Description

The system is 100% electric and with no hydraulic flow required the hoppers can be positioned for use or lifted into transport position without the need to start and idle the tractor first. The remote boasts a range of 300+ feet, and can operate in extreme weather, heat and cold. The mover’s drive motors mount to the hopper body itself, putting the weight of the self-leveling hopper and the grain on the tires for excellent traction. Each drive motor is independently driven so both tires will always have equal power applied. The supplied halogen work light powers on automatically with any hopper movement. The hopper operating and home positions can be preset by the user; the hopper will move to the location and then stop automatically.

PROXIMITY SENSOR

A proximity sensor on the top of the swing auger allows preset hopper positioning in the "Ops" and "Home" positions. One press of the button deploys the hopper to your desired location automatically.

ELECTRIC MOVER

The electric drive motors are independently driven and mount to the hopper body in the same manner as our proven hydraulic movers. There is no need to make adjustments over varying terrain as the tires will float with the self-leveling hopper.

ERGONOMIC REMOTE

The ergonomic remote works in extreme weather, is small enough to fit in a shirt pocket, and is equipped with a rechargeable lithium ion battery. Functions include Left, Right, Home, Ops, Power, Winch Up, Winch Down.

ELECTRIC CONTROL BOX

Manual override controls and a halogen work light are mounted to the swing auger tube. Power is supplied by the tractor's battery - no hydraulics are required.

HYDRAULIC KIT FEATURES

REMOTE CONTROL

The remote control kits allow smooth positioning of the swing hopper from up to 400 ft away. The electronics are encoded to each remote and are highly resistant to radio interference. If you need to replace or want to add another remote, the remotes can be re-programmed on the farm in seconds. A rechargeable lithium ion battery allows up to 40 hours of continuous remote control use before recharging on a micro-b USB cable or the provided cigarette charger. The system can operate in extreme cold and heat and is IP66 rated weather and dust proof.

RECEIVER/MANIFOLD

The receiver/manifold mounts onto the swing auger’s tube, and in addition to controlling the hydraulic flow, it also features a halogen work light to illuminate the hopper and surrounding area. The manifold itself is made from anodized aluminum for a long lasting finish. A hydraulic system type selector switch on the rear of the unit allows immediate accommodation of either open or closed hydraulic systems allowing compatibility with any tractor hydraulic system. There is also a manual mover switch in case you misplace the remote.
