DESCRIPTION
Lely Tigo S
Working with a loader wagon is the quickest way to harvest your crops.
.
.Loader wagons can finely chop
grass and they have a large loading capacity. The optimum loading of the
wagon makes haulage as efficient as possible.
The Tigo S range has a model suitable for all farms. This is due to
there being a choice of four different sizes, single or tandem axles and
foldable or rigid extension sides. The Tigo ST models have been
especially developed for mountainous regions. Their ability to operate
in such circumstances is due to the combination of wide track width and a
low centre of gravity.
Optimum crop treatment
The swing arm feed unit of the Tigo S ensures optimal crop treatment.
The kidney-shaped cam track steers the feed forks through the loading
area, smoothly and crop-friendly. The double tines mounted on the feed
forks remain in contact with the crop in an ideal angle until they are
retracted again.
Unique gear drive
The feed unit is powered by a heavy duty gear drive. Its ability to
absorb high loads ensures consistent and smooth running of the wagon.
Each feed fork is mounted on two individual roller bearings. From the
Lely Tigo 40 S model onwards all bearings have central lubrication as
standard.
Perfect cutting quality
All Tigo S models can be fitted with a maximum of 33 knives arranged
in two rows giving chop lengths down to 38 mm. The chop length can be
adjusted via a lever which selects the required number of knives
(0/5/17/21/33). The knife shape ensures an even cutting action. Each
knife is protected against foreign objects and can be exchanged without
the need for special tools. A blockage can be easily removed by pivoting
the chopping unit (hydraulic actuation optional). For sharpening the
chopping unit can be easily lowered and for more major maintenance jobs,
the unit can be placed on special service wheels.
The only loader wagon with a camless pick-up
The new 1.80 m camless pick-up benefits from galvanizing ensuring
protection from corrosive crop residues. The benefit of a camless
pick-up is the vast reduction in moving parts meaning that the pick-up
is maintenance free. The unit consists of five rows of spring tines
which are positioned 54 mm apart to ensure unrivalled raking action
giving even, gentle crop flow. The ability of the unit to float combined
with its pneumatic pickup wheels ensures precise ground contour
following.
Ergonomic controls for relaxed and safe operation
The main functions of the Tigo S are hydraulically controlled via
spool valves which may be either cable or electromagnetic actuated.
- Floor chain (standard)
• Pick-up (standard)
• Tail gate (standard)
• Deflecting draw bar (option)
• Superstructure (option)
Heavy duty floor chains for quick unloading
The floor chains, with their infinite speed control, operate almost
without any noise. Two 10 mm chains, with a breaking strength of 12.5
tonnes each, and robust carriers ensure that the wagon is unloaded
quickly and safely.
Lely Tigo ST
The Tigo ST has been specially designed for use on the steepest
slopes. To cope with the special demands of alpine farmers the Tigo ST
was designed. T stands for ‘Tieflader’ and refers to the especially low
centre of gravity of this particular type of loader wagon.
Wide track width – low centre of gravity
Thanks to their low centre of gravity and 2,120 mm track width, the
Tigo ST models are the ideal loader wagons to operate on steep slopes.
Depending upon the model, the loading floor height is approximately 25
to 40 cm lower than a standard model, this ensures sufficient stability
when working on extremely steep slopes.
Lely Tigo S Options
Hydraulic hitch drawbar
For maintaining a level machine on uneven ground. Floor clearance up to 70 cm.
Hydraulic roughage superstructure
Can be folded directly from the tractor cab.
Top limiting cover
Secure retention even of short cut crops due to the top limiting cover.
Castor action pick-up guide wheels
For optimum control when turning: the castor action pick-up guide wheels relieve the strain on the pick-up.
Wind guard with short crop roller
For optimum fodder flow, even when operating at higher speeds.
Electromagnetic control
Direct switching of all functions from the tractor cab via a control box (load sensing possible!).
‘Wagon full’ alarm
A sensor on the tailgate reports ‘Wagon full’ via an alarm on the electrical control box.
Hydraulic chopping unit
The hydraulically lowered chopping unit ensures quick removal of fodder accumulation.
