What the Novacat A10 is used for
The Novacat A10 is used by contractors and larger grassland farms mowing grass for silage, haylage and hay. Combined with a 3 m front mower, it gives a wide working width while retaining a tractor-based front-and-rear arrangement suitable for productive forage campaigns.
It is PTO driven and intended for a higher-horsepower tractor. Buyers should consider the whole combination, including the front mower, field access and whether its width makes sense for their acreage and transport routes.
Why the Pöttinger Novacat A10 stands out
The A10's strength is a front-and-rear mowing combination reaching 8.80 to 9.56 m with a 3 m front mower. ED tine and RCB roller conditioner options allow crop-specific choice. It offers contractor-style output from a tractor combination, but matching the front mower and tractor correctly is central to its usefulness.
Buying a used Pöttinger Novacat A10
Inspect the rear mower units and front-mower interfaces for oil leaks, damaged discs, worn blades and impact repairs. Test folding and lifting hydraulics, then inspect PTO shafts, guards, linkage points, hoses and hinges. Assess ED tine or RCB roller condition, tyre wear, corrosion and panel damage, and verify serial details and claimed configuration. Confirm figures and originality against TractorData.com and club records; values vary by condition, so check current listings rather than a fixed price.
