COMMAND CONSOLE WITH OPTIONAL REMOTE CONTROL
A central command console is conveniently located and controls all the functions of the machine. An optional remote control is available to keep you out of the dust! It controls the tub rotation, conveyor lift, conveyor articulation, and engine stop. The electronic governor keeps the engine RPMs constant resulting in increased efficiencies and constant load.

BIG BITE HAMMERMILL
The Big Bite hammermill is located at the rear of the subframe, reducing the length of the belly conveyor, improving the belly conveyor service accessibility, and moving the dust away from the operator. The hammermill is also dynamically balanced to give you smoother operation, longer life, and less maintenance.

90 DEGREE TUB TILT
The 11 ft. wide x 50 in. deep tilt tub opens a full 90 degrees for access to the hammermill and screens as well as for normal servicing.

50° OSCILLATING STACKING CONVEYOR
The 30 in. Wide x 26 ft. Long stacking conveyor piles hay to over 18 feet in height. The conveyor can oscillate left to right up to 50 degrees, which means you can not only make the pile tall, you can make it wide also.
