Pöttinger launches silage additive tank for loader wagons and balers
Pottinger has released details of its newly developed LIQUIDO F front-mounted, multi-purpose silage additive tank.
The headstock features a sturdy three-point pivoting headstock with absorber struts as standard and the best tracking performance prevents the tedder from jolting during operation are for working well on slopes. The horizontal headstock guidance provides high clearance at headland turns and prevents under-running on slopes.
The newly designed DynaTech” rotor unit and tine arm has been introduced, using smaller rotor diameters and either five or six curved tine arms and a new tine design to ensure optimum tedding quality and perfect ground tracking for a superior spread pattern for a more quicker and uniformed wilting of the forage resulting in higher quality.
This unique rotor geometry ensures forage cannot snag or wrap around the tine arms, and a gentle uptake by the trailing, sweeping arms ensures the crop is subjected to less damage between the tine arms, and results in less crop losses. Spreading angles can be adjusted on each rotor in three steps without tools, and all rotors are equipped with 16 x 6.5-8 tyres, which are even better protected from contamination thanks to a newly designed axle. An optional front jockey wheel system is available which ensures optimum ground tracking for ideal protection of the sward and forage.
The new HIT 8.91 T trailed version has transport wheels which fold up hydraulically over the rotors during operation, achieving an optimal centre of gravity and preventing oscillation while in work, and making it ideal for use with smaller tractors.
Operation is straightforward and is activated using a double-acting connection with sequential control.
Fenceline tedding systems are also available for all models to clear the crop away from fencelines.
