These two videos were shot during a start up of a High Rise 8000 Contractor model in 2018. As part of our normal delivery service, we connect the machine to the owner's tractor and teach them how to operate the machine. David is using his High Rise 8000 for the first time, picking up smaller loads while he gets comfortable with the way the machine operates.

Living at Grattai near Mudgee I soon learnt about how rocks can be a problem. So, to cure my OCD I researched a more efficient way of removing them from my paddocks. I had looked at using manual labour but to no avail as the younger generation don't understand the issue. My next option was to use a machine, so I set to online looking at all the different makes and models. It was here that I decided that Schulte was by far the best quality for the price. Upon contacting Neil at Schulte, I could not have had a more favourable response. Neil had given up some time out of his very tight schedule and came over from Wellington for a visit. It is here that I learnt so much more to the point that I convinced my wife that we should not only purchase a rock windrower and rock picker to help on our farm but to put it to work for other farmers. Initially it was a bit daunting but soon became second nature and the satisfaction of cleaning a paddock of rocks is a great feeling. I'm sure Darren and Tony as well as Neil had probably had enough of my consistent phone calls of advice but were always very helpful. Also I have never had a situation where they never had a part I needed (not that there's been many) and have been flexible to the point of staying at the office after hours to lend a hand or for a machinery part pickup. All in all, I am extremely pleased with the equipment and still love operating them and never get tired of the expression on farmers faces when they experience how excellent it works. So, call Rockpicking Central on 0437354595 or 0417225948 and experience the clean paddock feeling. Check out Rockpicking Central at work in the video below. |
