Collection heads showing the lever that switches the flow of cotton to each bag while one is being replaced the other will be filling with the test cotton seeds. Hybrid seeds made by Monsanto in this case are collected to make new strains of crops.
That's a 2-ton Turbo Diesel Air Compressor mounted on the back! 1" hoses come out of it to clean out any residue left in the shoots to keep the seed batches pure.
I had to make a new platform to work off of, the entire thing must be able to be transported so the sides fold up and the tube structure has to be able to move down when moving it and back up to work with. This holds the extra shoots or duct work.
This is a cotton picker that I converted into a cotton seeder. The 2 sides fold up and all that guard rail folds down, while the entire structure that the shoots are connected to also will move up and down all motorized by hydraulic cylinders.
