TWO SPEED GEARBOX:

The high / low speed gearbox allows straw to bespread a distance of up to 18M in high speed or feed materials to be placed alongside a feed barrier
in low speed

 

ENGINEERED BENEFITS:

Every aspect of the SC-185 has been designed toensure that it is a highly productive low maintenance machine designed to give years of trouble free service as a duel purpose bedding and feeding machine.


The design of the cross beater and rotor ensure that a consistent throughput of material is achieved coping with the most difficult of bales with ease Protection is offered to the drive system via shear bolts on the cross beater drive sprocket and an over run and friction clutch come as standard on the P.T.O shaft,

A heavy duty chain is used in the moving floor to ensure trouble free operation, the speed and direc- tion of the floor are adjustable from the drivers controls

 

The KEEL AGRI SC-185 offers a dramatic saving in straw (up to 30%) but also labour savings on the time needed to bed and feed animals. There are also safety benifets to using the machine as the operator no longer has to enter animal enclosures to bed. As the straw is not clumped and layered in the shed the dung will be much easier to remove and spread on the land.
