“We can harvest as much as an additional 10 to
15 acres a day. This MoCo goes through wet hay,
even grass hay, like it was butter. With a 930, you
don’t have to keep checking for plugging, even
in wet hay. It’s also easy to make adjustments...
and with much more precision,” says Marvin Waltz.

through our 930 MoCo also dries 10 to IS

day. This is important, because we may have
only two or three days in a row of good weather.
