The highest capacity on the market
The gearbox reducer offset can be positioned up or down for best alignment with all tractor models.
Overrunning clutch on PTO
Paired with high torque rating PTO shaft, the clutch protects the blower drive components and the tractor from variations in the load.
8 paddles
The 60in rotor contains 8 paddles providing a smooth operation and large flow. Made of heat-treated steel, they resist abrasion.
Robust drive
The feeding auger is driven by 2 pair of 5VX belts (cogged belts) capable of transmitting all the required power. The large 2in diameter auger shaft is supported by premium quality cast iron flange bearings.
Hydraulic wheel adjustment
Independent cylinders lift both wheels without effort. Travels and installation at the silo are faster. The conical wheel bearings are durable.
Largest intake table on the market
The rotor capacity means nothing if it’s not fed properly. Dion forage blowers offer an oversized intake table capable or accepting high throughputs without bridging or clogging. The 14in or 16in (optional) diameter augers easily surpass the 12in version of the competition.
Ergonomic and safe
The auger engagement system is simple and a safe.
Hinged guards provide easy access for maintenance and adjustments
PTO shearbolts are stored on the driveshaft guard for handy access
Water intake
Two water intakes are standard equipment on the S55HO blowers. They provide lubrication to the rotor band to prevent debris adhesion, accumulation and also reduce power requirement and wear.
The Dion advantage
The S55HO provides the following benefits over the competition:
Feeding auger
14” diameter x 10” pitch auger
Provides high uniform flow
16” diameter x 16” pitch auger
For ultra-fast unloading
(Requires a minimum 175hp PTO tractor)
