Nov 10, 2022    Posted by Brittany Cunningham

The Delmade Rut Filler is the ideal solution for filling Ruts. It's tough, built right here in Australia with top-grade components and by the best people in the game. Plus, like all the equipment in the Delmade Range it is designed to address one of the common issues that our farmers have found in the field. 

Wheel Ruts cost farms dearly in productivity, repair bills and valuable time. All of which can be prevented with a post-harvest maintenance program using a Rut Filler and filler material.

Our customers say using a Delmade Rut Filler has saved a huge amount of time dealing with Ruts. In fact, Andrew McShane of Stockman Stud says:

"The Delmade Rut Filler is absolutely excellent... I would highly recommend it to anyone. It's making pivot irrigators sustainable for us. What was a 10-hour job we can do in under an hour with the Rut Filler. It is the number #1 solution for Wheel Ruts."

The four great benefits of using a Delmade Rut Filler are saving time, saving maintenance, less waste and protecting your pivots.

Time: You will save astonishing amounts of time, which equates to less wages, less Fuel and fewer Machinery hours.

Maintenance: This Heavy Duty machine is simple and has very few moving parts, there is very minimal maintenance which equates to less downtime and lower maintenance costs.

Less Waste: The filler material is applied directly to the rut, there is no wastage and you always get the right amount. The leveller ensures that the Rut is always filled to the correct height with no overfilling.

Protect your Pivots: Because this unit makes everything more efficient you are less likely to put off the task of filling your ruts, which means your irrigators are always running in the best possible conditions without the risk of damage.

The Delmade Rut Filler is built strong. At the base of the bin a is the hydraulic sliding chute. The centre of the filing operation. The chute is controlled from the tractor remotes and one of its key features is the lack of material resistance. This means a large range of fillers to be used from gravel, sand, lime etc without bridging issue. Once the chute is open the flow rate is controlled by the ground leveler so there is no need for any infield adjustments.

The unit is standard with flotation tyres, a site tube for viewing filler levels in the machine, a heavy-duty jack stand which can be spec'd up to hydraulic and an adjustable drawbar for easy height adjustment.

Optional features include a vibrator unit for wet & sticky material, a ladder on the side of the machine for easy hopper viewing and wings for use with a wider bucket when loading.
