The HYDROPAIL 1 GT is a compact, front‑loader‑mounted straw blower & bedder designed for small machinery such as compact loaders, skid-steers or small telehandlers. Suitable for farms with limited space or lightweight carriers, it handles a single round bale (up to 1.4 m diameter) or a single square bale (approximately 0.7 × 0.9 × 1.4 m).
Core Specifications:
-Weight (unladen): ~770 kg
-Bale capacity: 1 round bale (Ø 1.4 m) or 1 square bale (0.7 × 0.9 × 1.4 m)
-Discharge: Rotating chute (300°), allowing bedding up to 10 m distance
-Mounting: Front‑loader adjustable coupling—compatible with various carrier tools
-Blower assembly: 1 m diameter turbine with 6 bolted blades, driven hydraulically, and spiral bale opener with regulating tines
-Conveyor: 80/12 flat‑chain with 60 × 30 mm slats, powered by gearmotor with adjustable speed
Key Features:
-Robust monocoque body: Welded, sealed double‑skinned structure with epoxy primer and polyurethane finish for durability and easy cleaning
-Maintenance access: External belt tensioners, mechanical access to turbine and components via service hatches
-Excellent operator visibility: Loader-mounted and front-facing to provide clear line of sight during bedding
-Controlled air flow: Engineered airflow ensures precise, dust-minimised bedding distribution—even in confined spaces
-High throughput: High-capacity turbine and baling system means fast, efficient bedding in fewer passes
Benefits:
-Ideal for small carriers: Only requires around 1,200 kg lift capacity, ideal for mini or stage-one loaders
-Simple to use and maintain: Front-facing mounting, accessible service components — quick coupling and hassle-free upkeep
-Accurate bedding: Rotating chute and air-flow regulation deliver precise and uniform straw placement
-Versatile bedding performance: Works with both round and square bales, suitable for various livestock shed layouts
Practical Performance:
-Designed to offer high throughput of straw/bedding — the combination of power-feed floor, bale‑breaker, and blower wheel aims to deliver one of the highest bedding/straw output rates on the market.
-The 300° rotating chute gives great flexibility: allows directed discharge into cubicles, bedding areas, feed alleys, manure pits or storage zones without repositioning the machine heavily.
-Compact enough to be used on relatively modest tractors or loaders — suitable also for smaller farms / smaller machines.
-Capable of handling both round and square bales, which adds versatility in feeding/bedding operations.
