5 Webber S

Working Width

BOM-5215S 1540mm working width
BOM-5217S 1740mm working width

There are two working widths of destoner available in the ScanStone range; 1540mm wide and 1740mm wide. The most common width for preparing the soil for potatoes is 1540mm width, combined with a wheel track setting of 1.8m. This leaves enough room for 2 or 3 rows of potatoes to be planted and lifted with a standard 2 row harvester. The wider machine is more often used for planting carrots, and normally has a wheel track width of 2 meters. Both the wide and narrow machines are available with the same options.

Country Approval Kit

The country approval kit consists of any necessary equipment for travelling on the road with the machine safely and legally in that country. It allows the customer to obtain the appropriate certificate from the country's Transport Agency.

Standard Drawbar (Without Protection)

KIT-0001 Standard

The newly upgraded drawbar features an 8-hole attachment plate, and a drawbar stand. The drawbar has a single-acting ram and a depth sensor at the side which moves as the drawbar is lifted up and down, so as to measure the distance between the share and the drawbar hitch. This position can be registered so that the share returns to exactly the same position at the start of each row.

Linkage Hitch

KIT-0003 Option

A popular option for some European countries who have ladder hitches on the rear of their tractors, the linkage hitch can be easily picked up on the lower tractor arms, and offers slightly more manoevrability when turning on headlands. The advantage of the linkage hitch is that it marginally shortens the overall length of the machine, and provides extra clearance and depth when required.

Towing Eye

UN-06097 Option

The 6-hole Scharmuller flanged towing eye is the standard hitch attachment for all destoners. It offers strength and reliability, as well as safety both on the road and in the field. The towing eye is the most popular option for attachment to tractors with piton hitches.

Disc Width

The discs can be adjusted by sliding them in or out. The chosen setting depends on the track width and the width of the bed formed by the bed maker.

SET-001 1.50m
SET-003 1.55m (recommended)
SET-004 1.60m
SET-005 1.65m
SET-006 1.70m
SET-007 1.75m

Full Blade Share

BOM-0035 1540mm width (Standard)
BOM-0036 1740mm width (Standard)

The full blade share is extremely heavy duty and made entirely of hardox metal. It is bolted on to the share assembly and onto every arm. Like the multi-blade share, it features a reversible outer share at either side. The full blade share is better if very large stones are to be encountered, as it is a stronger more solid piece of metal. The full blade share has a standard depth of 420mm.

Ultrasonic Depth Control

KIT-0302 Option

The Ultrasonic Depth System consists of a bracket and camera mounted underneath the front beam of the destoner, pointing down to the bed of soil entering into the machine. The camera senses the height of the bed and reacts accordingly, lifting the share up slightly when the bed of soil is too deep, or dropping the share in when it is too shallow. There are various adjustments that can be made depending on user preference. The frequency, range and reactivity of the signal can be adjusted as required. The linear depth system is still mounted on all machines equipped which are equipped with an ultrasonic sensor.

Star Type Stone Box

BOM-0068 1540mm width (Option)
BOM-0069 1740mm width (Option)

Destoners can be equipped with a stone box at the rear of the machine to remove large stones that are too big to place between the plantation beds. The star-type stone box consists of three star shafts which rotate to carry the stones into the stone box. The stone box can be opened and closed from the control box in the tractor cab. The capacity of the stone box is about 900kg. Stone box cameras are available to show the operator when the stone box is full. There is an alert which comes up on the control box if any of the shafts stop turning, as well as reminders for greasing.

Cross Conveyor

UN-03294 20mm Cross Conveyor Web
UN-03295 28mm Cross Conveyor Web

The majority of destoners are equipped with the 20mm cross conveyor web which conveys the stone from the rear web to the ground between the plantation beds. The cross conveyor web is speed and direction adjustable, and the control box can program the cross conveyor to turn on and off automatically on the headlands, as well as reverse automatically if desired. The cross conveyor web is driven by 2 individual hydraulic motors which makes it react more quickly and perform more effectively.

