The new Grimme Rootster 904 is based on the 604 revealed at Agritechnica 2007.
THE six-row Rootster 604 sugar beet harvester,
with its 4t bunker capacity, was first launched at Agritechnica
2007. For use as a one-pass system, the flail topper FT300 or
defoliator BM300 are available for attachment to the front linkage of
the tractor.
Now the nine-row Rootster 904
has been developed. Its 4.5m wide intake unit is suitable for 45 or 50cm wide rows. Also based on this machine is the eight-row
Rootster 804 to meet the demands of the Northern American market for 56cm row widths.
Both systems are ideal for
conditions in Eastern Europe, the former CIS, Northern America and
China.
To minimize drives over the headlands there is an optional steering
stub axle fitted with automatic centre steering available. Another
advantage is the new LRC remote control. This allows the driver of
the trailer to control unloading, releasing
the operator of the Rootster so that he can focus on the digging
process.
Also available for all Rootster models is the new automatic track assistance
system Root Runner. An extra-cost option, it reduces pressure on the driver so that he can fully concentrate on the digging process.
