! Multi-purpose: Precision chop loader wagon and Silage wagon The Schuitemaker Rapide is a real multi-purpose precision chop loader wagon and silage wagon. That means that the Rapide precision chop loader wagon is not only suitable for picking up and cutting of all sorts of grass but also for the transport of heavy silage products, for example during the harvest of maize. Because the trailing pick-up folds away under the platform of the wagon a maximum ground clearance is created which is a must when harvesting on wet conditions. Second advantage is that driving with a folded pick-up, the pick-up...

Optimal loading, superior silage The star shaped rotor is 1,80 meters width for the 10-series and 2 meters in width for the 100- and 1000-series. The rotor tines are shaped and have a width of 20 mm, the tip/ends of the rotor tines are made with hard facing. This ensures that even under the most difficult circumstances all types of grass are perfectly cut and loaded. The shape and placing of the stripper frames, the wide rotor channel and the sloped platform ensure that the grass is easily transported into the wagon. The Rapide 1000-series has a more powerful rotor and driveline so that an even...

Superior and excellent cutting quality The cutting system of the Rapide precision chop loader wagon has a maximum of 43 knives and guarantees a cutting length of 44 millimeters for the grass in the wagon. The standard one sectional (10-series) and standard three sectional (100- and 1000-series) knife bar is made of Hardox steel, a material that is known for its high resistance to wear. The grass is cut by using the scissor principle and the knives are held under hydraulic pressure. For each grass sort, the pressure on the knives can be adjusted from the control box so that less pressure can be...

8 | 9 RapidStream front panel The Schuitemaker Rapide is known for its high compression of the load, the highest of all multi-purpose loader wagons and pick-up wagons.

This, combined with the specially constructed rotor with stripper frames, ensures that the grass can be compressed in the wagon. Each wagon can therefore carry more grass and bigger load. The optional hydraulically operated RapidStream front panel ensures a good grass flow in the normal position. In the open position it is...
