Industrial Scrapers Rebuilt For Farm Use

Idustrial Scrapers Rebuilt For Farm Use MISCELLANEOUS EQUIPMENT Earth Movers 20-3-3 "Our rebuilt industrial scrapers were de-signed for use by highway building contractors. They're built heavier than most light duty farm scrapers and are an outstanding value," says Jack Fehr, Manitoba, Canada. Fehr buys the scrapers from highway contractors and converts them from cable operation to hydraulic for controlling depth, loading, and unloading with a hydraulic push-off gate. "Farmers use them to dig ditches, build terraces, poultry barns, and many other jobs," says Fehr. "A 180 to 200 hp front wheel assist tractor can handle 10-yard models. Larger models require a 4-WD tractor with duals." A rebuilt 11-yard Caterpillar scraper sells for $14,900 (Canadian); a rebuilt 14-yard Letourneau scraper sells for $12,000 (Canadian). Fehr also sells rebuilt 3 and 4-yard scrapers from $2,500 and 6-yard scrapers from $5,000. He also rents scrapers for $200 per day (Canadian).
