John Shearer’s range of trashworkers have built a good reputation for their utility in predominately summer cropping areas. The new, hydraulic Mk3 Trashworker is an addition to the current range incorporating features to further improve ground following.

IN-BUILT STRENGTH
In the Shearer tradition, this Trashworker is built for structural integrity. Axles, castoring assemblies, floating hitch, frames and wings were all given special attention to ensure long service life. Greasable hardened pins & bushes fitted in high load pivot points are just one such example of our design philosophy.
EXCELLENT TRASHFLOW
The four mounting beams are spaced to provide good clearance between rows to promote better trashflow.
HIGH FLOTATION TYRES
For improved ground following and transport, high flotation tyres are a standard feature. The 3.34m model has 215/85×16”.
SIMPLE LEVELLING ADJUSTMENT
There are no phasing cylinders. Two double acting lift cylinders fitted to the centre section rockshaft, are mechanically linked to the wings and control the wheels. Screw adjustable layshafts (links) control levelling across the working width of the machine and from front to rear.
