Farmers and contractors know that rolling paddocks is essential for pushing stones down and repairing pugging after wet conditions. Traditionally, this job has been done with heavy, water-filled flat rollers but there’s a better way. Enter the Transfer Roller concept, a proven system that’s been delivering results for years.
What Makes the Transfer Roller Different?
Unlike a standard flat roller, the Transfer Roller works on a completely different principle:
- Mounted on 3-Point Linkage (3PL):
Instead of towing a heavy roller, the Transfer Roller connects to your tractor’s 3PL. This allows you to transfer some of the tractor’s weight onto the roller, increasing downward pressure without relying solely on water ballast. - Speed Matters:
Operating at 10–12 km/h, the Transfer Roller uses impact force to push stones and lumps down more effectively. The faster speed also means you cover more ground in less time—boosting efficiency and reducing fuel costs. - Smaller, Stronger Drum:
The roller drum is smaller in diameter, which means the steel is bent tighter and is harder to dent than conventional rollers.
Why It’s a Game-Changer
- Better Results:
Higher impact at speed means stones and pugging are dealt with quickly and effectively. - Time & Money Savings:
Faster operating speeds and reduced bogging risk mean less downtime and more productivity. - No More Getting Stuck:
Hit a wet patch? Simply lift the roller on the 3PL and keep driving. No more dragging a heavy water-filled roller through mud.
The Big Advantages
- Efficiency: Cover more hectares per hour.
- Durability: Smaller drum design resists dents.
- Flexibility: Lift and go in wet conditions.
- Proven Concept: Farmers have trusted this system for years.
Why We Love It
The Transfer Roller is a clever solution that combines speed, impact, and adaptability. It’s not just rolling—it’s rolling smarter.
