in mixing.
Oswalt TMR/Hay Processors are clearly
superior in their ability to mix all types of
ration ingredients, Including dry hay. A
reel-type mixer, particularly when fully
loaded, retains a quantity of the dry hay in
tha canter of tha real which then simply
turns over with the real and receives little
mixing. Your hay just gets a free ride and
your final mix is uneven at best. In an
Oswalt TMR/Hay Processor, the hay Is
processed and evenly and aggressively
mixed throughout the ration. It has no
place to hide.

tion of a Texas member of the
board. Carter’s term will expire in
1991.
A key element of mixing dry hay into a
ration is processing the hay while all ration
Ingredients are being mixed. That means
tearing the hay apart and reducing fiber
length during the mixing process.
In an Oswalt, the notched bottom auger
working against the shear shelf, does the
primary job of tearing the hay slabs apart
and reducing the length of long hay
stems.
The aggressive square top-augers (a
patented Oswalt exclusive) grab the hay
slabs and finish the processing Job.