Elevator

The 5 Webber S is available with high-capacity stone removal elevator, for extracting the stone out of the soil and loading it into a trailer. This is useful when stone is needed for a road or building base. The unique length and height of the elevator allows the operator to extract stone during the plantation season, without disturbing the plantation beds.

BOM-0281 Elevator (Option)

Wheels

UN-02649 375/70 R20 +45
UN-06139 375/70 R20 -15
UN-02412 340/80 R20 +45
UN-02900 340/80 R20 -15

The 5 Webber S is equipped as standard with 375/70 R20 wheels, but wider wheels are optional. Depending on the axle width and brake requirements, the offset can be +45 or -15.

Hydraulic Brakes

KIT-0070 1.62m-1.66m Track Width (Option)
KIT-0071 1.67m-1.87m Track Width (Option)

In some European countries, hydraulic brakes are essential for homologation purposes when road travel is required. The 8-stud axles are commercial-style and combined with the brakes, safely allow speeds of up to 50kph.

Parking Brake

KIT-0701 (Option)

For Homologation purposes, all destoners have the option of a parking brake to prevent the machine moving while stationary. The handbrake can be applied when parking on hills or slopes to prevent any risk to the operator when they are standing near the machine.

Fixed Axle


BOM-0046 Standard

The 5 Webber S comes as standard with a fixed axle which does not tilt from side to side. This is appropriate when the machine does not work on steep hills, or if it is not pivotal that the working area is completely flat.

Rear Lift

KIT-XXX Standard

As standard, the rear lift can be lifted up or lowered down to suit the field conditions and to offer a more intense separation in heavier conditions. When working downhill, the soil flows more easily into the machine when the rear is fully down. There is a sensor at the rear of the machine which automatically compensates the position of the share when the rear is lifted or lowered. The operator can easily see the position of the rear with the help of a guide stick mounted on the back of the machine.

Web Pitches - 2nd Web

Standard

Web Pitches – 4th Web

Standard

Fixed Scrubber Web

The 5 Webber S is the only destoner which comes as standard with a fixed scrubber web, which is a non-rotating web hanging above the rear web. This fixed scrubber web has pressure pad rollers which can be lifted or lowered to offer more or less pressure on the rear webs, in order to break down clods travelling up the machine. This type of scrubber web can be fitted onto all other destoner models, if extremely large stones are to be encountered and a dual-directional hydraulic scrubber web is not desired.

LED Work Lighting Kit

BOM-0298 Pair (Option)

Worklights are a useful addition to the destoner when it is necessary to work at night. The work lighting kit consists of two LED lamps which are positioned at each side of the machine frame, so that the operator can see the wheel position as well as the cross conveyor. The worklights can be turned on or off using a soft key on the cab control box. When visibility is poor, the worklights can help keep the machine working straight and ensure that the trash is being deposited correctly.

Centralised Grease System

KIT-XXX Option

The centralised greasing system consists of several grease banks situated around the machine which bring together all the hoses running from the bearings and grease points. This prevents the operator from overlooking any of the bearings which are barely visible or accessible, prolonging the life of the machine and its components. This centralised grease system is referred to as 'easy grease' and while it is not automatic, it speeds up the maintenance process, while offering the precision and reliability which are sometimes missing from an automatic system.

Levelling Bar

The ScanStone web machines traditionally leave a slight dip in the middle of the bed, due to the web band layout, and the axle. For those planting in two rows, this shape is advantageous, as the planter follows the bed more easily, and there is less risk of a blockage where the planter centre share divides the soil. However, when planting other vegetables beside potatoes, or planting in three rows, it is necessary to create a flat even bed. The levelling bar achieves this, as the flat piece of metal hangs freely from the axle, without digging into the soil.

UN-17845 Option

Unique Parts Manual

UN-XXXXX Standard

Each individual destoner comes as standard with a unique parts manual which features the exact specifications and equipment which is mounted on the machine before it leaves the factory. Customers are able to quote their serial number to their parts provider, to ensure that the correct parts are ordered. Not only does this speed up the ordering process, but avoids
