INTRODUCTION
CONTENTS
Thank you for purchasing the Terrateck RJP 80M harvester. We hope that this machine will bring you complete satisfaction
thanks to its user-friendly features and manoeuvrability.
The
Terrateck RJP 80M babyleaf harvester
is designed for occasionally harvesting babyleaf crops, i.e. the various multicut sa-
lads (mesclun, purslane, spinach).
Equipped with an 80cm wide cutter bar, this babyleaf harvester cuts the plants cleanly and precisely. The cutter bar and pick-up
reel height are adjustable according to the height of the vegetation in order to comply with the different harvesting standards.
Designed and assembled in our workshop, the babyleaf harvester is a lightweight manoeuvrable tool.
The Terrateck RJP 80M babyleaf harvester meets the requirements of producers in terms of speed and consistent cutting qua-
lity. By mechanising the harvesting process, our RJP 80M babyleaf harvester can cover 30 metres in 120 seconds.
Thanks to its electric motor, the Terrateck RJP 80M babyleaf harvester complies with environmental standards by eliminating
the harmful exhaust gases that would be discharged from a combustion engine in a confined environment (production green
-
houses).
