    Hedge cutting

    Recently seen a couple of videos on you tube with operator’s running Claas 3100 / 3200 front mowers and 3050 / 3150 rear mowers. I thought the 3050 was only available in 540pto and if so how are they operating the front at 1000 rpm? Any one have any experience operating this combination? Thanks
