[QUOTE="Nithsdale, post: 8142112, member: 17508"] We've never touched the clutch on our Krone. I've had it go/slip if I proper boke it solid trying to finish points - running it on 95-135hp tractors. Should say, it doesn't have a conditioner I like that it's shaft driven, it's smoother and saps less power than the Malone (belts) - The Malone pulls back the 135hp on (very) steep hills whereas it doesn't notice the Krone. And the Malone sits stupidly low to the ground in transport position - you can hit/bang the belt cover off the ground going I've a rough bit if you don't lift the mower on the arms. Even lifted, it's still low... which means you've to reset the height every field you go into. The Krone you set the arms then never touch them again. Haven't used the topping skids on either, we have an old topper for the job We used to run trailed WM250 Class drum mowers 😍 had 2 for a short while, but the Krone disc and now Malone are more productive machines IMO [/QUOTE]
