Lake Erie Portable Screeners introduced the Pitbull PB678 Static Grizzly compact screen.
The PB678 Static Grizzly is a smaller version of the PB148 and pairs with the Pitbull 2300 screening plant. The screen includes features for easy bar removal or adjustments as well as transportability, the company says.
“There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to the jobsite; we try to supply heavy duty products in a variety of sizes to help operators find the perfect fit for their needs,” says Stuart Foradora, a factory representative at Lake Erie Portable Screeners. “Our setup allows customers to swap bars in minutes and lift lugs make transportation a breeze, making the PB678 an efficient solution for landscapers, municipalities, rental agencies and other outfits looking for a compact grizzly.”
The company says it installs each of the screen’s 18 bars with two sets of bolts and nuts driven completely through the bar and support, which saves time during spacing adjustments and replacements. The grizzly bars are also self-cleaning and rest on an angle to create a diamond shape and tapered openings.
The Grizzly is constructed with standard “D” ring lift lugs for easier transportation and positioning. Chains attached to the lugs can be lifted with a front-end loader, excavator or crane. Because of its compact size, the company says the PB678 fits on smaller trailers that pull behind pickup trucks or 1-ton rigs.
Lake Erie Portable Screeners says the PB678 includes a 6-ft. x 8-ft. deck area and a 7-ft. x 2-in. tip height. The bars are each 2-in. wide with ¼-in. wall thickness and come with a standard spacing of 2-in. minus. Additional bars are offered if smaller openings are required.
