Description

The biomass forage wagon is a front and rear unload forage box with hydraulic or PTO rear unload. PTO rear unloading takes approximately 30 seconds to unload. Hydraulic rear door opens and closes without assistance. Latch system locks and unlocks on its own. The control panel allows the operator more speed selections - low range is 0-7'6"/min and high range is up to 17'/min. The independent cross conveyor clutch allows operators to feather start the cross conveyor on big loads. The auger feathering system allows the operator to inch the augers clean without bringing the load forward. Change direction of unloading by moving the main apron drive coupler. The forage box has a poly floor to eliminate main apron chain, floor and gear box wear.
