2024 MacDon PW8 Series

PW8 Series Pick-up Header

Our engineers worked hard to make the PW8 as user friendly as possible, from easy installation to time saving innovations, it all adds up to harvesting performance you can count on.

Features may include:

Serious pick-up capacity in any crop condition

A strengthened auger tube and robust chain drive allow the PW8 to easily handle high capacity loads. Both draper decks are run independently by hydraulic motors. The drapers are kept on track by MacDon’s patented V-guide roller groove tracking system. Together, these systems allow the PW8 to process the heaviest swaths with ease.

On-the-go control

The PW8 works with the combine’s Automatic Header Height and Lateral Tilt System.

Simple Adjustments

A simple draper tensioning system, easy to see draper tension indicators, and common all metric hardware allow adjustments to be made in a flash.

Drop-and-Go Float Performance

Our simple and effective spring-over-shock floatation system provides a ground following 45.7 cm (18”) of wheel float, and requires no adjustment during operation or lockout during transport. Float indicator numbers are clearly visible on both sides of the machine, letting you know the PW8 is operating at an optimal float position.

Great Seed RETENTION

Tight draper connectors and seals, along with a deep overlap of front and rear draper decks ensure that more seed is making its way into the combine for better yields.

Easy Maintenance

Five 100 hour grease points make for quick and easy maintenance of this machine.
