Features May Include: 

SENSIDRIVE™ GROUND DRIVE SYSTEM

EFFORTLESS PRODUCTIVITY WITH THE NEW SENSIDRIVE™ GROUND DRIVE SYSTEM

• To cut more acres in a day, Speedrower® PLUS windrowers are easy to drive and operate at fast speeds. The SensiDrive™ ground drive system uses drive-by-wire technology to control ground drive pumps and wheel motors, resulting in impressive power in tough conditions and straight mowing with less steering fatigue. Optimal drivability also leads to speeds of up to 20 mph (32 kph) in-field and 30 mph (48 kph) on-road – the fastest in the industry and 30% faster than prior Speedrowers.

MORE GROUND DRIVE POWER IN THE TOUGHEST CONDITIONS

• Speedrower® PLUS windrowers deliver power in the toughest conditions, like on steep hills. In fact, the high-speed transport version of the Speedrower 220 PLUS and 260 PLUS boasts nearly double the previous generation’s hill climbing ability, with over 11,000 lb. ft. of torque at the drive wheels and a 20% hill-climbing improvement. Even more impressive is the SensiDrive™ ground drive system, which compensates by automatically adjusting the pump and wheel motors to provide ample drive torque while eliminating system over-pressurization.

DEPENDABILITY IS MEASURED OVER THOUSANDS OF ACRES

• Commercial dependability is measured over thousands of acres. Therefore, the quality of every component makes the difference. That’s why New Holland partnered with Danfoss®, a leading global producer of hydraulic drive pumps, motors, and hydrostatic ground drive solutions. New Holland went a step further and developed a robust main gearbox paired with heavy-duty Dana® brand planetary final drive gearboxes to power these windrowers. The result is design reliability that you can depend on to deliver productivity, acre after acre.

ENGINE

TRIED AND PROVEN ENGINE EMISSION SOLUTIONS

• Powering all three models are ECOBlue™ Hi-eSCR (High-Efficiency Selective Catalytic Reduction) engines developed by Fiat Powertrain (FPT) Industrial. These engines offer clean, reliable power and performance with impressive fuel efficiency and torque.

SELECTIVE CATALYTIC REDUCTION (SCR) PROCESS

• Exhaust gases leave turbo outlet and travel through the Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) canister, where precise amounts of DEF are injected into the exhaust stream
• DEF quickly vaporizes and converts to ammonia and carbon dioxide (the basic elements of DEF)
• Exhaust, carbon dioxide and ammonia pass into the SCR chamber
• In the SCR canister, carbon dioxide is neutralized, and the ammonia catalytically reacts to NOx
• After the catalytic reaction, the harmless nitrogen vapor and water vapor are released through the exhaust pipe to the atmosphere

STYLE MEETS FUNCTION

• Productivity requires keeping both you and the windrower cool. On the rear of the machine, the iconic New Holland leaf logo has been incorporated into the rotary screen protective cover. However, this cooling system features updates beyond aesthetics – it’s designed for optimal heat exchange to maintain engine and hydraulic cooling efficiency. While competitive designs use a hydraulically-driven cooling fan that consumes horsepower and varies rotary screen suction and air flow, the Speedrower® PLUS has a mechanical-driven 42-inch fan that runs continuously to provide uninterrupted air flow and nonstop rotary screen cleaning.

CAB ＆ CONTROLS

YOU WON’T NEED TO BE IN YOUR EASY CHAIR TO RELAX

• The Speedrower® PLUS Series is built with the comfort you need to help you mow longer. To make climbing into the cab easier, the steps and entry platform were redesigned. The standard and deluxe cab packages offer cloth-covered, air-ride suspension seats, while the premium cab package comes with luxurious leather-covered, high-back seats with heat and cooling ventilation. Adjustments to tailor the operating experience don’t stop there. The three-way adjustable, telescopic steering wheel tilts at both floor and knee level and the right-hand seat-mounted console moves along with the seat. Surrounding you is 73 square feet of curved, tinted glass for optimal visibility, even quieter noise levels, and a high-capacity air conditioning and heating system that maintains your designated temperature.

COMFORT RIDE™ CAB SUSPENSION

• Across even the roughest fields, Comfort Ride cab suspension is optimized for fast speeds. The four-point suspension system includes new front isolation mounts and updated coil springs over the shocks at the rear to cushion the entire cab.

INTUITIVE INTELLIVIEW™ IV DISPLAY

• All Speedrower® PLUS windrowers are equipped with a 10.4-inch (264 mm) IntelliView IV color display. Conveniently located on the right-hand console to provide best-in-class visibility, this touchscreen display makes operation simple with customizable run screens and fully-integrated factory-installed IntelliSteer™ auto guidance.

TAKE COMMAND WITH THE COMMANDGRIP™ MULTIFUNCTION HANDLE

• The comfortable, easy-to-use CommandGrip multifunction handle puts precision control at your fingertips. This handle’s ergonomic design delivers a comfortable feel and places the most-frequently used controls, like forward and reverse, header and reel position, headland management, and auto-guidance engagement right where you need them.

