Freedom Series 3210 Citrus Harvester saves time, avoids fruit damage
The OXBO Freedom Series 3210 Citrus Harvester is a tractor rear semi-mounted continuous canopy shaker used to remove fruit grown for processed juice. Suited for use in older and mixed tree age groves, the 3210 quickly removes fruit and drops it to the ground. Fruit removal requires only 14 seconds per tree with no lost time between trees. The harvester mounts to a rigid tractor sub frame and has a hydraulically adjustable rear axle width for stability. Automatic frame leveling maintains effective fruit removal over varied grove terrain. Operator or automatic control of shaker position into the tree with manual shaker height control makes high removal possible. The harvester's four rotating sweeps gently move fruit from the wheel tracks avoiding damaged fruit. Shaker and ground speed are adjustable to achieve fruit removal above 92 percent. The harvester saves up to 20 cents per box cost of fruit harvesting over manual in-tree removal.
