www.potatogrower.com 21 SPUDNIK EQUIPMENT COMPANY Model 4400 Bulk Bed Spudnik Equipment Company, LLC, in Blackfoot, Idaho, has been supplying the industry with quality bulk beds for over 35 years. The model 4400 bulk bed has been added in addition to the model 4200, which has been the industry standard for many years. The 4400 is completely redesigned with a new look and enhanced drive system. A 30-inch wide discharge belt is standard and is offered in lengths from 20 to 26 feet. The bed has a full-length, hydraulically operated side door to allow for easy loading in the field, and a hydraulic end door is used to meter the flow of product out of the bed. The unloading speed is optimized with the torque required to unload the bed. The unloading belt starts out slow, providing the highest amount of torque required, and then automatically speeds up as the torque requirement decreases. This results in much faster unloading time. A straight or tip-down discharge is available, and the bed comes standard with LED clearance lights. Contact Spudnik at www.spudnik.com. SAFE-T-PULL Safe-T-Pull is an innovative towing system that makes pulling stuck vehicles and equipment through wet or sandy conditions easy and safe. The Safe-T-Pull system consists of a truck hitch that fastens on a truck's existing tow hook mounts, providing a centralized loop to pull from, and a hydraulically operated tow bar that mounts to the drawbar of a tractor, payloader or bulldozer. This system saves time and money—plus gives the added safety of eliminating dangerous ropes, chains and cables. It is strategically designed to pull from both frame rails, reducing the risk of damage. Also, the entire system is completely operable from the comfort of the cab of the truck, tractor or loader—no need to get out to hook up. Drivers can even unhook on the go!