TERRAGLIDE™ REAR AXLE SUSPENSION

• The Terraglide air-ride rear axle provides the most comfortable ride possible in the roughest field conditions. Compared to prior models, the trailing arm design reduces forces felt in the cab by up to 50%. This axle features a four-link, solid beam design that stabilizes cab pitching during fast turns and rapid speed changes. Adjustments are simple with the single central airbag and a height measurement notch on the frame.

PRECISION TECHNOLOGY

THE LATEST AND STRAIGHTEST

• Speedrower® PLUS windrowers can incorporate the latest precision technology, keeping you on a straight path to increased productivity. At the touch of a button, you can increase efficiency and comfort, while decreasing operating costs and improving your bottom line.

INTELLISTEER™ GUIDANCE – FACTORY-INSTALLED AND FACTORY-TESTED

• For maximum productivity, choose the factory-installed and tested IntelliSteer automatic steering system. IntelliSteer is fully-integrated to provide you with complete steering control at the touch of a button, which means you can focus more on mowing and less on operating the machine. With the SensiDrive™ electrohydraulic ground drive system, performance, response, and accuracy have significantly improved compared to previous models. As a result, these windrowers are faster, easier to operate, and more efficient. All models are IntelliSteer-ready and the system works directly with the IntelliView™ IV display as the single interface without the need for a second monitor.

NEW HOLLAND FIELDOPS™ FARM MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

• To meet the remote operation management and technology needs of customers like you, New Holland developed the New Holland FieldOps™ farm management system to put you in control of your farm from anywhere. Through integrated solutions that link farm, fleet, and data, New Holland FieldOps™ helps you optimize your time by providing the information you need to make informed agronomic decisions. With your phone or tablet, you can see the location of your Speedrower® PLUS, as well as view operating parameters and efficiency, receive notifications, monitor maintenance and more.

MYNEWHOLLAND.COM

• This main entry point links you directly to New Holland FieldOps™ and other New Holland portals, plus houses valuable information, such as equipment literature and seasonal promotions. For enhanced support, like requesting upgrades and subscription activations/renewals, consider granting your dealership access to your fleet.

INTELLICRUISE™ AUTOMATION

• Precision technology can help make a good operator even better and that’s exactly what the IntelliCruise automation system does. With two unique driving modes, IntelliCruise optimizes the windrower for productivity or economy. With the Power Cruise Mode active, you can select a maximum forward speed. As conditions change and the engine load fluctuates, the ground speed will be adjusted to ensure disc speed and header power are maintained. An industry exclusive, the Eco Cruise Mode allows you to control the ground speed and set the desired engine speed range. In light to medium crops, this mode lowers engine speed while ground speed remains constant to reduce noise and fuel consumption. When heavier crop is encountered, engine speed is automatically increased, while ground speed remains constant.

HEADLAND MANAGEMENT AUTOMATION

• Repetitive activities increase your fatigue and decrease your productivity. When long days of cutting turn into nights, that means fewer acres mowed per hour. Headland Management Automation makes headland turns effortless and enhances pass-to-pass accuracy. With the simple push of the dedicated button, this customizable precision solution controls ground speed, header lift, and even merger lift to reduce fatigue and maintain high productivity.

DURAMERGER™ 419 PLUS MERGER ATTACHMENT

MERGING YOUR PRODUCTIVITY

• Increase your harvesting efficiency and productivity by cutting and merging simultaneously with the DuraMerger™ 419 PLUS merger attachment. This attachment saves you time and slashes fuel use to reduce your overall harvesting costs. The long deck design allows you to combine two or three windrows, improving forage harvesting efficiency for maximum return on investment.

INTEGRATION WITH THE COMMANDGRIP™ HANDLE FOR SIMPLE CONTROL
The CommandGrip multifunction handle makes it simple to lift and lower the merger with the push of a button. Belt speed can also be adjusted to fine-tune material discharge and place windrows exactly the way you want.

• A – Raise deck
• B – Lower deck
• C – Increase belt speed
• D – Decrease belt speed

MERGE TWO OR THREE WINDROWS, OR NONE

• The DuraMerger™ 419 PLUS features a long merging deck that improves crop placement and allows you to combine up to three windrows. Merge up to 48-feet of heavy forage crops with the Durabine™ 416 PLUS in three passes or combine two swaths with the Durabine 419 PLUS to put 38-feet of crop into a single windrow. When fully lowered, the merger rides only a few inches above the ground to catch the entire windrow. When encountering an obstruction, the robust design allows the merger to float up and over, then automatically return to its original position. It is also easy to switch between forming a single windrow and merging multiple windrows. When the merger is not needed, it tucks out of the way under the windrower’s frame. With 28 inches of raised clearance, the chances of catching a headland windrow or a piece of uneven terrain are minimized.
