2019 Hustler Equipment Bale Feeders SL360X

The all new SL360X is easier to use than any other type bale unroller or hay processor on the market today. It is also the most innovative, with 6 unique features you wont find on any other bale processor that makes it easier to use, more versatile, and saves your precious time. The self-loading design can be front loader or 3-point hitch mounted and is suitable for feeding out all but the tightest of round bales and baled silage, loose silage, maize, fodder-beet and more

Features may include:

• Auto connect/disconnect hands-free loading system saves you time, saves the frustration with tugging on a rope to disconnect, and saves you from twisting your back. Its fail-safe, fast and operates naturally.

• Floor bars are 4-5 times stronger torsionally than angle type bars of the same size.

• New Thermoform floor covers the driveshafts which eliminates any possibility of feed wrapping around the shafts or jamming.

• The bolt on lower hitch mounts allows for the feeder to be off-set by 180mm in either direction, another unique feature that allows operators to distribute the feed closer to the head-bails and stock in barns eliminating double handling of the feed saving your time. The off-set feature works for both 3 point linkage and most loader mounts.

• Weve used specifically designed forged bale spears which pierce the bale rather than pushing it and are longer which reduces bale sag even with the wettest of bales, another innovation from Hustler.

• Toughest chain on the market. Zinc plated chains rated to 24,000lbs with the larger diameter rollers and pins make our chain drive system almost twice as strong as our competitors. And the greater surface on each roller pin increases chain life because they cant stretch or snake.

• The new single piece fully enclosed floor reduces feed waste and will never corrode. Being polyethylene it is slippery with 30% less drag compared to steel which makes feeding sticky silage or wet bales easy.

• Our ultra-low cradle design with removable fences makes for easy loading should you not have much lift height on your tractors hitch, and lets you customise the feeder to your preferences. The longer spears also make loading easier, by reducing sag.

• Are built into the design, should you ever need to adjust the pre-set chain tension.

• High mounted connection latches on both sides of the feeder take the load off the cradle, which removes any load from the bale spears. This provides a more reliable, positive connection to handle the heavier bales it has been tested to handle.
