With exceptional dimensions, the 2nd generation Stinger spout loads on any side, even the tallest trailers. The accelerator/blower power of the Dion 2430 allows side-loading to considerably reduce trailer switching time for even more productivity.
Dion 2430
Performance of a Dion harvester, with the straight through design, incorporating a Duradrum™ cutterhead using segmented knife technology similar to what is in the current John Deere self-propelled forage harvesters. A model exclusive to the John Deere dealers.
Duradrum™ is a trademark of Deere & Company. The Duradrum™ cutterhead drum has been modified to fit into the Dion PTFH.
