The Geelong-based manufacturer has added a hydraulic-fold auger to the 2.5 tonne capacity cart, called the Feed King. The two-bin Feed King can handle a bulk bag in each of its two bins and with optional load cells, it is capable of auto batching, or feeding out a preset amount of feed.

The new Feed King includes a 3.6m auger (available in 15cm and 20cm diameters) that uses hydraulic drive which means no more messing around with cables or lifting augers. The auger folds neatly between the bins too.
