Full-Length Upper Cross Auger
A performance option worth considering for anyone harvesting big bushy, high-volume crops, like canola (rapeseed), peas, and mustard, is the Upper Cross Auger. The auger keeps bushy crops on the draper as they move to the center of the header, where twin pitch flighting actively and aggressively drives the crop down onto the feed auger. This option runs the full length of the header and is available on all sizes of the FD2 FlexDraper®.

Aluminum Components
From a glance, the most noticeable design cue on the FD2 is the addition of aluminum components. Aluminum features include reel endshields, reel sectors, and backsheets. But these components aren’t just for looking good; they help reduce the overall weight of the header, improving efficiency without compromising strength.
Durability
The MacDon brand always has and always will stand for reliability; that’s what makes MacDon the preferred choice of more custom harvesters and high-volume operations around the world. Engineering rock-solid products is how we ensure this reliability, and the FD2 carries that tradition forward. The FD2 boasts an all-new frame that features a super structured five-sided back tube. This solid backbone creates a durable platform to handle the increased capacity needs from 50 inch deep drapers+.
