This 4Bale Trailer Mounted EZ Ration Processor has a Discharge Hood and independent floor scales. —The 4Bale unit does not require a high horse power tractor, a 100 to 120 horse power tractor with 16 gpm hydraulic output is sufficient. It requires one set of hydraulic outlets to drive the floor chains and a thousand speed PTO drive to run the knives and discharge conveyor. Like all EZ Ration Processors, it can blend two different types of hay/feed in any desired ratio and is probably the most problem free processor on the market.

The 6-Bale Trailer Mounted EZ Ration Processors comes standard with a single axle and duals. Scales, a grain bin attachment with a hydraulic or manual grain bin lid, a second axle with suspension system, 8in knife hood extension for stacking 3x4s or feeding round bales, and hydraulic or manual discharge hoods, are all options.
6Bale or 12Bale Trailer Mount EZ Ration Processor with Tandems and a Suspension System
The 6bale trailer mount with tandems and a suspension system has been our most popular model and rightfully so.
The tandems and the suspension system allow for a much smoother ride and better weight distribution, which also adds to the longevity of the unit. When the 8in knife hood extension that comes with the tandem axle option is installed 3×4 bales can be laid on their side and stacked, turning the 6-bale into a 12-bale unit. While still allowing the floors to run independently and create varying blends from two different types of hay. (the 8in knife hood extension is not installed and shown in the picture)
Scales, a grain bin attachment with a hydraulic or manual grain bin lid, and hydraulic or manual discharge hoods, are all options as well.

Just have your electrician wire it into your system and you are good to go. Scales are an option. The Scale option comes with two complete scales systems that weigh the bales on the left floor separate from the bales on the right floor, which provides assistance in the blending of varying ratios by weight.
Options
Stake Pockets
Stake Pockets give the producer the option of adding sideboards on one side and down the middle — With the sideboards the producer can feed silage on one side and a bale of hay/feed on the other side and mix the two in any desired ratio—If silage is an option where you live go to our EZ Ration Calculator page and put in you own hay/feed and silage test and see just how cheap you could feed– We have had customers that have really hit a home run utilizing the EZ Ration Processor to blend silage with dry processed roughage
Grain Attachment
Our Grain Attachment gives the producer the option of adding grain in various amounts to the ration while delivering it to the feed bunk. – It is available on both the Trailer Mounted and the Truck Mounted models. There is a air activated lid option available on the Truck Mounted version as well — Adding the Grain Attachment to your EZ Ration Processor really increases your feeding options — From helping the cows out with a little extra energy from time to time to helping that first calf heifer breed back to weaning/growing your calves to putting a pound or two on the old cull cow or bull before they go to market, it is well worth the extra money!
Independent floor scales
Our new scale ready model EZ Ration Processor is designed with the floor split so the producer can weigh the hay on the left floor chain independently from the hay on the right floor chain* a third scale system can be added for the grain attachment** now the producer will know the exact amount of each feed source fed.
Discharge hoods
* Manual
* Air Activated
(for truck mounted EZ Ration Processors)
* Hydraulic Activated
(for Tractor Pulled EZ Ration Processors)
Our discharge hoods allow you to feed processed hay during high winds and still get the hay in the bunks or a nice windrow.
(not avialable on Pickup Pull Models)
Knife Hood Extension for stacking 3x4x8 bales
Knife Hood Extension for stacking 3x4x8 bales
The 8 inch Knife Hood Extension allows the producer to stack the mid sized 3x4x8 bales dramatically increasing the amount of hay that can be processed – blended and fed in one loading — you can note by the picture a conventional 4x4x8 bale in front and the 3x4x8 bales stacked behind – Note the knife hood extension is all that is needed for stacking the midsized bales on 4 and 6 bale truck models and the 4 bale trailer model — However the 6 bale trailer model requires the stacking kit which includes this extension as well as a second axle and other items listed below under that option
Tandem Axle with a Suspension System for 6Bale Trailer Mount
This has been a very popular option for 6Bale trailer mounts even if the customer does not plan on stacking the 3×4 bale and turning it into a 12Bale unit. The smoother ride and better weight distribution certainly add to the longevity of the unit.
Stacking Midsize Bale Kit Option for 6 bale Trailer mount
The tandems, the suspension system, and the 8in knife hood extension are all part of the Stacking Midsize Bale Kit and are recommended when you want to stack 3x4s and have a 12bale unit.
Super singles
Some customers have been requesting Super Single tires for more flotation and they are now an option on Tractor Pull EZ Ration Processors
Wings
Wings are an option. They are heavy metal doors behind the knife drum housing that prevents any spillage off the side while processing the bales — Feedlots prefer them to keep any spillage out of the alleyways
Delivery / Trucking
We can help you find a trucker or trucking company if need be. We have a several affiliated trucking companies and independent truckers that have delivered numerous EZ Ration Processors to other customers in the past.
If you have your own trucks or have a company that you like to use, we will help you get them all the information they will need.
Most EZ Ration Processor models will require a step deck and, in some states, wide load permits are required. Every EZ Ration Processor (tractor pull or truck mounted) is 11 feet 6 inches wide. The tractor pull models are typically 10 feet 6 inches tall. The truck mounted units can vary according to the trucks they are mounted on. The length and weight can vary according to the model and options.
Wide load permits are generally not required by the end user after delivery when the product is in use, because it is an implement of husbandry, (you feed cattle with it) –check your state regulations.
