OLIVER PICKER
Gets more corn
...faster, safer, easier
You’ll really bring in the com with a two-row
Oliver Model 3 pull-type. Long, aggressive snapping
and husking rolls handle the big crops as well as the
light ones. Adjustable spacing of snapping r 0115... on
the go—from the tractor seat.. .means less clogging.
Get a new Model 3 and you’ll get more ears from
those down and leaning stalks. Smooth shields and
floating extensions ease the stalks into three long,
low gathering chains. New fan and double-sieve
cornsaver get com cleaner, save the shelled com.
There’s added convenience in the new Oliver
picker, too. Width is narrowest of all
two-row pull-type pickers... saves com TQQHTT
opening fields, saves space in storage.
Fewer lubrication points plus enclosed
gear boxes save maintenance, speed up ,
picking operations.
