FAE
FAE is updating its SSM line of forestry tillers for 170-300 hp tractors.
The HP models now have a side gearbox cooling system, while all versions benefit from interchangeable wear-resistant Hardox inner plates inside the crushing chamber.
The main applications of the SSM line are plantation and nursery maintenance, vineyard and orchard upkeep, agriculture tilling and soil reclamation and soil mixing. This equipment is able to shred roots and stumps up to 20 in. in diameter, down to a maximum working depth of 16 in., according to FAE.
Its most notable technical features include the wear-resistant Hardox plates, the central gearbox alignment system specially developed by FAE, the transmission with side gearbox and the adjustable Hardox counter blade. To complete the offer, an adjustable hood grille, a dozer blade and a rear hydraulic support roller also are available.
The SSM comes standard with A/3 teeth, or with A/3/HD and F/3 teeth upon request. It is available in three widths: SSM-200, SSM-225 and SSM-250. The same sizes are also available for the HP version: SSM/HP-200, SSM/HP-225 and SSM/HP-250.
