2017 Jamesway Alley Cat XD-Series Drive Units XD-480

2017 Jamesway Alley Cat XD-Series Drive Units XD-480

Used in smaller to medium sized barns, the XD-260 has a 26 diameter drum, giving a maximum stroke of 230 feet using 3/8 cable or 165 feet using cable. The 18 wide drum is thick and runs on pillow block bearings. The #80 roller chain on the drum is powered by a standard-duty gearbox featuring a self-aligning outboard bearing to handle heavy loads.

The XD-260 is equipped with the same great features found on the bigger units. ..1.5 diameter guide screws with external greasing, easy access covers, easy access motor mount, and the ultra-reliable smart switching system.

Jamesway Alley Cat Scrapers have a proven track record with millions of hours of use in dairy barns all over the world, and the new XD-SERIES is even better suited to take on the demands of todays largest operations. Everything about the Xtreme Duty SERIES drive units is bigger, heavier and thicker to stand up to long hours and heavy loads while new dirt-proof sensors and smart controls give you ultra-reliable operation and low maintenance.

The massive gearbox on XD-480 and XD-600 Drive Units easily handles the biggest loads.

The XD-260 gearbox has a self aligning outboard bearing for added support.

All XD gearboxes are filled with synthetic oil for maximum protection in any condition.

Manure cleaning is a tough job, so size matters. Alley Cat XD Series cable drums are made from extra thick steel for long life.

Easy service access means long life... for the equipment and for the operators. Safety shields can only protect you if they are kept in place, so Jamesway uses hinged hoods that are easy to open...and most importantly are easy to close again.

The 1-1/2 diameter lead screw guides cable onto the drum through replaceable hardened steel shoes.

The reversing switch has no moving parts. This sealed cube is impervious to manure or water and can operate fully submerged.
