Case IH launches new Tier 3 Puma Tractor at Fieldays
Case IH is expanding its popular Puma range in New Zealand, with a new model that was released at Fieldays.
The troughs are easily configured to suit different mobs and offer substantial savings for a relatively small investment.
The Flexifeeder is sold in 20 metre kitsets, complemented by high-quality, stainless steel componentry. There are units for single or double-sided feeding, with the option of a high side on the single units to stop feed being “nudged” out by animals.
The heavy-duty version incorporates a 6mm cable to support the liner, with the addition of a 4mm integral cable for additional strength. Steel posts supplied with the heavy-duty option are covered with polyethylene to protect them from corrosion resulting from the silage. The inherent flexibility of the design ensures any animals that get pushed or bumped are not injured and any machinery coming into contact is not damaged.
A choice of models sees the single-sided at 900mm wide by 450mm high, the double-sided at 1,100mm wide by 450mm high, all sold in 20 metre lengths, or single and double “high-sided” units sold by the metre lengths.
Flexifeeder Sled troughs are easily moved onto ‘clean’ ground by a UTV, ute or tractor and offer the ability to accommodate up to 40 large beasts or dairy cows. Available in Drive Over, Mini-Skid, Medium, Large and Jumbo Skid options the range can be delivered in 4, 6 or 10 metre lengths.
Drive Over units measure 280mm wide x 220mm high, Mini Skid, 280mm wide x 280mm high, Medium Skid, 750mm wide x 500mm high, Large Skid, 1000mm wide x 500mm high (water proof option available) and Jumbo Skid, 1100mm wide x 550 high.
