Description

The Vermeer CM295 Combination Mower is a high-capacity mower conditioner designed for efficient forage harvesting and premium cutting performance. Its gear-bed cutter bar uses 16 discs and 32 reversible blades, while the intermeshing rubber roller conditioner helps process cut forage for controlled windrow formation. With a 29.3 ft cutting width and 32 ft working width, the CM295 is suited to large-scale hay and forage operations. When paired with a Vermeer FM110 front mower, it forms the stated triple-mower configuration with a 29.8 ft working width. Hydraulic suspension, cutter-bar protection, and durable Hardox steel components support dependable operation in demanding field conditions.

Efficient Cutting and Conditioning

The CM295 combines a robust cutter bar with an intermeshing rubber roller conditioner driven by three V-belts. The conditioner has a 105 in width, 8.9 in rollers, and a roller speed of 750 rpm. Its windrow width can be adjusted from 44 to 91 in, allowing the operator to set the forage layout according to harvesting requirements.

The cutter bar is built with 4-mm specially shaped pods designed to support rapid forage flow. Abrasion-resistant Hardox steel pods and wear skids help protect key working components, while the cutter-bar breakaway system provides additional protection when encountering field obstacles. A hydraulic suspension system supports ground adaptation, helping the mower follow field contours during operation.
