UM 6150 Potato harvester Price excludes VAT Simple and robust construction UM2000 elevator digger is a robust built potato digger that can be used under nearly all har- vesting conditions. It is 3-point mounted and P.T.O. driven. The elevator chain is a hooked steel chain that can also be delivered with rubber covered rods. Gentle handling With correct adjustment the elevator digger will give you gentle handling of your potato crop. Important points to be conside- red for minimum damage are P.T.O. speed, forward speed and the angle of the lift elevator. Adiustment of the elevator is controlled by the length of your tractor top link. Easy maintenance Typical wear parts on the machine are the shares, belt sprockets, rollers and the elevator chain. All these parts are easy to replace. Capacity For the lifting of food potatoes and other potatoes where it is important to keep low damage, a forward speed of 2-3.5 km/h (1.25-2.2mph) is recommended. This is corresponding to 0.3-0.6 acre/hour. For factory potatoes where the damage factor is less important, the speed can be increased considerably. Lifts ahead of pickers At the rear of the digger, behind the elevator chain, a side grate delivers the potatoes to the side of the machine placing them far enough from the next ridge to prevent the tractor wheels rolling over them when the next ridge is lifted. With this machine it is possible to lift as much of the field as one wishes- independant of the pickers. Under wet soil conditions it is often desirable to let the potatoes rest on the ground for some while in order to dry up a little. Ouicker picking is facilitated by digging in advance of the pickers.
