Greater flexibility and ease of use for grain chutes
Kröger presents the HKD 302 three-way tipper with a sophisticated upgrade featuring new options for operating the grain slides at the rear. Thanks to this innovation, up to three slides can now be operated from either the left or right side of the vehicle – a significant gain in comfort and flexibility in everyday work.
Operation is carried out using two separate levers: one opens the two outer grain slides, the other opens the middle slide. The two outer grain slides are opened simultaneously via a sturdy shaft, while the middle slide can be operated independently.
This solution offers decisive advantages in practice: the outer levers allow all grain slides to be opened from either the right or left side. This makes it easy to open the slides even when the vehicle is already at the hopper of a planter or wheel loader bucket, for example. The lever control previously located in the centre is now completely eliminated. The left and right grain slides can now be opened together using a side lever, while the middle slide remains separately controllable – ideal for targeted filling of a fertiliser spreader, for example.
