AGGRESSIVE FLAILS.
The aggressive Vermeer
flails help ensure aeration
and mixing. When properly
aerated, the composting
cycle is considerably
shortened and site throughput
is increased.
RELIABLE COMPONENTS. The poly-synchronous
belt drum drive helps reduce
maintenance and
offers efficient transfer of power.
CONVENIENT TOWING. An optional low-speed
transport kit makes converting
between work and
transport modes quicker and
easier. The CT616
can be changed from transport
to operating mode
using machine hydraulics.
EXTENDED CLUTCH LIFE. Engine power is
transferred through the hydraulically
actuated
PT Tech clutch. To help extend clutch life,
control
software prevents the operator from engaging
or
disengaging the drum drive at full engine rpm.
CONTROL SYSTEM. Operators can monitor and
control the machine
from the comfort of the tow
vehicle. Changes can
be made on the fly as the unit
goes through the
windrow.
EASE OF MAINTENANCE. All grease points are
accessible from ground level.
Hinged, lockable
doors on both sides of the engine
provide spacious
access for maintenance.
