Description:
SC-8 Skid Steer Silage Cutter Data
The Silage Cutter will safely and efficiently remove extremely hard-packed or frozen silage with minimal reduction of particle size. The Silage Cutter features a large drum for tremendous capacity. The specially engineered teeth are self-cleaning and self-sharpening. The Silage Cutter has a heavy-duty drive chain for extreme duty situations with high torque and extremely fast dig out rate. It is ideal for trench, bunker or piles and leaves a smooth and undisturbed face to reduce spoilage and forage waste. In addition to saving the silage, the Silage Cutter also reduces load time, wear and tear on the power unit and hydraulic drivelines. All these features add up to a great money saving tool!
The Silage Cutter provides an effective tool for bunker face management.

LONGEVITY
• This silage defacer turns at only 50 to 70 RPM top speed. With low RPM, it creates less heat and wear on bearings and hydraulics, which will significantly prolong the life of your silage defacer.
• This silage cutter is built very heavy and sturdy. There is a 2” diameter main shaft that drives the Silage Cutter, and a 1/4” thick steel drum with 98 fully welded steel teeth. All this weighs in at a hefty 1,168 Lbs giving this silage cutter the strength and durability you need.
• Minimal maintenance is required. There are only a few things that need to be maintained on a Silage Cutter. There are two grease zerks, one on the left and one on the right bearing, that need to be greased every 8 hours of operation. The drive chain must be kept at the right tension. And in cold weather, the ends of the silage cutter must be kept clean in order to prevent the silage from freezing the drum tight. This is the only maintenance required equaling minimal time and money spent to operate the Silage Cutter.
PRODUCTION
• With the Silage Cutter’s 98 teeth welded on an 18” large steel drum, more teeth come in contact with the bunk at one time, than do most other silage cutters. This allows the Silage Cutter to turn slower, and still keep its production level high. This slower turn speed combined with the weight of this unit prevents it from bouncing around like the lighter high speed units on the market.
QUALITY
• The teeth on a Silage Cutter are designed to get you the most out of your silage. With the slow spinning speed and hook shaped teeth, the Silage Cutter pulls the feed out without cutting it like a small drum silage cutter.
