Product Description

Gearmore Collard Leaf Remover | Model E1100F.A4 | Working Length 112" | 4 Heads | 100 HP | For Tractor


DESCRIPTION

The Gearmore Collard Leaf Remover E1100F.A4 is a professional orchard management machine engineered for efficient, selective apple leaf removal and improved fruit quality. Featuring a patented ELLIPSE-MULTIROTOR dual-rotor defoliation system, it uses double-flow, low-pressure air generated by a 3-point PTO-driven compressor to remove leaves around apples without damaging the fruit. Its four rotating defoliation heads provide effective coverage of both the exterior and interior of orchard rows, helping improve fruit color development, ripening, aeration, and disease prevention. With a 112-inch (9 ft 4 in) working length, hydraulic head adjustments, and tractor-operated joystick controls, this orchard leaf remover delivers efficient one-pass operation while reducing labor, fuel consumption, and field time. Designed for tractors with a minimum 100 HP, 540 RPM PTO, and hydraulic capacity of 6.6 GPM at 2,320 PSI, it is an ideal solution for commercial apple growers seeking consistent orchard performance.

Key Features

  • Patented Dual-Rotor System: Features the ELLIPSE-MULTIROTOR patented dual-rotor defoliation technology, delivering controlled low-pressure airflow for selective apple leaf removal without damaging fruit.
  • Four Rotating Defoliation Heads: Equipped with four specialized rotating heads designed to remove leaves efficiently from both the exterior and interior of orchard rows.
  • 112-Inch Working Length: Provides an extended 112-inch working length (9 ft 4 in) for effective coverage across orchard rows and improved operational efficiency.
  • One-Pass Leaf Removal: Designed to complete effective fruit-zone leaf removal in one pass, helping reduce repeated field operations, labor requirements, and fuel consumption.
  • PTO-Driven Air Compressor: Operates through a 3-point hitch-mounted, 540 RPM PTO-driven compressor that generates the specialized double-flow, low-pressure air system.
  • Selective Fruit-Zone Defoliation: Directs airflow through orchard foliage at fruit level to expose apples while helping preserve fruit and surrounding vegetation.
  • Hydraulic Vertical Adjustment: Features hydraulic head adjustment with 23.6 inches of vertical travel for adapting defoliation heads to different orchard canopy heights.
  • Hydraulic In-and-Out Adjustment: Provides 17.7 inches of hydraulic adjustment to move the defoliation heads inward or outward for improved positioning within orchard rows.
  • Hydraulic Head Angle Control: Allows hydraulic positioning of the heads from perpendicular to 10 degrees right or left for flexible operating configurations.
  • Adjustable Defoliation Angle: Offers hydraulic angle adjustments up to 31 degrees to accommodate different orchard layouts and working conditions.
  • Stainless Steel Thin-Line Heads: Incorporates specially tapered, thin-line stainless steel heads, approximately 3.5 inches wide, designed to enter dense foliage effectively.
  • Tractor Joystick Controls: Features tractor-operated joystick controls for convenient adjustment and operation of the leaf removal system.
  • Improved Apple Color Development: Helps increase sunlight exposure around fruit, supporting faster coloring, improved ripening, and enhanced orchard fruit presentation.
  • Reinforced Frame and Counterweight: Includes a specially reinforced main beam and counterweight system to improve structural stability during defoliation operations.
  • Complete Installation Accessories: Supplied with mounting pocket brackets, hydraulic hoses, fittings, JIC couplers, and a dedicated storage stand for convenient installation and parking.

Customer photo review of Ranew Outdoors Firminator G3 Planter 4ft, 5ft, 6ft & 8ft | 3 in 1 Food Plot Implement | 3pt Planter | Discs, Seeder & Cultipacker | For Tractor

The week before leaving for my mule deer hunt in Wyoming, I seeded the area surrounding the new runway at Wertheimer Airport in Norman. This past Tuesday, I returned to finish the job and was pleased to see that the seed I planted just two weeks earlier was already germinating and coming up nicely. These pictures show the freshly seeded areas alongside those planted two weeks ago. It’s a great comparison and a good example of what proper seedbed preparation and planting can accomplish. I used my Ferminator G-3, which is one impressive piece of equipment. It prepares the seedbed, plants the seed, smooths the soil, and firms everything up for good seed-to-soil contact—all in one efficient operation. I’ve owned and operated several no-till drills over the years, but I can say without hesitation that the Ferminator is the most efficient and versatile seeding machine I’ve ever owned. There’s something pretty satisfying about returning to a job and seeing those first green shoots coming through the ground. That’s when you know your hard work is paying off!

Customer photo review of Forax Gas Powered Mulcher | Model GP40 | 40" Cutting Width | 14-15 HP | For Tractors

Seems to be in order delivery wasn't able to use lift gate but tractor was able to take pallet off the truck bed. No damage to machine after visual check. won't know how it runs until rain stops. Staff at RippingitOutdoors was very quick to call and double check the type of backet needed for the unit to ensure the online order matched( to fit my skid steer quick attachment on my l2501 Kubota). Explained the teeth & belt could be ordered through them directly over the phone when/if needed as well as selling other types of custom made brackets for Utv's ect. All around Great customer service and would purchase from again.

Customer photo review of Ferntree Mini Excavator Forestry Mulcher | Model FF-L Series | 22"-30" Cutting Width | Machine Size 2.5- 6 Ton | For Mini Excavator

easy buying process and great communication. Mulcher works great, easily clears overgrown brush and even mulched a 5" thick mulberry tree fairly easily. running it off of my old 331 bobcat with no problem powering the drum at all. Only small issue which isn't a big deal is that the supplied hoses are about 16" too short to operate a full range of motion.

Over all built well. I like it is all cast iron and metal and not plastic. Had to modify fertilizer disc mount to fit correctly, nothing major, a little grinding. I modified the center link hitch point to accommodate my John Deere quick hitch. Have yet to plant with it but I’m sure it will work perfect. Love the grease fittings everywhere. Reminds me of the old farm equipment I grew up on, and still use periodically.

Cole 12 MX Multiflex Planter | Model B46-664A / 0120103 | Width 13" | Size: One Row | 3PT Hitch Planter Attachment | Horsepower 25–45 HP | For Tractor

My firminator RT was delivered in good condition in ND. I will be using it next week. I have a 45 HP John Deere tractor that is supposed to lift 2000 lb but really struggles to lift this 6 foot firminator RT. I will just have to use in as a two pass operation for now. I do wish there was a better operating manual for this unit. Maybe that is something you can work on. I will give you an update once I start using it in a few days.

Ranew Outdoor Firminator Rototiller | RT Series | Working Width 4', 6' & 8' | Tiller, Seeder & Cultipacker | Horsepower 24–55 HP | For Tractors

It’s built solid. It handles Field grass hip high pretty well. With the maintaining the field grass after the first cut, the pasture field is starting to look like a lawn. The 84 inch with the best thing to get for 8 acres. It’s best to order belts for back up in the event if the belts were to break. But overall, I like the product quality is good.

Farm-Maxx Grooming Mower | FMR Series | Working Width 48", 60", 72" & 84" | 15-50 HP | For Tractors

When I think of ripping it outdoors something else comes to mind, but I digress. This spreader is awesome. Works like a champ. The hopper is big enough to do my 1 acre lot for my applications. Just load once and go. I would highly recommend this spreader. It saves a ton of time and is a quality product.
