and maintain a steady, high-volume silage flow with automatic lowering. An optional electric motor-driven winch lowers the Patz ring-drive silo unloader automatically after it makes each complete revolution.
You can adjust the letdown to match the silage condition and your desired rate of feed flow. To regulate volume of feed, adjust the volume control dial toward the "Min" or "Max" position as required. An ammeter allows you to monitor the load on the silo unloader motor while setting the volume control adjustment.
The automatic lowering control keeps the silage surface level for reliable operation and constant full-flow feeding. This winch control also allows you to easily raise the silo unloader at any time with the push of a button.
If you already own a Patz ring-drive unloader, you can add this automatic lowering option to your present unloader.
