Specifications
852 Drum
- The working heart of the 852 is the combination of drum, comb & flywheel – all specifically designed to shred straw bales in all formats.
- The drum is fitted with spirals of blades and small ‘gripper’ teeth, which take the straw from the bale and feed it evenly into the flywheel chamber.
- The flywheel can discharge the straw via the 280° swivelling chute at distances up to 15 metres – even feed of the straw onto the flywheel reduces blockage risk and maintains tractor power needed at a minimum level.
Swivelling Chute
- The Kverneland 852 is fitted as standard with a new swivel chute that offers a 280° rotation of the chute.
- It allows the operator to accurately direct bedding materials into otherwise inaccessible areas of the building.
- The new chute is positioned right above the flywheel where the blow is strongest.
- This give a more efficient distribution of the material and reduces the risk of blockages.
- The end flap of the swivel chute operates via an electric actuator whilst the 280° rotation of the chute is hydraulically operated.
- The Kverneland 852 can discharge the straw at a distance of up to 15m.
Flywheel
- The 1.55m diameter flywheel of the Kverneland 850 series is fitted with 6 blowing paddles, providing a powerful blow for the most efficient distribution of the material and an excellent cleaning of the flywheel housing.
- The flywheel does not chop the straw, thus ensuring virtually full length material suitable for bedding of covered yard areas.
- In combination with the 2-speed gearbox (standard on models 853 and 856) the flywheel can throw straw up to 18.00m (on high speed) or gently feed hay/silage at the side of the machine (at low speed).
- With the 280° swivel chute discharge straw can be blown up to 15.00m.
Easy Loading of Bales
- The hydraulically operated rear door fitted to 800 series provides a self loading facility for easy loading of square and round bales.
- The rear door also offers the ability to carry a second round bale for increased capacity.
- A bale kit can be fitted to the end of the tailgate to ensure that the bales stay in position during operation.
- The size of the bale chamber makes it very easy to load the material with a loader – and two round bales can be loaded at the same time – saving time.
