Features

Parallel Arm Geometry This feature enables the operator to adjust the reach of the machines arms, without the need to continuously adjust the 'lift' service in order to compensate for the change in head pivot height - as would be the case with conventional arm geometry.
Power Slew
Power Slew is available on Power Arms from PA50 and upwards and enables the arm to rotate 100° backwards from working position. (this may vary depending on model) Power slew not only enables the arms to fold in to a compact transport position, it also gives the operator the ability to cut behind them, ideal for cutting out corners in hedge rows.
Safety Breakaway
All McConnel Power Arms incorporate a safety breakaway system that provides protection to the Power Arm and cutting attachment. Non Power Slew models use a mechanical system which allows the dipper arm to break back when the arms or cutting attachment comes into contact with a foreign object. Power slew models work in the same principle but break back movement comes via the slew ram.
Orbitor Head Bracket
McConnel orbitor head bracket fits between the cutting attachment and the dipper arm giving an extra angle of movement. This enables the Power Arm to cut within the width of the tractor, ideal when working in narrow lanes (only applicable with power slew models). The Orbitor head bracket is powered by a single ram which is incorporated into the bracket for protection.
Easy Drive System (EDS)
The patented Easy Drive System (EDS) provides hands-free cruise control operation at much greater speeds, increasing both efficiency and safety.
