The "Champion" Hay Cutter. 



This Cutter is constructed on an entirely 

 new principle. The knife is composed of sec- 

 tion blades, similar to those of a mowing ma- 

 chine knife, made of the best tempered steel, 

 and fastened to the iron gate piece by means 

 of small bolts. They can be taken off and 

 sharpened, and put on again in a few minutes' 

 time, needing no adjusting, as each section 

 goes back in its place ; or, if a new one is 

 needed, it will go in the place of the old one 

 without any trouble, as they are interchange- 

 able. The iron gate is placed on the front 

 end of the feed box, and is connected with the 

 crank shaft by two wood pitmans. It has a 

 five-inch stroke, and the knife passes between 

 the cutting plate and an iron guard in front of 

 it, thus insuring a clean cut. It is turned by 

 a crank and as the section knife is the 

 easiest cutting knife known it runs very 

 light. It is a perfect self-feeder, the fodder being taken between two iron rolls, and is 

 held firmly while the knife passes down and through the fodder. The knife is then 

 lifted up, and while up and above the throat, the fodder is instantly pushed forward 

 by an ingenious device, while the knife is entirely out of the way. 



It cuts five different lengths of chaff, ranging from J<$ to 1% inches. The change 

 is made without taking off or putting on any extra gears. It can be effected in either 

 of two ways : one by raising or lowering the indicator which is fastened to the side of 

 one front leg by a thumb-screw ; the other, by lengthening or shortening the iron 

 pitman by a set-screw. The throat is lift inches wide, making the capacity greater 

 than any other Hand Cutter of the same price. 

 Capacity from lj^ to 2 bushels per minute.
