It works by moving the grain through three cylinders. These are interchangeable and have holes along them. Whichever size holes you have dictates what falls through the cylinder or sieve and what remains inside it. The different sizes are then sent to different spots. For example, the seed into the truck and the seconds into the sheep feeder. It's a very handy tool to have but sometimes it's not quite big enough for the jobs we have so we employ a professional seed cleaner on occasion as well.
Life on the Land is my way of letting you into the world I live and work in. If you want to know about something we do on the farm, leave a comment, and I'll do my very best to answer it. I hope you enjoy reading about my adventures. Please share it with your friends and family, the more people who understand farming, the more support the industry will have. (Everything I speak about here is first hand experience, if I haven't attempted the job before I will say so.)
