Abstract
A mower includes a support structure on which are articulated about substantially horizontal axes at least two mowing units each including a frame carrying at least one cutterbar and one conveyor belt, which mowing units can be moved about the axes from a working position to a transport position. The conveyor belts are articulated relative to the cutterbars about conveyor belt axes and the mower further includes a mechanism for automatically moving the conveyor belts about their axes of articulation to bring them closer to the carrier frames and consequently to the middle of the mower when placed in the transport position.
