Features may include:

MacDon D2 Series Combine Headers deliver all the best performance and innovation of the FD2 FlexDraper®, in a rigid platform. The D2 boasts an all-new frame that features a super structured five-sided back tube. This solid backbone is ready to handle up to 20% increased capacity from an ultra-deep 50-inch+ draper deck. And that draper gets filled up a lot quicker thanks to MacDon's ClearCut™ High-Speed Cutting System. Wrap it all up with MacDon's rock-solid reliability, and the D2 gets you more from every acre.

The D2 gets instant float response with MacDon's Active Float System. Integrated but independent of the combine's auto header height control, this simple mechanical system supports up to 97% of the header's weight, allowing the D2 to float over ground fluctuations effortlessly. In addition, this instant float response lets the D2 cut close to the ground without pushing dirt, delivering a clean, close, even cut every time.

MacDon's ClearCut™ High-Speed Cutting System delivers clean cutting at up to 30% faster speeds. This high-speed system is delivered with two unique knife guards, more power from MacDon's improved knife drive and over 25% more cutting surface from an increased knife and guard geometry. Altogether, these improvements allow the D2 to provide a smooth, clean, even cut every time.

ClearCut™ Pointed Knife Guards are multi-purpose knife guards designed to glide along the surface at high cutting speeds for a clean, even cut every time.

This guard design gets the knife as close to the ground as possible while still protecting the blade from damaging debris in the field. ClearCut™ PlugFree Knife Guards resist plugging even in the nastiest conditions providing the closest, cleanest possible shave of the ground.

MacDon ClearCut™ knife sections feature over 25% more cutting surface thanks to a longer blade and improved geometry. So what does that mean for you? It means faster, cleaner cut quality at higher ground speeds.

Another great advantage of this new cutting system is the redesigned hardware. Fitted bolts make in-field knife section replacement quick and easy.

MacDon's improved knife drive satisfies your need for speed, providing more torque to power through the most challenging cutting conditions. Featuring a larger output shaft, a flywheel for smooth operation, and a direct hydraulic drive, it's the heart of MacDon's ClearCut™ High-Speed Cutting System.

On the D2, MacDon's low-profile cutterbar improves on an already good thing; the knife's distance to the draper is shorter, meaning less chance of seed loss at the cutterbar. In addition, in-cab header tilt control adjusts the knife angle to match any harvest condition, and the ultra-smooth ground-facing surface of the cutterbar helps it glide along the ground for a smooth close shave every time.

With today's modern combines, it's all about more capacity, and with the D2, you get up to 20% more of it. This serious capacity boost comes from an ultra-deep deck featuring 50-inch deep drapers. These huge drapers perform with ease, cleanly laying down the biggest bushiest high-volume crops, keeping those big combines running smoothly with consistent heads-first feeding.
