Why buy a Sittler Compost Turner?

Here are a few reasons:

•  The side scrapers are long, adjustable and shaped to be of maximum efficiency in moving the excess on the sides back into the windrow. 

•  Square tubing is used for structural reinforcement and strength. This prevents the turner from twisting or going sideways in a heavy windrow. The tubing also ensures the longevity of the machine as it holds everything together and in place. Protects the roof from caving and the machine from buckling.

•  Sittler has incorporated a double spiral of the drum knives to ensure balancing, even under very adverse conditions such as an extremely dense, large windrow.

•  Extended knife holders 2 inches longer provide extra holding strength

•  Drum knives made of hardened steel are 2" shorter and reversible. Turning the knives at ¾" ensures longer performance and that the windrow remains clean right down to the ground - no possibility of a smelly, anaerobic layer forming.

•  The gearboxes are also protected and are part of the machine, not a separate large box.

•  The Sittler drum has been tested in a live situation where rice was thrown into the windrow.  After one turn, samples were taken from various parts of the windrow    and placed onto a clean surface. It was immediately evident that the mixing was very thorough with even distribution throughout the windrow.

•  The smaller machines model 507 and model 509 can be towed on most roads so it is not necessary to lift them. The 512 and 1014 can be transported on a flatbed.
