New tub design plus full-length breaker bar
improves mixing with less power so you can feed more hay.
A 3/8-inch bottom pan adds extra service life. Welds are
strong and tolerances precise for stronger side walls. You get
more sturdiness and durability in a new Model 4000 Mixer.
New design of transition area in lower auger improves feed
(low and reduces torque.
New design of discharge door frame allows a
more-complete mix of ration. Choose from belt or auger
discharges. Choose various discharge lengths. Increase
operator convenience and reduce feeding time with optional
hydraulic height control of discharge.
Improved drive train provides reliable performance. A
shear bolt helps protect the planetary and lower-auger roller
chain and sprockets.
