycle \u2014 no additional ground crew is required.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 16px 0;\">Designed for natural meadows and seeded forage plots, this pull-type rotary mower excels wherever terrain is firm and relatively clear of standing water. It is not recommended for paddy fields, waterlogged ground, dense forest understorey, or areas with heavy stone or tussock concentrations. The manufacturer tests and certifies this model against Chinese national standard GB\/T10940-2008 (Reciprocating Mowers) and holds an official <em>Agricultural Machinery Trial and Appraisal Certificate<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-546 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/balerhay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/9GD-2.5-Trailed-Single-Blade-Mower-1-300x223.webp\" alt=\"9GD-2.5 Trailed Single-Blade Mower (1)\" width=\"300\" height=\"223\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 24px 0;\">The cutter bar height is handled entirely by the tractor&#8217;s hydraulic circuit \u2014 no manual crank adjustment between passes. Combined with the compact 490 kg machine weight and a low matched-power threshold, this mower suits small-to-medium livestock farms sourcing their own hay rather than buying in commercial feed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 100%;

Farms and cooperatives across grassland regions \u2014 including the Canadian Prairies, northern pasture belts, and similar climates \u2014 find the <strong>PTO driven tow-behind rotary mower<\/strong> well suited to the following uses:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"margin: 0 0 20px 0; padding-left: 22px;\">\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"><strong>Natural meadow mowing:<\/strong> Native grassland that sees seasonal growth of 0.4 m to 1.0 m responds well to the reciprocating shear action \u2014 stems are cut rather than shredded, protecting the root mat from heat stress.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"><strong>Seeded forage plots:<\/strong> Alfalfa, timothy, bromegrass, and mixed legume-grass stands up to 1.2 m tall are handled cleanly at 6 km\/h to 8 km\/h.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"><strong>Pasture renovation:<\/strong> Where over-mature stands need cutting back before reseeding, the 50\u201370 mm stubble height provides a consistent baseline without scalping the topsoil.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"><strong>Rough hill terrain:<\/strong> Because the machine trails behind the tractor on its own wheels, it follows ground contours independently. Gentle slopes and undulating prairie are manageable; steep sidehills or heavily waterlogged ground are outside the machine&#8217;s design envelope.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"><strong>Livestock-supporting farms:<\/strong> Beef cattle, dairy, and sheep operations typically require 1.5 to 3.0 hm\u00b2 of hay per animal-unit per year.

The gearbox converts and distributes this input to drive the reciprocating cutter bar at the required blade frequency. The cast-iron housing is oil-bathed and sealed against dust and chaff ingress. Routine maintenance is limited to seasonal oil changes and drive-shaft joint inspection \u2014 both achievable with basic farm tools.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 15px;\">For compatible PTO drive shafts, cross-joint assemblies, and universal joint parts that connect your tractor to this mower&#8217;s input stub, see the <a style=\"color: #1a5276; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/driveshaftjoint.com\/drive-shafts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">agricultural drive shaft range at driveshaftjoint.com<\/a> \u2014 a useful reference for sourcing replacement or spare driveline components.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"flex: 1 1 300px;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 17px; font-weight: bold; color: #1a5276; margin: 0 0 8px 0;\">34-Section Horizontal Blade Bar<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 10px 0; font-size: 15px;\">The single cutter bar spans the full 2.5 m working width and carries 34 individual blade sections. Each blade section is replaceable independently, which keeps spare-parts cost proportional to actual wear rather than requiring a full bar swap. Blades are hardened to resist dulling in abrasive soil contact; typical edge life in normal meadow conditions is one to two full seasons before resharpening is needed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 15px;\">The reciprocating action differs from a disc-mower&#8217;s spinning discs: the blade bar moves back and forth laterally rather than rotating, which produces a scissor-type shear. This keeps energy demand low and makes the machine suitable for smaller tractors \u2014 the key reason the 9GD-2.5 can run on 15 kW while delivering a 2.5 m swath.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 style=\"font-family: 'Raleway','Open Sans',Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 24px; font-weight: bold; color: #1a5276; margin: 32px 0 14px 0; border-left: 5px solid #2ecc71; padding-left: 14px;\">Complete Your Haymaking Line-Up<\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 14px 0;\">The 9GD-2.5 is the first step in a two-pass or three-pass hay system.

This covers the majority of compact and utility tractors commonly used on small-to-medium livestock farms. The PTO must deliver 540 r\/min \u2014 the standard agricultural PTO speed for this class of equipment. Tractors below 15 kW risk overloading the drivetrain in heavy crop; tractors above 35 kW can be used but bring no additional cutting performance.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details style=\"border: 1px solid #d5e8d4; border-radius: 4px; margin: 0 0 10px 0; background-color: #ffffff;\">\n<summary style=\"padding: 14px 18px; font-weight: 600; cursor: pointer; color: #1a5276; font-size: 15px; list-style: none;\">Is the 9GD-2.5 suitable for a PTO driven tow-behind rotary mower application in Canada?<\/summary>\n<p style=\"padding: 4px 18px 16px 18px; margin: 0; font-size: 15px;\">Yes \u2014 provided ground conditions are firm and the area is clear of stones and standing water. Canadian prairie grassland, upland pastures, and seeded forage plots in the 20\u201350 hp tractor bracket are the ideal environment. Wetland areas, rocky outcrops, and heavily tussocked bush terrain are outside the design scope and should be avoided to prevent blade and gearbox damage.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details style=\"border: 1px solid #d5e8d4; border-radius: 4px; margin: 0 0 10px 0; background-color: #ffffff;\">\n<summary style=\"padding: 14px 18px; font-weight: 600; cursor: pointer; color: #1a5276; font-size: 15px; list-style: none;\">How does the reciprocating blade system compare to a disc mower?<\/summary>\n<p style=\"padding: 4px 18px 16px 18px; margin: 0; font-size: 15px;\">A reciprocating (sickle-bar) cutter bar moves blades back and forth in a lateral shear motion. Energy demand per metre of cut is lower than for spinning disc mowers, which is why the 9GD-2.5 can work on 15 kW tractors where a comparable-width disc mower typically requires 30 kW or more. The trade-off is that reciprocating bars are more sensitive to stone contact and do not handle very dense, tangled growth as well as flail or disc designs.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details style=\"border: 1px solid #d5e8d4; border-radius: 4px; margin: 0 0 10px 0; background-color: #ffffff;\">\n<summary style=\"padding: 14px 18px; font-weight: 600; cursor: pointer; color: #1a5276; font-size: 15px; list-style: none;\">What is the cutting height and can it be adjusted?<\/summary>\n<p style=\"padding: 4px 18px 16px 18px; margin: 0; font-size: 15px;\">Average stubble height is 50 mm to 70 mm. The cutter bar is raised and lowered using the tractor&#8217;s existing hydraulic system \u2014 the operator adjusts height from the cab without leaving the seat. This hydraulic integration is one of the features that reduces per-hectare fatigue in multi-hour mowing shifts.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details style=\"border: 1px solid #d5e8d4; border-radius: 4px; margin: 0 0 10px 0; background-color: #ffffff;\">\n<summary style=\"padding: 14px 18px; font-weight: 600; cursor: pointer; color: #1a5276; font-size: 15px; list-style: none;\">Can wholesale pull-type rotary mower suppliers provide spare blade sections?<\/summary>\n<p style=\"padding: 4px 18px 16px 18px; margin: 0; font-size: 15px;\">Yes. The 34 blade sections on the cutter bar are individually replaceable, not sold as a complete bar assembly. Wholesale buyers and distributors can stock blade section kits independently of the machine itself.
