CONSTRUCTION
GREATER MANEUVERABILITY
The patented four-wheel steering design offers sharper turning, greater maneuverability, and excellent trailing. The front 180-degree steering and 2:1 front-to-rear steering connection ratio ensures true tracking performance.
MODELS & SIZES
All Wheel Steer (AWS) models are available in 52’, 48', 42', 36' and 30' for hauling the widest variety of corn heads, grain platforms and draper platforms, including those with stalk stomper attachments.
MOUNTING
Patented four-position height adjustable rest brackets provide easy wrench-free adjustment and feature extra-tall backstops that can be flipped down for carrying low-profile headers. The rest bracket features side plates that pivot for use or storage.
STABLE TRANSPORT
The rear-oscillating axle keeps all four wheels in full contact with the ground, even when traveling over rough terrain.
FRAME
Heavy-duty greaseable 8-bolt hubs, automotive-type ball-joint steering, spindles with tapered roller bearings and new tires dependably carry all brands of corn heads and grain platforms.
BRAKES & TIRES
52’ models are standard with two-wheel electric brakes and optional with four-wheel brakes. All other models can be equipped with optional two or four-wheel electric brakes. Brake packages include a breakaway engagement for enhanced transport safety. Several wheel and tire choices are available including high flotation IF 320/65x15 tires, 235/85x16 tires and 11Lx15 tires depending on the model.
COLOR OPTIONS
The All-Wheel Steer header transport features a highly durable powder-coat finish in your choice of red, green or black for a long-lasting finish that resists corrosion.
