A device, which is movable over ground in a direction of travel, where the device is equipped with at least one pick-up mechanism for picking up a product from the ground, as well as at least one conveyor belt arranged to convey the picked up material in at least one direction extending sidewards with respect to the direction of travel, and to deposit said material on the ground, wherein the pick-up comprises at least one pick-up element configured to pick up product from the ground by means of rotation about an axis extending substantially parallel with respect to the conveying direction of conveyor belt, wherein the device is equipped with a guiding unit forming an ascending ramp for the product, the guiding unit being arranged to move the picked up product towards the conveyor belt at an angle of at least 20 degrees with respect to a horizontal plane. A self-propelled agricultural machine and a trailed agricultural machine being equipped with such a device.

A crop windrow monitoring system includes an image sensor positioned to include a field of view facing a rearward direction of a power unit, and a visual monitor operable to display an image. A computing device is operable to determine an intended direction of movement of the power unit. The image is displayed on the visual monitor in a first mode having a first magnification when the intended direction of movement includes the rearward direction. The image is displayed on the visual monitor in a second mode having a second magnification and overlaid with indicia indicating a width of the windrow when the intended direction of movement includes the forward direction. The second magnification may be larger than the first magnification.

A swath lifter includes a rotor over which the crop is carried for aeration with the rotor driven in a direction so that an underside of the rotor adjacent the ground is driven opposite to the direction of movement. The rotor carries rows of tines at angularly spaced positions around the rotor each associated with a flexible strip of a resilient material located in front of the tines and covering an inner part of the tines with the outer part exposed so that, as the rotor rotates forwardly relative to the ground, the strip is presented to the swath on the ground in advance of the tines to avoid contact of the inner portion of the tines with the crop material at the top of the swath while the exposed outer ends of the tines operate on the wetter part of the swath at the ground.

A tine device for an impeller apparatus is disclosed. The tine device comprises at least one tine element having a first end configured to be rotatably coupled to a central rotor of the impeller apparatus. The tine element additionally comprises a second end positioned on a first side of a radial line extending through the first end, and a curved portion located on an opposite second side of the radial line between the first and second ends.

A lateral transport system for a harvester including a chassis, first and second ground wheels coupled to the chassis, and a lateral transport assembly operably coupled to the chassis and operable between a transport operation mode and a stowed operation mode. A tongue is pivotally coupled to the chassis, a first suspension element is rotatable about a first axis and a second axis, a second suspension element is rotatable about the second axis, and a hydraulic actuation system is operably coupled to the tongue, the first suspension element, and the second suspension element. In the transport operation mode, hydraulic fluid is allowed to flow into the hydraulic actuation system to rotate the first suspension element about the first axis, and subsequently rotate the first and second suspension elements about the second axis.
