The new machines are the
Model 6200 Self Propelled
Windrower and the Model
601 Pull Type Windrower.
Highlights of the 6200 self

pickup reel is available on
the 12-, 15-, and 18-foot sizes
only. Each draper is made of
a 42-mch wide, vulcanized,
rubber-coated polyester
fabric with fiberglass
reinforced rubber slats
vulcanized to the material.
Such construction does an
excellent job of carrying the
crop so acceptable windrows
can be formed.
The auger head comes
equipped with an all-metal
four-bat reel with
replaceable steel fingers.
This head is available in 12-
and 14-foot sizes with 22-inch
diameter auger and six-inch
deep flighting.
Heavy-duty springs allow
headers to float over rough
terrain with> even cutting
height, and crimper-type
hay conditioner gently kinks
stems without breaking or
stripping, for high quality
hay.
The Model 6200 employs a
225-cubic-inch slant six
cylinder gas engine designed
for heavy-duty industrial
service, 0-7 mph infinitely
variable hydrostatic tran
smission. The operator’s
platform is high up out of the
dust zone and has a comfort
engineered seat with full
time steering wheel and
controls within easy reach.

confinement quality pig
nursery feeders, according
to an announcement by
Floyd Carter, marketing
manager.
The new feeders are
easy switching from working

Hydraulic control offers
instant, finger-tip super
vision of complete cutting
range to speed swathing,
save work, and save grain.
Control of reel and platform
height from convenient
push-pull control rods.
One person can switch the
Model 601 from working to
transport and storage
position using the 601’s built
in jack, and the hitch which

136-inch transport/storage
position.
Available in 15-foot end
delivery and 18-foot, 21-foot,
and 25-foot off center
delivery models (three-foot
extensions optional), this
windrower also has wide
discharge throat to lay neat,
well-formed rows of evenly
cut straw, away from bent of
broken stubble.
The Model 601 will operate
from any suitable tractor
with 1-3/8 inch spline, 540
rpm PTO shaft. A five bat
metal reel features end
shields and left and right

designed for a long,
trouble free life. Hop
pers and extensions are
made from glassfibre re
inforced polyester which
cannot corrode. The
working parts are also
made from polyester
and stainless steel and
ball and roller bearings
are widely used. Out-of
work time is cut to a
minimum.

available in a choice of
heavy construction
materials, 16 ga. galvanized
steel or stainless steel. The
new feeders have also been
designed to save floor space,
says Carter. A built-in step
causes pigs to step up to
reach the trough, which
helps discourage dunging in
the feeder. Feed flow ad
justment has been included
on these feeders, which
come in two lengths, and in
single or double side models.
Each trough space will
serve six pigs from weaning
to about 80 pounds in size.
The feeders have five spaces
per three foot of trough;
thus, the six foot long single
side model will serve 60 pigs,
according to Carter. To
make one six foot feeder
serve two pens side-by-side,
stainless or galvanized fence
line trough divider brackets
have also been made
available.

AUGER
A new line of augers
featuring sealed ball
bearings every 10 foot of
shaft length is currently
being introduced by Westgo
Industries. Benefits of the
sealed bearings are
smoother, quieter operation
and less wear for a longer
auger life, says Richard
THE MOST ACCURATE
FERTILIZER SPREADER
YOU CAN BUY.
New screw adjuster.'
Vicon has developed an
entirely new system for
setting the discharge regu
lating disc. The nylon screw
adjuster, which replaces the
setting quadrant of all Vari-
Spreaders, gives the
operator 96 different set
tings, allowing very fine
adjustment of the quantity
of fertilizer being spread.
EQUIPMENT
INC.
Rayl, president Hie new
augers are called A-100.
Drive dioices availably
are: PTO shaft drive, PTO
belt drive, gasoline engine
drive and electric motor
drive.
Westgo is producing the
new augers in eight-, 10-and
13 inch tube diameters.
Lengths are 31,41,51,56,61,
66,71, and 81 ft.
According to Rayl, the
patented Flergo intake
available on eight inch
diameter models prevents
damage to soybeans or any
grain handled. This gentle
handling of soybeans is
particularly inportant where
beans will be held back for
seed.
In addition to these
benefits in preserving grain
quality, Flexgo’s hardened
rubber two foot intake
section lasts up to four tunes
longer than conventional
steel intakes, according to
the manufacturers. Flezgo
is available on eight inch
diameter augers.
