New Honey Bee ‘Plus’ front exceeds owner’s expectation…

 

“Beyond our expectations!”  Was the positive response from South Australian grower Charles Koch when asked how his new Honey Bee ‘Plus’ harvester front had performed over harvest.

 

Charles farms 20,000 acres that straddles the SA/VIC border north east of Frances and had purchased a Honey Bee 42 foot ‘Plus’ harvester front in November 2008. He has the front fitted to a John Deere 9870 STS harvester and has worked it in cereals (wheat, barley and oats) beans and white clover during the harvest.

Home Products Rock Removal Rock Rake RR1500

Engineered to Perfection

Built in the Degelman tradition of quality rock removal equipment, the RR1500 Rock Rake tackles a variety of jobs, including windrowing rocks for subsequent picking, reclaiming gravel on secondary roads, conditioning soil for the construction of golf courses, and leaving a well-groomed final finish for optimum seeding.

RECLAIM GRAVEL

For years rural municipalities have saved thousands of dollars, reclaiming up to 75% of their lost gravel with a Degelman Rock Rake. A simple sprocket change in the transfer case will speed the output drum to the optimum speed for breaking lumps, pulling up and sifting shoulder side gravel off of rural roads.

DRIVE TRAIN

The rock rake drive train is a whole-drive system consisting of heavy duty drivelines, gear box, #100 roller chain, and slip clutch. The entire rock rake is driven by 540 or 1000 PTO.

HARD SURFACED REVERSIBLE/REPLACEABLE TEETH

These hard surfaced teeth are manufactured using a special grade of steel to avoid breaking and bending. These teeth also provide maximum wear as they can be rotated to use both sides. When teeth do have to be replaced, this can be done without changing the entire drum.

ADJUSTABLE WHEEL HEIGHT

Adjustable Wheel Height allows one side of the drum to dig deeper. This feathers out the dirt for clean, dirt-free windrows.

HYDRAULIC FOLDING SYSTEM

The hydraulic folding system comes standard on every machine, and provides for an easy narrow transport width of eight feet and a working position of 14 feet.

FLOATING DRUM

The floating drum absorbs the shock of buried obstructions taking the stress off the machine.

DRUM SHIELDING

Drum Shielding is a standard feature running along the back of the entire drum.

HYDRAULIC DRUM ANGLE

The hydraulic angle adjustments allow the operator to hydraulically angle the entire machine on the go. Drum Angle can be adjusted from 10° to 30° to achieve the optimum working angle to suit various windrowing conditions. This angle can be adjusted hydraulically, on the go.

EXTREME DUTY CHAIN OIL BATH

Built for extreme duty, this easy to service chain housing unit provides a continuous oil bath for constant lubrication. It also incorporates our improved chain tightening system for quick and simple adjustment.
