The cleaning out of the vine stems is hard work that is carried out at the same time as the breaking off of countless shoots and suckers at the fruit roots. So it is advisable to leave the cleaning-out of the vine stems to machines to allow more time for manually handling the breaking-off of the vine shoots that is so important for quality. The above-lane stem brush from KMS Rinklin has several horizontally and vertically rotating brushes for thorough and gentle removal of undesirable growth.
