Single-action reciprocating cutter bar | 20\u201350 HP tractor compatible | Built for natural grassland & forage hay<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The 9GD-2.5 is a trailed Single-Action Cutter Bar mower built around a simple, dependable principle: a reciprocating blade with 34 individual cutting elements running across a 2.5 m bar. It’s pulled by tractors as small as 15 kW (20 HP) and works at 6\u201310 km\/h, clearing 2\u20133 hectares per hour \u2014 sized for small-to-medium hay producers, contract mowers, and grassland operators who need a Low maintenance sickle mower for small farms without the price tag of disc-rotary equipment.<\/p>\n

Where it differs from competing Pull-behind Sickle Mowers is the hydraulic cutter-bar lift. The operator raises the bar from inside the cab \u2014 for headland turns, road transport, or to clear obstacles \u2014 without leaving the tractor seat. Combined with single-operator setup and only 490 kg structural weight, it cuts setup time and fatigue across long workdays.<\/p>\n

The 9GD-2.5 is built to the Chinese national standard GB\/T 10940-2008<\/strong> for reciprocating mowers and carries the official Agricultural Machinery Test Certificate. Designed for natural meadows, planted forage, alfalfa, and grass-family hay \u2014 not recommended for paddy fields, marshland, wooded plots, or stony\/tussocky terrain where reciprocating cutter bars are vulnerable to damage. Honest specifications, honest field range.<\/p>\n

Key Features of the 9GD-2.5 Trailed Sickle Mower<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
01<\/div>\n
\n

Hydraulic Cutter-Bar Lift System<\/h3>\n

The cutter bar raises and lowers via tractor hydraulics \u2014 the operator never has to leave the cab to clear a fence line, cross a ditch, or transition between fields. This single feature is what separates the 9GD-2.5 trailed sickle mower from older mechanical-lift sickle mowers still common in the budget segment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
02<\/div>\n
\n

34-Blade Single-Action Cutter Bar<\/h3>\n

Thirty-four reciprocating blades shear the crop in a single forward stroke \u2014 clean cuts on stems up to about 12 mm thick with a stubble height adjustable from 50 to 70 mm. Conforms to GB\/T 10940-2008 for reciprocating mowers, the Chinese national standard.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
03<\/div>\n
\n

Low Power Demand: 15\u201335 kW (20\u201350 HP)<\/h3>\n

Most disc mower-conditioners require 80 HP or more. The 9GD-2.5 runs from 20 HP, which means a typical small-farm tractor \u2014 the kind already on the property \u2014 can pull it. No equipment upgrade, no second tractor, no extra fuel cost.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
04<\/div>\n
\n

Upgraded Heavy-Duty Reciprocating Mower for Tractors<\/h3>\n

The frame, drive housing, and pitman arm have been reinforced over the previous generation to handle longer continuous workdays. Bearings are sealed, the drive shaft is chrome-plated, and wear plates on the cutter bar are field-replaceable in under 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
05<\/div>\n
\n

Mechanically Simple \u2014 Lower Maintenance<\/h3>\n

Reciprocating sickle bars have far fewer moving parts than disc rotary cutterbars: no individual disc bearings, no gear-driven cutter housing. Routine maintenance is essentially blade sharpening, grease points, and pitman replacement \u2014 work any field mechanic can handle.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
06<\/div>\n
\n

Single-Operator, Trailed Configuration<\/h3>\n

Pull-behind hookup with standard drawbar \u2014 one operator drives, hitches, mows, and unhitches. No mounting or 3-point lift system to wrestle with. Production rate of 2\u20133 ha\/h means a 10-hectare grassland is finished in roughly 4 hours.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Where the Trailed Sickle Mower Performs Best<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n

The 9GD-2.5 trailed sickle mower is purpose-built for grassland and forage mowing on small-to-medium farms. It’s not a one-size-fits-all machine \u2014 and being honest about that is part of why operators trust it.<\/p>\n
