The New Holland 499, 488, and 472 series are powerful and efficient hay and forage equipment designed to meet the demands of modern farming operations. Known for their durability and performance, these models are ideal for farmers seeking reliable solutions for haymaking and forage harvesting.

One of the flagship features of the New Holland 499 is its innovative design, which combines advanced engineering with user-friendly operation. The 499 model is equipped with a heavy-duty, pivoting hitch that enhances maneuverability and ensures optimal cutting performance across varied terrains.

The 488, a 9-foot disc mower, features an innovative Quick-Fit blade system that allows for easy removal and replacement of blades, reducing downtime during maintenance. The machine's rugged construction and reliable performance make it a staple for farmers looking to maximize their hay production.

Another significant feature across these models is their modular design, which allows for easy customization based on specific farming needs. This adaptability is further enhanced by New Holland's patented SmartCut technology, which optimizes cutting performance by ensuring a consistent cutting height and better crop management.

All three models are designed with farmer comfort in mind, featuring ergonomic controls and intuitive dashboards that streamline operation. Additionally, their low maintenance requirements and robust construction mean fewer repairs and longer service life, allowing farmers to focus on productivity.

In summary, the New Holland 499, 488, and 472 series represent a blend of power, efficiency, and technological innovation. With features designed to enhance performance and ease of use, these models are well-suited for both small and large farming operations, ensuring high-quality hay and forage harvesting season after season.
