Patz silo unloaders help
you feed on schedule all
year round. Both the Model
RD-790 ring-drive unloader
and Model 98-B surface
drive unloader feature a
double-hook gathering
chain with hardened steel
cutters and claws that rip
through frozen and packed
silage to deliver a steady
flow of silage day after day.
Sharp power cutters
keep silo walls free of silage
buildup. And your unloader
starts free of obstruction at
the push of a button.
See us today for details
on how Patz silo unloaders
take a little of the chore out
of feeding time.
