The Schuitemaker Multi-Purpose Loader Wagon is one of the most common machines Schuitemaker has to offer. The precision chop loader wagon, marketed under the Rapide brand name, has been in production since 1986. The Rapide is a dual-purpose precision chop loader wagon and silage wagon. The quality and finishing of these machines are second to none. Made to suit the modern dairy farmer and contractor for troublefree farming. There are several different sizes to choose from the Rapide 55 to the Rapide 8400. The Rapide is not only suitable for the gathering and cutting of all sorts of grass but also for the transport of heavy silage products during the harvesting of maize. Because the trailing pick-up folds away against the bottom of the wagon a maximum ground clearance is created which is a must when harvesting on wet ground. The cutting system of the Rapide has a maximum of 43 knives and guarantees a cutting length of 4,4 centimeters for all the grass in the wagon. The compact construction and the placing of the tandem or tridem give the Rapide wagon an optimum weight distribution and therefore the tractor always has sufficient pressure on the rear wheels.
