DeSite SLG 78VF vibratory screener is our midsize portable vibratory screener, designed to be fed with skidsteers, bucket tractors, midsize excavators and compact loaders. Our rugged SLG 78VF will produce 15 to 30 yards per hour depending upon mesh, material being screened, and the type and size of machine feeding the screener. When you see the SLG 78VF up close, you are going to find features built into the design that only found on SLG screeners.
Our Tilting Screen Deck, Feed Deflector System, Cantilevered Spring Suspension, and Grab and Go Portability are all features that set our SLG screeners apart from all other screening machines.
Tilting Screen Deck
An operators ability to manipulate the slope of a screen deck while screening makes for better efficiency and bigger production. That is why all SLG screening machines come fitted with the ability to adjust the screen deck to varying positions for varying materials with varying moisture levels. These topsoil screeners perform well in all soil conditions: wet, dry, sandy, rocky and even frozen soil. To move the material slowly across the mesh bring the screen deck to a flatter position. This works best for screening products like sand. To keep material moving like when screening high moisture soils that can plug a low sloped screen deck you have the ability to bring the DeSite SLG screen deck to a steeper position to keep material from plugging the mesh during the screening process.
Changing the deck slope is quick and easy.
- Loosen the 5 deck mount bolts on each side of the screener.
- Adjust the screen deck to the desired slope.
- Tighten the 5 deck mount bolts on each side and resume screening.
Feed Deflector System
Only on a DeSite screener will you find a Feed Deflection System that funnels material to the top of the screen deck to begin the screening process. Early on in designing the SLG 78, we recognized the need to control and direct the flow of material being screened. Forcing material to the top of the screen deck to begin the process allows for maximum production and maximum efficiency. The feed deflector on the 78VF allows the operator to feed the screener faster and more aggressively. The feed deflector on the 78VF mounts into quick disconnect lugs that allow the feeder to tip forward allowing oversize material pass over the screen deck and into the overs pile. When screening very trashy material will lots of oversize stumps, big roots and construction debris, the feeder can be completely removed turning the screener into a standard deck screen like all others.
Cantilevered Suspension
Another feature you will only find on a DeSite SLG screener is our cantilevered suspension system that allows the screen deck to pivot from 45 degrees for high moisture material all the way back to 30 degrees for sand and soils with low moisture. Only on a DeSite SLG screener does the operator have the ability to flatten the screen deck with the machines bucket while feeding the screener. The cantilevered suspension gives the operator maximum control over the screening process.
The movie below shows the Cantilevered Suspension in action.
Grab and Go Portability
Portability is another key component to production and productivity when using compact equipment to feed a portable screener. Keeping the screener close to the pile being screened cuts travel time back and forth to the pile resulting in higher production and higher profits.The SLG 78VF can be moved easily around the work site using your pallet forks or with your machines bucket using our Bucket Transport Lugs.
The SLG-78VF design has lift pockets for quick and easy movement with pallet forks. We also have designed lift lugs that can be inserted into the lift pocket openings for onsite movement using the bucket on your machine. This gives you the ability to move the screener around the worksite with your bucket so you do not have to change to pallet forks.
The movie above shows the lifting the screener from the riser box and transporting it around the job site.
Versatility
The SLG 78 can be fed with many types and sizes of compact equipment from skidsteers, to excavators, bucket tractors, and compact loaders. The screeners can be fed efficiently from the front, back and from either side. The SLG 78VF can be fed with buckets up to 78 inches wide from the back or front. When wanting to feed the screener from the side with a compact excavator you can use up to a 36 inch wide bucket.

Low Maintenance
The SLG 78VF has only two grease points where the duplexed coil springs pivot allowing the screen deck to go from 45 degrees all the way back to 30 degrees.
More time spent screening and less time doing maintenance means lower operating costs with higher production each day.
Our 3600 rpm electric vibratory packs are sealed away from the elements of dirt and moisture.
A big advantage to our SLG 78 design is the ability to power the screener with a small compact 3500 watt generator. With a good quality 100ft 10 gauge power cord, your generator can be away dust and dirt that is so hard on engines.
Transport
The SLG 78VF has been designed to load length wise or cross ways on the trailer leaving room for your skid steer or compact excavator.
Accessories
Bucket Transport Lugs: $236.55usd
For moving the SLG 78VF around onsite our Bucket Transport Lugs will saves time and the need for having pallet forks onsite. The lugs slide directly into the fork pockets with a retention hole to lock them in place. Once installed you will have the ability to pick up the screener with your bucket and move the screener quickly. No hitch, no wheels, no wiring, and no digging.
18 Inch Riser Box: $1300 USD
Dimensions: 6ft x 8ft x 18in
Weight: 500lbs
Affordability
When you compare design, durability, portability, and maintenance, it is easy to see the SLG 78VF is without a doubt the most cost effective way to turn waste into saleable product. The simplicity of the design, using the perfect balance of vibratory, slope, and gravity makes the SLG 78VF the absolutely best value and fit for working with compact equipment.
Nothing compares with our low price and design.
Warranty
The SLG 78VF is such a rock solid tough screener that we now offer a 2 YEAR REPLACEMENT WARRANTY on the structure and workmanship when under normal use. All electrical components come with our 1 YEAR REPLACEMENT WARRANTY.

Screen Mesh: $450usd
The SLG-78 can be fitted with multiple mesh sizes staring as small as 1/8 inch all the way up to 4 inches. The ability to fit the SLG-78VF with multiple mesh sizes allows screening for sand, topsoil, compost, gravel rock and wood waste. Changing the mesh to an alternate size will take under 10 minutes.
All of our mesh is constructed from 65mn steel for maximum wear using double lock crimp dies for tight durable fit. We offer all the sizes listed below. Custom screen sizes are available on request.
We offer you a wide variety of mesh size for your new DeSite screening machine. From just 1/8 inch to 4 inches with either a square pattern or an elongated mesh. The square pattern produces a more accurate sizing and used is primarily used for gravel and rock, while elongated is designed to handle soils and material with higher moisture. It is important to note that the size of the finished product going through will be smaller than the mesh opening size.
