- Auger trough distributor moves the flow of material into the fan housing faster.
- Large transition opening allows a smoother flow of material into the fan.
- Large hopper area increase blower capacity and allows easy forage box positioning.
- 12 in. diameter auger feeds forage into the fan at 30 degree angle. Inserts material into the air stream at nearly the same plane as rotation for greater efficiency.
- Flexible wind guards on hopper sides keep cleanup to a minimum.
- Auger clutch handle operable from front, side and read of blower.
- Water hose connection directs nozzle at auger end. A second inlet is positioned through the blower band.
- Kevlar drive belts last longer and are less susceptible to stretching.
- Transport wheels are equipped with tapered roller bearings.
High power blower
- Blower outlet easily removable for quick inspection and maintenance, without loosening housing band.
- 60 inch diameter impeller housing with heavy eight-paddle fan and rotating back plate that provides non-stop filling and virtually eliminates plugging. Paddles made from 40/50 carbon steel resist wear and corrosion.
- Sharpened adjustable shear bar keeps paddle tips clean. Prevents hair-pinning, carry-over and power loss. All material goes up the pipe.
- Reversible housing band.
Power Paddle design
Engineering tests show that 35 degree paddle angle generates a greater air stream, moving more material with less power.
