The RS32O has twice the capacity of an average rock picker. Features Schulte's exclusive floating
continuous conveyor with a gentle picking action. Special design results in dirt-free rock picking.
Large floatation tires easily handle big loads. The RS32O has a framework and linkage system that
allows rocks to be dumped at heights of 3to 81/2 feet (910-2600 mm). Lifting and dumping oper
ations are controlled independently.

AMD LEVELS THE GROUND
The WRS Rock Windrower employs aside delivery frame arrangement which allows the operator to bet
ter control the size of windrows, regardless of rock conditions. The wmdrower's PATENTED pivoting
drum arrangement allows the wheels to be placed closer to the windrower drum, resulting in excellent
ground following characteristics.
