Harvester

Description

The new Harvester trailer range has been engineered and priced to compete across the wider UK trailer market, while maintaining the exceptional design and build quality that Larrington Trailers are known for.

Like every Larrington trailer, the Harvester range is built from S275 steel that is folded and formed on our 8‑metre brake press and cut on our 8‑metre plasma cutter. This allows us to manufacture the body from a single piece of steel—unlike many competitors who weld together smaller sections. The result is a stronger, cleaner, and more durable trailer from the very start, with a superior finish to match.

The chassis is constructed from 300 × 150 × 8 mm RHS S355 steel. While the overall concept is similar to what some competitors use, we have incorporated several key improvements that enhance strength, longevity, and performance.

The half‑pipe body design of the Harvester trailer significantly reduces the tipping height required when unloading grain in to low buildings. The radiused sides allow the crop to flow out at a lower tipping angle—around 18% —this enables the load to clear more efficiently. This reduces the need to pull out of the shed, reset, and tip again to empty the trailer fully, making the unloading process faster, safer, and far more efficient.

We are delighted with the response the Harvester range received at all the shows. Before making your next trailer purchase, visit your local Larrington Trailers dealer or contact us direct and see the Harvester for yourself. We are confident you will be impressed by the quality, design, and attention to detail.

Swivel Drawbar Stand.
Swivel Drawbar Stand that folds up; out of the way, and does not need removing. Preventing you from misplacing or losing your drawbar stand.

The Perfect Ride.
All harvester trailers are fitted with an adjustable Sprung Drawbar, allowing you to easily change the drawbar’s angle should you change the height of your tractor, or the trailer’s tyres size. This ensure the correct weight is on the drawbar at all times giving you a smooth ride, no matter what tractor driving, no matter what tyres you have fitted.

Carefully Thought Out.
The hydraulic hoses run within a channel under the chassis. This keeps them safe while being easy to get to. Nothing hidden away inside the chassis frame.

Single Tipping Ram.
Since 1996 we have been building trailers with a single tipping ram, and these trailers are no exception. They have a five-stage 175mm bore ram which needs less than 100psi of oil pressure per ton to lift the loaded body to an angle of 60°. Our competition only lift their bodies to 50° and use a much greater amount of oil pressure to push their bodies ‘off’ their chassis.

100mm 4-leaf Suspension As Standard.
A major amount of improvement is the design of the suspension. Other manufacturers fit springs that are only 76mm wide and range from three to four leaf, so depending upon the position and width of track, users can experience body roll. Larrington Trailers have designed the Harvester trailer for maximum stability by fitting a 100mm wide four leaf spring which stiffens up the suspension and reduces body roll.

Commercial Axes As Standard.
Full commercial ten stud axles are fitted as standard. These have the 420 x 180 brakes set at 2M track. This helps to further increase the stability, and means we can offer you the single line hydraulic brakes or twin line air brake systems.

No Joins in the Floor, no ‘Snags’ in crops.
The body is formed in full lengths of steel with the two side plates formed from 4mm. The single bottom floor plate is formed from 6mm plate. This offer a very smooth exit for all crops from the inside of the body and particularly when tipping potatoes which can be damaged by cross welds which other trailer manufacturers use to join the floor sheets.

High Visibility Grill.
Full vision front grill with plastic cover, which can be removed when using the trailer with root crops is included.

Secured Taildoor.
A newly designed taildoor which lifts the door upwards first and then pivots the door open. This idea is in use by other manufacturers and is well tried and tested but Larrington Trailers have gone one stage further; welded bushes that turn against the holding plates when the door closes reduce the wear on the locking pins. The holding plates can also be adjusted to maintain the seal around the door’s edge. This is unique to the Larrington build and design, helping to reduce wear, maintenance, and down-time !
