• TIP-UP TUB. The entire tub can be hydraulically lifted for service, inspection or changing screens. A safety sleeve locks the tub in the "up" position. The lift cylinder operates off tractor hydraulics.
• TUB PLATFORM. Bracing and extra heavy-duty materials keep the tub platform sturdy even in the "up" position.

A 26-foot long conveyor makes it easy to lift material into high storage bins and large trucks

The tub itself can be lifted hydraulically for cleaning and repairs.A convenient brace provides an added safety measure.


The extra-long conveyor can be raised, lowered or folded from the tractor hydraulics. The grinder doesn't have to be running to adjust conveyor elevation.

An electronic sensor keeps the unit from slugging by slowing down the tub rotation as it grinds through dense material. A simple dial controls sensitivity.
