some thoughts Explanation: I cannot give you a validated translation. But I think this is a curtain or blanket around a seeder or spreader, which prevents the product (seeds) from being flung out too far. I hope this helps a little. |

swath curtain Explanation: I translate operating manuals for Claas, and this is what they call it. It is the rubberized canvas curtain that prevents the forage flying e.g. beyond the edge of the field as the Wirbelwender (tedder or windrower) goes over the mown field. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 days 19 hrs 36 mins (2005-05-17 07:22:22 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- References for Alexander: www.millerprofarm.com/millerrakes1.html www.pottinger-us.com/eurotop601.htm www.pottingercanada.com/eurotop801multi.htm The \"Grenzstreutuch\" is exactly the same piece of hardware that is more commonly known as a \"Schwadtuch\". Normally, it serves to make a nice neat windrow, but in the above context, it also prevents the hay being flung beyond the field edge, i.e. the swath is made exactly at the edge of the field. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 days 19 hrs 44 mins (2005-05-17 07:30:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- BTW the context above is a \"Wirbelwender\", which is a rotary rake in English. |
