New Way To Lift Equipment TILLAGE EUIPMENT Accessories 22-3-25 A simple new lift system for most any type of field equipment eliminates complicated lift mechanisms and bushings on conventional systems.
"Hydrocasters" are the brainchild of Surrey, N. Dak., farmer Harry Behrens, who says the system can be used on pull-type field cultivators, plows, air seeders, swathers, sprayers and more.
It consists of a vertically mounted castering implement wheel and hydraulic cylinder assembly (with a patented free-floating piston) that bolts to the frame of the implement. Size of cylinder, number of wheels and placement depends on the size of the implement, Behrens says.
For example, two Hydrocasters with a 2 1/ 2-in. cylinder are enough to lift a 21-ft. cultivator, while six dual wheels and 4-in. cylinders are necessary to lift a big, 70-ft. cultivator.
Lift provided ranges from 16 up to 24 in., he says.
"Hydrocasters" start at $50 to $60. Contact: FARM SHOW Followup, Harry Behrens, 8201 167th St. N.E., Surrey, N. Dak. 58785 (ph 701 728-6637).
