The McHale Plant Sales stand at the forthcoming FTMTA Farm Machinery Show will feature a crossover between certain items of farm machinery and those used in construction and materials handling.

Taking centre stage, from Komatsu’s WA wheel loader series, will be a WA320-8 unit. Specified for agricultural use, the WA320-8 is fitted with a 6.69l six-cylinder Komatsu engine, churning out 170hp. This is married up to an in-house built hydrostatic transmission with four speed ranges. It weighs just over 16t, has a maximum lift capacity of 11,500kg and a closed centre load-sensing hydraulic pump, with a 180l/min output.

Prinoth mulcher

Other attractions on the McHale stand will be the Prinoth mulcher units. Exhibiting will be the remote-controlled Raptor 100 mulcher, complete with a heavy-duty mulching head. The Raptor 100 is fitted with a 75hp Deutz engine, coupled with a hydrostatic transmission capable of a forward speed of 6km/h. It’s fitted with 30cm-wide rubber tracks, as standard. Track width is adjustable from 120cm to 160cm and the ground clearance is 32cm. A rear winch system is available for enhanced safety on slopes. The mulching head is powered via a 34cc axial piston pump.
