compaction so harvesting can
continue even in extremely wet
conditions.
The harvesting unit is equipped
with automatic depth control
based on two skids (ADC),
separate harvesting shares and
large, hydraulically driven cutting
discs. It is supported by a robust
system of support rollers and
automatic pressure control
(APC). With the skids positioned
between the baulks, the
harvester automatically follows
the rows (DAS).
The sieving path consists of a
digger web followed by two
sievingwebs, each 1760mm
wide. This width is maintained
over the full sieving path,
offering a wide, unobstructed
flow, and Dewulf say that very
high driving speeds can be
achieved during harvesting.
The Kwatro bunker holds 17.5
m³, and it possible to unload the
entire bunker quickly or on the
move. The harvester is equipped
with an automatic hydraulic
tensioner that maintains the
desired tension on the bunker
chain, making it less susceptible
