2024 Unverferth FE/FX Forced Ejection Scrapers

The Forced Ejection FE (dolly-wheel hitch) and FX (drawbar hitch) lines are the most popular scrapers in the lineup. They are designed for precision earthmoving, with the ability to transport soil any distance, and allow the operator to unload at a precise depth with an exact amount of material.

Features may include:

• The FE line features a rugged, two-wheel dolly hitch for quick hookup and front scraper support. The dolly hitch relieves the tractor of drawbar weight, eliminating the need for drawbar reinforcement, and serves as a gauging device for the cutting blade. It is available with 5-, 7.5- and 10-cubic-yard capacities.

• For enhanced traction, the FX line features a drawbar style hitch for increased weight transfer from the scraper to the tractor drawbar. Increased weight transfer combined with the short coupling of the FX scraper’s heavy-duty hitch creates a highly maneuverable machine. Available in 5- and 7.5-cubic-yard capacities, the FX scraper line is a perfect pairing for MFWD tractors.

• With up to 13” of ground clearance and a wide stance, the FE and FX scrapers can navigate the roughest job sites as well as provide maximum access for routine maintenance. Available in 7- or 8-foot cutting widths and 5- to 10-cubic-yard capacities, Orthman forced ejection scrapers offer large machine features in a lower horsepower, affordable configuration.

• The FE/FX scraper ejector wall and gate are designed to be easily controlled, using a single tractor SCV. The hydraulic sequencing valve simultaneously controls the opening of the front gate and the ejector wall for ease of use.

• 775 and 8120 scraper models are equipped with oversized rear tires for maximum flotation (8120 – 21.5L x 16.1 14 ply, 775 – 16.5L x 16.1 10 ply), and are mounted to heavy-duty 8-bolt hubs. Equipped with massive 3” spindles with 8,000 lb. rated hubs, 775 and 8120 models carry heavy loads in the harshest conditions with ease.

• FE model scrapers are equipped with a massive dolly-wheel swivel, positioned ahead of the front axle to reduce hitch hop for more pulling power. For even more pulling performance, an Orthman “perfect hitch” is standard equipment, providing maximum flexibility with no performance-robbing hitch slack.
