Whether it’s for an everyday farmer or a busy contractor, Samasz Mowers has a mowing option to suit everyone.
Built in Poland and imported to Australia by Colac Ag, the Samasz disc mower range is designed to help farmers get the most out of their fodder crops.
Samasz says its disc mower range is engineered to cause no turf damage, helping ensure animals get the maximal amount of value from the harvested fodder.
For everyday farmers in Australia, the most popular models are in the KDT series, with more than 10,000 working on paddocks across the world.
With eight discs across a working width of 2.6–3.4m, the KDT 340 and KDT 341 have a swath width of 1.4–2m and 2.3–2.8m respectively, and both with a working capacity of 3–4 hectares per hour.

The mowers offer stapless regulation of cutting height – from 4.5cm to 7cm – while optional topping plates can increase the cutting height to up to 12cm.
The mowers are built for operator-friendly use, with automatic locking and hydraulic lifting for headlands as well as adjustable lower hitch pins for easier attachment to various tractor types.
The KDT 341 comes with options of a double outer rubber swath guide and a two-swath cutterbar configuration assembled by the manufacturer, while both can also come with a cutting disc with instep.
The mowers include roller or flail conditioner and transporter conveyor options that can bring the grass into one windrow.
For contractors, Samasz’s MegaCut KDD 861 and KDD 941 double disc mower conditioners boast many of the same features with regard to cutting height and operator friendliness.
However the units are able to handle a much wider area, with the KDD 861 boasting a working width of 8.6m thanks to two mower heads with a swath width of between 1.9–2.3m that enable it to cover about 10ha/h.
The KDD 941 has a working width of 9.4m, with twin mower heads able to reach 2.3–2.7m wide, enabling the unit to cover about 11ha/h.
The units are equipped with 14 discs and 16 discs respectively and also come with Kennfix hydraulic connectors, a central suspension system, four support legs and a ground pressure relief system.
Optional tine conditioning, rubber conditioning roller or steel on steel conditioning rollers are also available on the units.
