• Single drop harvester - A single belt efficiently moves fruit to the cleaning system and the 8040 boasts the lowest fruit drop (in inches) of any harvester.
• Side Guard Lower Belts - These optional guards reduce fruit rubbing and retain the highest quality blueberries.
• Ultra Low Loss catchers - The 8040 gets the catchers lower on the plant and field tests prove this system retains more fruit than the competition.
• Simple, easy to operate - The 8040 features easy to use controls and a reliable harvesting platform.
• Picking system choices - Your choice in picking heads, including the industry-leading Orbirotor, allows you to customize the 8040 to your field conditions.
• Nose cones and cane lifters - The low profile nose cones and cane lifter design gently transitions the plant into the picking tunnel to maximize fruit retention.
