Stump grinder

Bobcat has a new stump grinder attachment.

The SG60 is twice as powerful as the previous model.

When using the Bobcat 863 high-flow loader, the SG60 can grind a stump 30 inches in diameter to a depth of 10 in. below grade in less than 10 minutes.

For better visibility, the unit is mounted at a 90-degree angle to the operator instead of directly in front.

For more information, contact a Bobcat dealer, phone 701-241-8740 or e-mail Infocenter@bobcat.com.

Rodent exterminator

The Underground Exterminator is designed to kill rodents with carbon monoxide from a vehicle’s exhaust pipe.

The six-inch long heat-resistant rubber funnel-like device clamps onto the tailpipe. It adjusts to various size pipes. A garden hose attached to the outlet carries the gas underground to the rodents’ burrow.

The gas infiltrates the whole burrow, sending all its inhabitants into a deadly sleep. To treat more than one burrow at a time, common Y connectors can be used to add more hoses.

Rodents usually die within six minutes of breathing the exhaust. The manufacturer recommends running the engine at idle speed for 15 to 30 minutes and using older vehicles that don’t have pollution control systems.

Coulter applicator

The Rite Way Liquid Coulter Applicator is designed for precise placement of fertilizer in minimum and zero-till situations.

The unit is constructed of heavy-duty 1/4 inch wall tube and carries a 5,682.5 litre tank. The coulter’s self-leveling parallel linkage, horizontal float and coulter lateral movement provide an even application by allowing each working section to contour the terrain with minimum disturbance.

Folding and unfolding the unit is performed from the tractor cab by a hydraulic transport pivot wheel system.

A five horsepower Honda engine and Pacer pump are used to fill the tank.

The wing knuckle pins are 13/4 inches to provide stability, durability and low maintenance.

Each coulter features up to 800 pounds of down pressure with a heavy-duty adjustable compression spring.

It has a heavy duty coulter hub with taper roller bearing and triple lip seal.

The 20 inch serrated blade is made of boron steel.

The applicator is available in 33 and 55 foot models. Transportation width is 15 feet.
