Much like the Rhino Beet Washer without the wash tumbler, the Cross Alligator Beet De-Stoner is equipped to de-stone & chop beet. This De-Stoner also has a pre-cleaning feature which helps the water last longer per cycle. The Alligator has the ability to remove 100% of the stones in the beet crop. This allows users to have a stone free sample if they are less worried about dirt. The water in the Alligator can last a lot longer than most of the beet washing range due to the water cleaning system as the machine works. Drive options include Engine, PTO & Electric. The Alligator can be equipped with a Jet was system to allow the user to Jet wash the crop as it tumbles up the elevator. This takes place after a brief soak in water.
Pre-Clean
The precleaning hopper is used to fill the beet washer as well as shake the loose dirt off the Beet. This saves the water from early contamination
De-Stone
The de-stoning section of the beet washer uses a patented cyclone system to seperate the stones from any root crop. All the stones that get sucked down through the bottom of the cyclone are deposited out of the machine seperate to the beet
Wash
This machine uses a range of jet nozzles to wash the beet as it tumbles up the discharge elevator. Not as good a wash as the Tumbler models but will still remove all the heavy clay.
Chop
Every Beet Washer in the CROSS range can be fitted with a chopper. While chopping the chop size can be varied hydraulically. This chopper can be lifted out of the way when not needed in order to wash whole beet.
