Ejector Scrapers4-Tire Ejector Scraper
For decades, contractors have had the choice to move material with conventional self-propelled scrapers or rigid and articulated trucks and excavators. John Deere scraper tractors and scrapers are a valuable third solution for contractors, allowing them to move the same material using half the labor and half the investment.
The John Deere scraper system is an independent earthmoving system requiring one operator to load, transport, and spread the materials on a job site. Self-propelled and truck/excavator earthmoving systems need additional support equipment to assist with loading and spreading the materials, increasing labor requirements. This also has a positive impact on fuel burn and daily operating expenses.
Applications for the John Deere scraper systems are as follows:
John Deere scrapers are designed to handle the harsh conditions of top-loading scrapers. Top-loading scrapers can have major advantages, allowing you to work in a variety of conditions while moving more material than some other options.
While top loading has its advantages, it should be approached differently than self-loading. Heavily shielded hydraulic lines, cylinders, and components provide protection when top loading needs arise. Top-loading produces a force caused by the weight of the material falling into the scraper. With the scraper sitting on the ground, this force travels into the ground through the frame of the scraper. If the scraper is in the raised position, the force could cause extreme hydraulic pressure spikes, which can severely damage the hydraulic system of the scraper tractor and scraper.
During top loading procedure, make sure the scraper blade is lowered and resting on the ground.
John Deere scrapers are a valuable part of any construction fleet, whether as the primary mover or a complement to other equipment. Scrapers excavate, carry, spread, and grade material, making it the most efficient and versatile machine on any job site. The John Deere scraper line up provides the power of choice by offering 12 Scraper models to suit a variety of operational needs.
Just as contractors have adopted scrapers for their exemplary cost and productivity, miners look for greater efficiency when moving dirt or mined material. Scrapers are an excellent way to strip and reclaim overburden in pit mines or to simply haul stockpiled mined material such as coal.
John Deere scrapers are built to handle the most unique materials – nimble enough to handle light materials like coal yet rugged enough for heavier materials like wet sea salt.
John Deere scraper systems are perfect for building and covering landfill cells in waste management applications. Waste management companies have experienced tremendous savings by trading in their trucks and excavators for the John Deere scraper system.
Scrapers not only do a great job of creating a cell, but their ability to spread material on grade make it ideal for covering waste. The gang of tires compact the material as it is unloaded and will not destroy haul roads. The scraper’s heavy-duty, rock-lug tires can handle the hazardous conditions found in a landfill. When heavy-garbage trucks deteriorate the offloading ramp, use the scraper blade to grade and rebuild it.
