Harvest:

Choose one of the two suggested harvest methods:

Sequential: Pick fruits from the bottom of the trees using orchard carts, then use the platforms and pick fruits from the top. Create a set for up to 6 bins and use it as one long platform. Workers can walk freely between multiple units, without stepping down on the ground.

Simultaneous: Make a set with carts & platforms and pick all fruits from the top and bottom of the trees in a single pass! It is recommended to use the same working length for the carts and the platforms. The platforms can also be used for transporting full bins to the storage.

Pruning:

Connect 6x PS-1/2S or 4x PS-2/2S platforms and get a 20 meter long platforms set. The longer the set, the fewer times it needs to be moved. Turn off the tractor’s engine for better fuel economy and enjoy the silence while pruning the trees. The system is especially beneficial for small crews. Even 1 or 2 people can handle it and get impressive efficiency!

Our best recommendation for a harvesting setup is Orchard Cart With 4-Wheels Steering W3/4S with 4-wheel steering. These are used for picking fruit from the ground level. After fruit is harvested from the lower parts of the trees, you then need a hydraulic platform to finish the job and pick fruit from the top of the trees. Our Hydraulic Orchard Platform PSH-3 is best in it’s class. Amazing quality and features! This platform is a great compliment for any remote/auto steering systems for tractors.
