The Tow & Blow frost fans are more efficient than conventional frost control methods in the horticulture and viticulture industries, using only 5 litres of diesel per hour. Auto start/stop is a standard feature on these frost protection machines, further enhancing efficiencies.
Servicing is simple. The boom is lowered to ground level to service the engine and impeller.
Extended fuel lines available for remote fuel tanks set up.
