It is harvest time and you need to

bring in the best quality crop.

High quality forage saves on pricey

concentrates and delivers extra yield.

It pays to know how to do this, and save

money. The self-loading wagon is

indisputably the most economic form

of crop handling.

The conveyor systems protect the

forage, and the consistent chop length

is ideal for rumination. Low drag

resistance, high performance and

multiple capabilities boost your profit.

Nothing is left behind ...Top marks for Pöttinger's

pick-up.

Countersprings and

precision ground hugging

on bumpy terrain guarantee

that everything is picked-up

tidily.

The pickup cam track ismade of steel and has asolid centre (not acasting). The centre cannever break. An inspec-tion cover is provided sothat the rollers and camtrack can be checked.

The controlled pickup tines are trailed to protect thesward and make sure nothing is left behind.

Pick up

Transfer plates betweenthe pickup and loadingsystem ensure that dirtand stones can escape.

BOSS and PROFI Grand Prix self-loading wagons.5 rows of tines and a 1.65 m wide pickup.Loading starts with a clean sweep

● The pickup guide plate is shaped to collect all the crop.● Ideal pivotting action and countersprings make the pickup extremely

adaptable to uneven ground.● Hydraulic pickup lift system has two cylinders; one at each end.● The pneumatic pickup wheels can be adjusted 8-fold and are

located precisely at the tine contact point. A freewheel mechanismprotects the tines during reversing.

● Countersprings at each end guarantee the best possible ground hugging.

PONY and BOSS-junior have 4 rows of tines and a pickup 1.55 m wide.

Cam track at either end

for only half the stresson the control elements.The combs are posi-tioned precisely in eachphase.

On all self-loadingwagons: all loadingcombs are fitted withhardened bearing

PONY 1 / 22 / 3 single-piece loading combs, 7 knives

BOSS Junior

3 split loading combs, 12 knives

BOSS / ERNTEBOSS

3 split loading combs, 22 knives

The loading combs are

split in the middle for

"patented" low

resistance:

the blanket of crop is

grasped and chopped

in an offset action but

is conveyed as a single

blanket. There is no

peak stress on the

knives either.

Smooth loading system● Because the loading comb bars are split in the middle the stress is distributed

over more cam rollers and a larger cam control surface.● The wide conveyor duct protects the crop and guarantees highest loading

performance.● Each knife cuts the crop exactly between the dual tines.● The cam tracks at each end are circular and ensure smooth, jolt-free running

and a long service life.● The pickup and loading system are equipped with automatic transmission

for reversing.

The original with serrated bladesThese hardened tool steel

knives, serrated on one

side, guarantee a long

service life.

Often copied – never equalled● Perfect serrated blades ensure that even after the knife edge is blunt a good

chop is still achieved.● The curved knife shape delivers a continuous, power-saving cut.● The blanket of forage is always cut with precision to protect the crop.● SUPERMATIC knife security system: If an object triggers the security system,

there is only minimal resistance as the knife moves back (up to 13 cmclearance), and then clicks into place again.
