Reliability
from hectare to hectare
Quasar maize headers are the result of a design that has been painstakingly developed, revised and fine-tuned year after year.
They have hectare upon hectare of excellent, quick and problem-free work under their belt. This has earned them the appreciation of contractors and made them the most productive machines in fields around the globe.
Rigid or flip-up?
The choice is yours
Quasar comes in a rigid version (from 4 to 18 rows) and flip-up version (from 5 to 16 rows).
Both versions offer the highest level of performance, even on the road: unbeatable compact design, excellent driving stability and great visibility.

An innovative hood design
based on impressive experience
Strong yet light, impervious to the wear and tear of time, and rust proof.
The technopolymer used for the hoods and points has rightly earned a solid reputation for superiority in any situation.
The technopolymer hood encourages leaves and stalks to slip off even in the worst weather conditions and minimizes crop loss as it is specially designed to absorb knocks from the ears, softening the impact even at very high forward speeds.
Quasar comes into its own even under extreme conditions, for example when the crop is laid very flat and calls for a low profile, or when maize is already dry, at which point gentleness and flexibility become essential requirements.
Constant, even feeding
Points and hoods are fully adjustable and can be flipped up completely.
Points can be adjusted continuously by adjusting a simple lever locked by a screw.
The side auger (optional extra) is a device designed for harvesting laid maize.
The drive employs a gearbox with built-in continuously lubricated torque limiter.
Handy, reliable and lightweight due to its treated aluminium construction.
Capello quality
The first header with stalk chopper rotor
The snapping roller profile and row unit are the beating heart of this tireless machine. The stalk crushers (optional extra) protect tyres from stubble damage.
The highly tested and much copied horizontal rotor system, located beside the roller shaft, has always been a hallmark of the Capello headers.
The implement can even be ordered with the stalk chopper built into the cast gearbox. This ensures unrivalled work quality with minimum power consumption.
The stalk chopper can be engaged or disengaged at the turn of a lever.
Function and flexibility for every need
Suitable for any combine harvester and available with any row spacing — from 45 [cm] to over 100 [cm] — Quasar really does cater to every need. And if you decide to change combine, no problem: simply replace the rear flange coupling.
The drive system components, which are oversize and include a continuously lubricated gearbox, always work at their peak without faltering: reliability is the feature that has allowed Quasar to set the benchmark for maize headers.
Sunflower
harvesting kit
The first of its kind, Quasar converts to a sunflower attachment in just a few simple steps: efficient and affordable, the special additional kit (optional extra) actually takes just a few minutes to fit.
Cutting-edge coating system
Nothing is left to chance, not even the paintwork: all CAPELLO products are coated to the strictest ISO standards in electrostatic powder coating systems and pass the strictest testing.
Product quality is guaranteed by a company brand recognized worldwide for the reliability and performance of its products.
