Three point attachment extension
Slurry mixer frame extension Longhorn type
Application:
For open elevated slurry tanks with an external height of 3.75 m above the tractor working area. Without a frame extension a slurry tank can be mixed at a height of approx. 0.35 m above the tractor working area.
Depending upon the size of the tractor, a mixer tower is necessary for mixing containers with a lip height of approx. 0.50 m.
An alternative solution here is the slurry mixer frame extension. When using the frame extension, each Buschmann slurry mixer with a three-point hitch (except the lagoon booster and F-168) can be extended to a maximum length of 16 m for use in open pits. For third-party products only after technical clarification.
We recommend the use of a mixer with a pusher propeller. If a mixer with an open mixing propeller is used (type E2-102) we recommend fitting a reinforced propeller skid.
Advantages of the slurry mixer frame extension:
- Existing KBM slurry mixers with a three point bracket can be used
- More flexible range of applications
- Various container heights can easily be accommodated
- Lower acquisition costs than for a mixer tower

The basic equipment you will need will be a slurry mixer frame extension, two drive shafts and a hydraulic cylinder with connector hose or a tractor with hydraulically adjustable upper links. The hydraulic upper links are necessary to lift the frame over the obstacle. Without this, it can be used as a pure extension. A wide-angle drive shaft on both sides between the frame extension and the mixer is essential. The necessary drive shafts can be supplied as accessory items.
The tank heights that can be reached may vary according to the type of tractor used.
