Initial Purchase

It has been nearly two months since I purchased my DeSite 68V from your dealer, Linn Laurenson of Lynn-Ray Farms, here in Pennsylvania. The dealership was about 2 hours traveling time, so I wanted to be sure that I had everything that I needed to evaluate it and bring it home. Linn answered my questions before I came, and he was ready, with my unit already assembled and with his small generator sitting beside the unit. Linn also assured me that the unit would fit in my 5 by 8 foot trailer, and could be towed by my SUV over the hills and valleys of Pennsylvania. After a short test run of the unit, I was sold! Time to load it for the journey home!


Just purchased a new screener!

Moving the 68V

Upon arriving at home, I immediately unloaded the unit , got my generator and began to see how this unit would work with my dirt! Unloading presented a bit of a challenge as my Kubota L3100 bucket was only rated to lift 970 pounds! I solved the problem by lifting up the one side, then driving my rig out from in under the Screener!

Screening heavy very wet soil

The following pictures show my first attempts to screen soil. It had just finished raining heavily, so the wet soil presented a bit of a challenge, but over the next few days, I re-screened the rejected pile, claiming about 90% of the good dirt!

10 inches of finely screen top soil and mulch filled my raised garden beds, and produced a thriving garden shown below in less than 30 days!

Impression

I am very impressed with the high quality workmanship, the sturdy structure and the outstanding design of the unit. I was surprised when the dealer said there was no owner’s manual, but now I understand, because there is nothing that requires maintenance!

Larger Machines in the Family

My wife’s youngest son has a gravel pit on his ranch in Moosomin, Saskatchewan. He and I have been talking about these DeSite soil screeners for nearly two years. Of course we have far different needs. As I was preparing this note to you, my wife who is visiting her son, sent me a picture of what he brought into his yard recently – a DeSite 108!

Just got mine a few weeks ago. Its an awesome machine. My dirt pile has large rocks that caused me some concern but the 78VF is very heavy duty and the large rocks slide right off. Even wet dirt like mine will screen nicely as long as the machine is set up properly.

The screener is a “no joke” piece of equipment. Too bad folks can’t see one in person to see the quality before they decide to get one. The pictures and videos don’t show how well built it is. Thanks for the great service. Looking forward to trying it out this afternoon.

I wasn’t expecting delivery until next week. Had fun today sifting a pile of mixed debris. Made some nice topsoil. Also screened some DG. Beautiful job. So pleased with this machine I can’t tell you how much. Hope to get some video soon.

I purchase a 78 inch screen last year from Woodbury Tractor, it has been one of the best pieces of equipment I have purchased.

As with any equipment purchase, you always hope for the best. I have to say your screening machine worked better than I could have ever imagined.
Its ease of operation was simply fantastic. The product it produced was actually better than we could have purchased from local suppliers.
Continued success in 2016.

We did purchase one of your units through Larry Lang in 2014 and we are very pleased with it. We have shown it to several other cemeteries in the area as well.
