Features
- Wagon - Trailer - Truck Mount options
- HD Steel Frame with tubular floor supports on 24" centers. 7'5" inside width for maximum capacity! New integrated top rail system eliminates the need for side supports when roof is removed.
- Removable Roof standard / open top optional
- Variable Speed RT belt drive standard equipment - featuring our new, high-efficiency bevel gear-drive system which offer clean-out speeds up to 17' / minute. New RT Auger Drive feature consistent auger speed based throughout the range.
- Spring-loaded roller chain tensioning w/ nylon paddle tightener on primary drive and auger drives
- Hydraulic In-Cab Control Option - The cab-controlled hydraulic drive provides a safe, convenient way to operate your RT Series front unload box. It also eliminates all belts and most roller chains and bearings associated with the manual belt drive! (requires 25 gpm min)
- HD 2" main drive shaft with machined drive sprockets - tough stuff!
- Wide Discharge - This 24" wide conveyor utilizes a pintle apron for an even discharge to your blower or bagger while reducing buildup commonly seen with roller chain conveyors. Chain hold-downs run full length and are standard equipment.
- Fold-Down Cross Conveyor Extension - This feature makes for easy approaches to the bagger or blower with less spillage while unloading. Standard on RT600 models.
- 18" Diameter drum augers in a tapered formation provide a smooth mat of feed to the discharge conveyor.
- Feather start controls including cross apron / augers / main apron. No jaw clutch starts like other brands!
- Solid Poly Floor - Meyer RT600 Forage Boxes come standard with a solid poly floor (no plywood)! This system reduces drag by approximately 30% plus provides much faster cleanout. Don't forget that all RT & RTX boxes have 100% steel floor supports too - no wood like many others.
- High capacity options include 6" taller roof package - Allow for easier filling on longer models and more capacity. Roof is removable as is the standard roof system!
- 4th beater is optional with 12" taller side package - This 12" taller side package is available with or without a roof. It is a perfect match when using a SP chopper for front filling or anytime you desire more capacity. 4th beater available with 12" taller side. (not available in conjunction with 6" taller roof)
- LED lighting is Standard
