Bean Lifter Guard
If you direct harvest your beans, this bean lifter will greatly reduce your header
losses. The lifter lifts pods and branches off the ground, high enough to clear the knife without being cut
to pieces. Because there is more plant material picked up and because you can drive faster there is
more material for the reel to work with. This results in a better -flow' of plant material into the header
auger with a lot less beans left on the ground or being cut to pieces by the knife. Lifter guards work with
standard and air reels. The lifter guards can only be used with the EASY CUT SYSTEM.
yr THE GUARD has standard 3 inch hole spacing which fits most cutting bars. It is made of
spring steel and clamps onto the cutting bar, with support both on the top and bottom of
the guard, giving it much greater strength and durability than a standard forged guard.
• no knife hold down clips • no shins • no adjusting
• two cutting edges — lasts twice as long
THE SICKLE uses specially designed top serrated sections. ,
The sections have a cut-out to prevent material from building

up on knife when cutting green crop or hay. One section cuts

improving the cut.

WHAT WILL YOU DO AFTER HARVEST?
Between October and April we'll be working with a small group of people dedicated to learning
more about agri-business. We'll spend part of the day in one of the city's newest buildings but
much of our time will be spent exploring nearby farm operations. Some of the time we'll force
ourselves to enjoy sports and special functions. Our students will leave early each day to carry on
with job or family responsibilities and each spring we'll celebrate with them as they
successfully enter the agri-work force.
WE ARE: FARM BUSINESS MANAGEMENT - WOODSTOCK
