Also comes with a heavy duty deflector which fits beneath the SADIE's mesh guard protecting the bottom of the tractor.

All tyres are solid filled for life-long tyre protection. Rims have greased hubs with sealed bearings and protector shields.
SADIE's Ø8mm spring tynes are bolted in front of the rubber flaps and are adjustable in height. This allows the tyne to be lower than the rubber flap to allow vigorous raking. The tynes are not as long as the rubber flaps to prevent any damage to the vine trunk. You can use with or without tynes to achieve the best results. Each SADIE head is independent and relies on the three wheels to keep the flaps & tynes at the right height and contour of the ground. If the head hits an obstacle the guide wheels prevent damage to the vine and a gas strut allows it to swing back smoothly and reposition itself. Hydraulic motors are stronger than before having two taper bearings & big, tapered output shaft. A hydraulic flow control valve regulates the maximum head rotation speed.
Older model pictured above The SADIE is mounted onto the tractor's front bumper bar. The bumper bar is supplied but holes in this bracket as these need to be made to suit the tractor. The SADIE clips over this and is held on with bolts. There is a tension chain with bracket to be mid-mounted each side (supplied). |
