The JUMBO series with a dry forage extension is designated as the dry forage loader wagon and has been specially developed for transporting dry crops such as hay, straw and alfalfa.

Collecting heavily wilted plants and crops with a low specific density places special demands on harvesting technology, which is what makes the capabilities of the JUMBO with Dry Forage Cover stand out.

A strong all-steel loading chamber cover secures the load at the top. The often fibre-rich material, which expands again in the loading chamber after having been compacted by the rotor, is retained by the profiles to achieve a high level of pre-compression.

This results is a maximum load volume and increased cost effectiveness on long transport routes.

Maximum load volume

The JUMBO 7000 and 8000 series with load volumes of 47 m³ and 54 m³ can be equipped with a Dry Forage Cover as an option.

A loading chamber extension is included in the Dry Forage Cover package, so that maximum load volume is available at a transport height of 4 m. The movable front panel provides an additional 4.3 m³ on a vehicle length of 10.66 m or 11.98 m. This means that a total volume of 47 m³ or 54 m³ is available.
