2024 McHale Silage Feeder & Straw Blower C460

The McHale C460 Trailed Silage Feeder and Straw Blower is the flagship model of the C4 range due to its rugged features, ease of maneuverability and high output for both small and large farming operations.

The McHale C460 Trailed Silage Feeder and Straw Blower has the capacity to carry and blow or feed out two 4ft round bales of hay, straw, silage or haylage is the ideal machine for the farmer who wishes to bed their sheds with straw and feed out bales of hay, haylage or silage.

A key feature on the C4 range is its twin speed independent gearbox, which allows the operator to easily adjust from 280 rpm for feeding silage or hay up to 540 rpm for using the machine to distribute straw for bedding.

The McHale C4 range of machines are ideal machines for feeding silage and hay, the twin speed gearbox allows silage and hay to be distributed exactly where it is desired. The speed of the conveyor is proportionally controlled allowing the operator to adjust feeding speed depending on the material density and composition.

The McHale C4 range of machines can be used to distribute bedding material quickly and efficiently leaving a thick aerated bed of straw. In difficult to access bedding areas, the chute on the McHale C4 range can pass through 300 degrees for ease of bedding. Straw can be blown up to 18m.

Features may include:

All machines in the McHale C4 Silage Feeder & Straw Blower range are fitted with a twin speed gearbox which controls the speed at which the flywheel distributes the material.

The floor conveyor on the McHale C4 Silage Feeder & Straw Blower Range, consists of a hydraulically driven chain and slat conveyor. The speed can be adjusted and the conveyor can be reversed from the tractor cab.

The feed rotor is equipped with 56 blades mounted on seven discs.

The 1.57m diameter flywheel on the McHale C4 Silage Feeder & Straw Blower range is fitted with 6 blowing paddles, which provides a powerful blow for the efficient distribution of material.

The McHale C4 Silage Feeding and Straw Blowing Range is controlled via an Expert control console allowing the operator to control machine operation from the tractor cab.

The McHale C4 Silage Feeder & Straw Blower Range is fitted with a three-stage chute. This design minimises resistance and allows for maximum blow distances to be achieved, especially when blowing straw in confined spaces.

The McHale C4 Silage Feeder & Straw Blower range of machines have the ability to distribute different crop types at different speeds and blow rates keeping horsepower requirements to a minimum.

As the floor conveyor works independently from the rotor, this ensures that fodder can be reversed away from the rotor without disengaging the rotor.

The tailgate on the machine can be used to load a bale without the need for a second tractor.

The McHale C4 Silage Feeder & Straw Blower range of machines are designed to allow the rotor work independently from the flywheel. This allows the flywheel to be at full RPM before any fodder material is fed into the rotor.

An external loading control comes fitted as standard which will allow for the conveyor floor and the tailgate to be operated when removing the netting or wrap whilst loading a bale.
