Full Product Description


Front Lifting Unit With Paddle & Square Bar

The configuration comprises of an onion lifting unit at the front end, complete with a square bar and paddles for gently conveying the crop into the machine. The unique selling point (USP) of the ScanStone Panther is the individual hydraulic control of each of the lifting unit’s functions; independently controlled square bar; independently controlled intake web and independently controlled flappy paddle.

The square bar is also market leading because it is driven with a sturdy belt, this means that in dusty conditions there is no abrasive effects with an oil and greasy chain mixing with dust, sand or earth. The belt allows the square bar to drive at the optimum height without having a hydraulic motor too close to the ground. Manual depth wheels carry the lifting unit to a set height.


Main Web With Rocker Agitator & Transfer Web

Following on from the lifting unit, the crop is then conveyed to a longer main web. This web has a rocker agitator to help separate any last bits of soil or root balls. This long web then passes onto another mechanically driven web before going onto the hydraulically controlled transfer web and then into the cart elevator.


High Capacity Cart Elevator

The new cart elevator from ScanStone comes with higher and stronger active fingers on the sides to keep all the crop safely inside the elevator before it reaches the trailer.


Self-Centering Lane Adjuster Ram

A self-centering lane adjuster ram is at the operator’s finger tips on a joystick control. This ensures the crop is always loading exactly into the middle of the lifting unit without missing anything at either side. Once the joystick is released the machine will automatically re-centre itself for smooth continuous harvesting. This feature can be switched on or off from the comfort of the cab.


Turret Style Steering GPS Ready

The robust turret style steering system is fully controlled from a proportional joystick on the control box, this allows precise steering control if the machine is being controlled manually. The steering gear on the Panther machine, like all ScanStone trailed machines comes GPS ready.

The turret system has 8 stud axles which are simply adjusted to various track widths.


Premium Features
The Panther is fitted with the usual ScanStone premium features such as LED road lights, working lights and centralised grease banks for bearings as part of the standard equipment. The colour screen control box features an auto levelling system, full headland management system and simple joystick controls.
