Disc and drum mowers and mower-conditioners – Direct-cut headers
Mower carried at the center of gravity and laterally guided by links. It adapts precisely to the ground profile.
Active supporting frame and oscillating arms that guide the cutter bar perfectly over any unevenness of the terrain.
The “Razor Cut” cutting unit ensures a clean and precise cut even in the most difficult forage crops, with cutting-height adjustment and crop deposition either spread out or in a swath, depending on the disc rotation.
The double universal joint ensures a torsion-free connection between the angle gearbox and the cutter bar.
Crank handle allowing easy adjustment of the cutting height.
During transport, the Swing is positioned centrally behind the tractor. Less than 3.00 m on the road, wide ground clearance, and approved speed are the prerequisites for reaching the field quickly and safely.
Unlimited maneuverability even during the most complex maneuvers, thanks to the side drawbar, hydraulically opening frame, and curved rocker arm. The mower follows the terrain with wide pendulum oscillations and allows smooth, safe turns without interrupting work.
Possibility to vary PTO speed simply by rotating the main gearbox.

The advanced spring suspension of the bar has been designed to ensure constant ground pressure across the entire working width, providing even more precise guidance along field edges and total protection of the grass sward. To optimize field dynamics, Swing mowers are supported directly at their center of gravity and laterally guided by robust reaction arms. This sophisticated geometric combination allows the machine to adapt with absolute precision to every hollow or roughness in the terrain, eliminating the risk of crop contamination and preserving soil integrity: the essential prerequisite for obtaining clean, very high-quality forage even in the most demanding working conditions.
Marangon trailed mowers in “Pull” configuration are designed to deliver excellent performance even on the most uneven terrain. Both on flat ground and in hilly areas, Swing models stand out for their extraordinary freedom of movement and wide range of travel, allowing the cutting unit to move smoothly both rearward and upward. The combined action of the active supporting frame and oscillating arms guides the cutter bar with millimetric precision over any roughness in the ground, ensuring immediate responsiveness: the bar lifts instantly when encountering bumps and lowers again, following the ground profile as it descends. By performing this almost vertical movement, the system minimizes PTO shaft sliding and dynamic loads on the transmission, resulting in a drastic reduction in wear and impeccable cutting consistency.
The exclusive Pull-type attachment ensures perfect three-dimensional adaptation to the terrain, offering wide movement ranges even on the roughest surfaces. Thanks to the integration of advanced spherical joints in the oscillating arms of the bar, the system provides the Swing mower with exceptional transverse oscillation of +/- 16°. This extraordinary lateral flexibility allows the machine to instantly follow slopes and changes in ground inclination, keeping the entire bar always parallel to the terrain to ensure a perfectly uniform cut and absolute protection of the grass sward.
Our mowers stand out on the market for their extraordinary smooth running and extremely regular travel. Dynamic drive is provided directly from the first mowing disc, optimizing power flow. A double universal joint ensures a robust, completely torsion-free connection between the angle gearbox and the cutter bar, minimizing vibrations. In addition, to protect the entire kinematics of both tractor and machine, a safety freewheel is integrated as standard into the drive system of all models.
To maximize operating efficiency and simplify field operations, the system is equipped with a practical crank handle that allows the cutting height to be adjusted extremely smoothly, precisely, and effortlessly. An intuitive graduated reading ring constantly informs the operator of the set height, ensuring immediate visual control directly from the working position. This feature allows the machine to be adapted in just a few seconds to different forage and ground conditions, optimizing setup times and always ensuring maximum operating precision.
During road transfers, the Swing mower is positioned perfectly centrally behind the tractor, optimizing the stability and weight distribution of the working unit. A transport width of less than 3.00 meters, wide ground clearance to easily overcome bumps or obstacles, and approved transfer speed are the ideal prerequisites for reaching every field quickly, with maximum agility and in total safety.
The construction architecture based on the side drawbar and pivoting angle gearbox allows mowing even at extreme geometric angles, optimizing the cleaning of field edges. The robust two-point hitch frame allows quick and stable connection to the tractor lift arms. During operation, the standard wide-angle PTO shaft — combined with the hydraulic opening and closing of the frame — allows the machine to work at any inclination and turn easily without interrupting the power flow. Maximum operating safety is guaranteed by an integrated lock valve that ensures firm and stable stopping in the selected final position. In addition, the exclusive curved rocker arm allows wide pendulum oscillations of up to +/- 30°, enabling the tractor and mower to compensate for major ground irregularities completely independently, while also ensuring an unlimited steering angle for smooth and immediate maneuvers.
Designed to offer maximum operating compatibility, the machine adapts extremely easily to any tractor model. Thanks to an intelligent engineering solution, the PTO speed can in fact be varied simply by quickly rotating the main angle gearbox. This feature allows the mower to be configured according to the technical specifications of the tractor in use, optimizing fuel consumption and always ensuring maximum mechanical efficiency in the field.

“RAZOR CUT” CUTTING UNIT: QUALITY MADE BY MARANGON The high-performance cutting unit, deliberately designed with a compact, wedge-shaped profile to offer a wide range of cutting-height adjustment options and allow the best penetration into the most difficult forage crops, always ensuring an optimal and clean cut.
CLEAN CUT TECHNOLOGY
Stripe-free cutting thanks to the optimal overlap of the blade trajectories.
“FIRST AID KIT” MAIN SUPPORT
The main support assembly, consisting of a single block fixed with six screws, allows quick, individual, and simple inspection of the gearbox.
COVER WITH INTEGRATED “C” REINFORCEMENT The thick cover with integrated “C” reinforcement, unique in its kind, eliminates flexing of the cutting unit in order to prevent twisting of the moving components.
ROUND DISC
WEAR PLATES
The cutting unit is equipped as standard with a series of wear-resistant boron steel skids, designed to provide the gear housing with maximum protection against any risk of damage in the field. The rounded reinforcements positioned between the skids protect the bar effectively, while the profiling on the underside prevents material build-up, allowing the mown crop to flow without interruption.
ADDITIONAL WEAR PLATES
The additional wear plate kit can be fitted directly at the factory on request, or it can be installed easily and quickly by the user at a later stage, aftermarket, after purchasing the MARANGON mower. Stamped and made of wear-resistant boron steel, these elements provide additional protection for the cutting unit.
“TOPPING SKIDS”
Raising plate that allows the cutting height to be increased in order to perform so-called “Topping”, cutting only the upper part of the plant. This operation stops the apical growth of the crop, stimulating the development of the lower part; livestock entering the pasture afterwards will therefore find a much richer and more nutritious crop.
QUICK BLADE CHANGE
Quick-change system for fast blade replacement using the dedicated key, specifically designed to minimize downtime in the field and increase hourly productivity.
Available for all Marangon disc mowers and mower-conditioners.
LOWER DISC SCRAPERS
