EASE OF HANDLING
UNBEATABLE EASE OF HANDLING
Productivity is also about saving you time. The GRAPES'LINE grape harvester is designed from the ground up to give you unrivalled agility and ease of handling, both at work and on the road.
IN THE HEADLAND
• The trailer-style coupling and wide-angle drawbar make headland manoeuvring easy and safe. • The “AUTO TORQUE” drive* controls the power to the wheels, even in headlands, without the need for the joystick.
ON THE ROAD
• The wide-angle drawbar ensures that the tractor + grape harvester is compact enough for transport. • The bin width of only 2.50 metres makes it easier to travel and manoeuvre.
SMART HYDRAULIC MANAGEMENT
HYDRAULIC UNIT
• The machine’s hydraulic unit is autonomous and driven only by the PTO. • The coupling of the hydraulic unit to the tractor’s rear linkage is independent of the grape harvester, making it easy to turn both left and right without having to worry about the height of the machine. • Quick-fit onto the tractor.
• Optimisation of the power take-off (PTO) speed according to the hydraulic needs of the machine to ensure the lowest possible engine speed and save fuel. • An indicator light on the joystick or the touch screen alerts the driver to PTO underspeed in relation to the machine’s hydraulic requirements.

AUTO TORQUE DRIVE SYSTEM*
• The machine adjusts its speed automatically to that of the tractor, depending on the traction force on the towing ring. • The machine is independent in all working situations: forward or reverse, as well as in headlands. • The driver can concentrate on driving. • The “AUTO TORQUE” automatically supplies the power needed at the right time, without the driver having to do anything. • The ‘AUTO TORQUE’ drive can handle gradients of up to 30%.
