Combine Attachment Improves Grain Feed
Grain Grabber 2 by Reitzel Tractor will transform an auger into a full-finger auger for pennies on the dollar. “Kenny Reitzel actually invented these,” says Elli Altaffer, Reitzel Tractor, LLC representative. “They’re a special attachment you can put on your combine head. It helps with combining and reducing slugging.”
The Grain Grabber 2 helps run the reel up higher and out of the crop, reducing shatter and increasing overall yields. This feeds the grain evenly, reduces slugging, and makes it possible to run longer at night.
Grain Grabbers are sold individually and in kits with all necessary hardware. Each kit consists of the Grain Grabbers, four washer-headed, self-tapping bolts per grain grabber (plus two extras), and a 15/64 drill bit. The pieces are easy to install, made in America, and designed to fit most grain head brands. Each base is 2 1/2 in. by 6 1/4 in. and 4 in. tall at the top of the point.
The kits range in price from $192 (20 ft., six Grain Grabbers), $256 (25 ft., eight Grain Grabbers), and $320 (30 ft., 10 Grain Grabbers). Individual orders ($32) contain one Grain Grabber, a 15/64 drill bit, and six bolts. The orders include complete assembly instructions. “They’re manufactured locally,” says Altaffer. “We ship all over the USA and Canada.”
Interested readers can contact Grain Grabber directly for personal guidance. “Kenny has figured out how many a person needs depending on the head size,” says Altaffer. “We even offer them in red, green, or black, depending on the brand or preference. We’ll help guide installation as you need to install them correctly to benefit feeding.”
