Feeding
Hard, packed and frozen silage makes feed
ing more than a routine chore.
Patz gives you two solutions to the problem
the RD-790 ring-drive silo uhloader and the
98-B surface-drive silo unloader. Both have a
double-hook gathering chain with hardened
steel cutters and claws that rip through frozen
and packed silage.
Patz powered silo wail cutters prevent silage
build-up along the walls, so there’s less wasted
feed. And the claws and cutters of the gather
ing chain deliver a steady flow of silage day
after day.
Want to know more about the Patz silo un
ioaders? Bring in your questions and your par
ticular unioader needs. We’ll show you how to
get the most for your money ... with Patz.
