2027 Dion Ag Forage Blower 860

Filling without restrictions.
From the intake to the rotor, the 860 blower moves silage with efficiency and capacity.

Overrunning clutch on PTO
Paired with high torque rating PTO shaft, the overrunning clutch protects the blower drive components and the tractor from variations in the load.

Reversable blower band & 8 paddles
The blower band is fabricated in two sections. The ‘wear’ section, between the entry into the fan and the silage ejection point, is made of Hardox 450.  This section is reversible to ensure excellent durability.

The 60 in rotor contains 8 paddles providing a smooth operation and large flow.  Made of heat-treated steel, they extremely abrasion resistant.

Robust drive
The feeding auger is driven by 2 pair of 5VX belts (cogged belts) capable of transmitting all the required power.  All pullies are cast iron, double belted and double bearing mounted for unmatched longevity.  The large 2” diameter auger shaft is supported by premium cast iron, NTN, flange bearings.

Hydraulic wheel adjustment
Independent cylinders lift both wheels without effort. Travel between & set up at the silo has never been so easy. Wheels and tires are mounted on heavy-duty cast iron hubs, equipped with conical wheel bearings ensuring exceptional reliability.

Largest intake table on the market
The rotor capacity means nothing if it’s not fed properly. Dion forage blowers offer an oversized intake table capable or accepting high throughputs without bridging or clogging. The 14″ diameter augers easily outperforms the competition.

Ergonomic and safe

• The auger engagement system is simple and a safe.
• Hinged guards provide easy access for maintenance and adjustments
• PTO shearbolts are stored on the driveshaft guard for handy access
• Forage Blower 860 Model oversized intake

Water intake
Two water intakes are standard equipment on the 860 blowers. They provide lubrication to the rotor band and auger to prevent debris adhesion, accumulation and also reduce power requirement and wear.

The Dion advantage
The 860 provides the following benefits over the competition:

• High inertia, stable operation, less vibrations
• Uniform feeding with the high capacity auger
• More paddles, therefore longer paddle replacement intervals
• High paddle/min frequency resulting in a smooth operation and high air flow
• Competitive price
