 5 generations of unmistakable professionalism

The Dewulf R3060, 2-row potato harvester, is often imitated but never
equalled. In 1989, Dewulf achieved a milestone with the introduction
of the first self-propelled, three-wheeled, side-mounted potato harvester
with gooseneck control. For this exquisite concept, Dewulf received
the famous Gouden Aar during the 1990 Agribex exhibition in Brussels,
Belgium. The outstanding harvester sets itself apart from the rest
due to its unprecedented manoeuvrability and the ability to
continue harvesting when others were forced to stop.
1989: R3000 Since the ground to be
harvested has not been driven
over, harvesting can be completed
in very extreme conditions without
damaging the potato baulks. The
balanced weight distribution ensures
excellent stability both in the field
and on the road.

Since its launch, we have continued to carefully develop the machine,

1994: R3000S
without detracting from what makes it so unique. In 2014, Dewulf
introduced the completely redesigned version of the reference in
2-row self-propelled potato harvesters. Upon closer inspection of the
machine, it is immediately obvious that the professional user in the field has
been carefully listened to...

Regardless of whether potatoes are harvested for fresh food shops, seed-potato cultivation or the processing industry,
mechanical damage results in significant losses. The R3060 has been designed to allow not only drop heights to be kept
to a minimum and but also cleaning modules to be set according to the conditions.

Unprecedented sieving capacity

Equipped with three sieving webs, the R3060 guarantees unparalleled sieving capacity, which limits drop heights to an
absolute minimum. The direction of the first and second sieving webs can also be reversed. The second sieving web
comes standard equipped with 1 rotary and 2 eccentric agitators. If extra cleaning is desired, a rotary agitator can be
added to the first sieving web and an eccentric agitator can be added to the third sieving web. These are speed adjustable
and can be turned on and off independently. For the first and second sieving web a choice can be made between the
standard conveyors with pitch 36-40-44-50. The third sieving web can be equipped with pitch 35-40-44-50.

Harvesting unit

Over the years, the standard classic harvesting unit with 2

diabolos and harvesting shares has proven its reliability in
all conditions. An optional quick change system is available
whereby it is possible to switch between the various
harvesting units: diabolo harvesting unit at 75 cm, diabolo
harvesting unit at 90 cm, diabololess harvesting unit with
driven discs or onion harvesting unit. Switching between
harvesting unit 75cm
these units takes only 15 minutes.

Haulm separator

The R3060 comes standard equipped with a modern haulm

separator manufactured from wear-resistant Hardox steel
and equipped with depth control and side-shift. The feelers
under the haulm separator follow the height of the potato
baulks precisely and operate each cylinder individually. This 5
results in perfect positioning along the potato baulks and
optimal removal of the haulm, even in the curves. The depth
can be adjusted automatically from within the cabin. harvesting unit 90cm driven discs onion harvesting unit
 9 equipment levels thanks to modular construction
Countries and regions have their own distinctive features and, in many cases, little in common. The R3060 is
therefore available in 9 different models to respond to these specific conditions. With a wide range of options, Dewulf
offers customised solutions.

 Innovations that make you a better driver

APC (Automatic Pressure Control) – standard

The supporting capacity of the potato baulks can vary depending on weather conditions. APC allows the driver
to pre-set the desired pressure on the diabolos (e.g. reduce pressure in wet conditions) to perfectly match the
actual conditions.

DSC (Dewulf Synchronisation Control) - standard

If there is not enough soil on the sieving webs, potatoes can start to roll. In such cases, the tubers are not
supported sufficiently. This impairs quality immediately. This occurs, for example, when digging in or
when the speed suddenly decreases while harvesting. The relationship between driving speed and the
speed of the harvesting webs is not proportional. Dewulf therefore developed DSC,
which reduces potatoes rolling backwards to an absolute minimum. DSC enables
the driver to synchronise the speed of the sieving webs with the driving speed.

ADC (Automatic Depth Control) - optional

ADC works using a sensor on each diabolo, one controlling the cylinder of the harvesting unit
on the left and the other controlling the cylinder of the support wheel on the right. Through the
harvesting display the desired depth can be entered which the system translates automatically into a
certain angle for the diabolo. In this way, the pressure on the potato baulk is relieved and the desired depth is

8 retained.
Always has control of the conditions at any place
Hedgehog belts
As standard, the R3060 is fitted with 2 hedgehog belts. Thanks
to the large surface of the hedgehog belts and the possibility of
adjusting the speed and inclination, varying conditions
can be dealt with optimally.

The unique design of the hedgehog belts (hedgehog belt with
cleaning module) in combination with the axial rollers guarantees
an unrivalled cleaning capacity. Soil and clods are immediately
removed from the product flow and deposited on the parcel.

Axial rollers
In wet conditions, harvested potatoes tend to stick together in
clods. The R3060 transports the potato flow first over the wide
lower hedgehog belt which breaks up the large clods before they
reach the axial rollers. This increases the cleaning capacity of the
axial module. The potato flow is perfectly distributed across the
full width of the axial table. This optimal distribution allows the
potatoes to fully utilise the cleaning capacity of the axial rollers.
The varying length of the axial rollers ensures that the ring elevator is filled across the full width and this
guarantees highly potato-friendly transport. The speed of the axial rollers is adjustable and the parallelogram
construction allows changes in the incline while not affecting the incline of the hedgehog belt. The parallelogram
construction between the third sieving web, hedgehog belt and axial rollers also ensures that falling heights remain
constant, regardless of the position of the axial rollers.

Easyclean
Easyclean is the perfect module for people who work on fields of
moderate soil composition or that are cloddy and stony. Thanks to
this unique combination with a double hedgehog belt, this module
with transverse roller pairs is highly efficient in a wide range of
conditions, from extremely dry to very wet. The simple design
ensures for speedy switchover.

NEW
Thanks to Flexyclean® you are highly flexible in terms of cleaning.
With a variable bypass system you are able to distribute the
potatoes across the axial rollers from 0 to 100%. This ensures that
you always have the required cleaning of the product in accordance
with the conditions that you face. Flexyclean® is only available in
combination with axial rollers.

A work environment in which you feel at home.

With the roomy new Claas cabin, Dewulf has created a spacious working
environment focused on the driver. Comfort and ergonomics have been
given new meaning. The cabin is located precisely above the harvesting
shares to guarantee a good view of the harvesting process. The new
control via the joystick, harvesting display and traction display allow the
driver to operate the machine easily and comfortably. All controls have
been placed close together to allow easy, convenient operation.
There are pedals to operate the rear steering. In addition to the
spacious environment in general, there is also more storage space
and an optional refrigerated cool box can be provided
in the cab to accompany the driver through the long days.

In the cabin, the entire product flow can be monitored using the 6 cameras
and 2 x 10 inch colour monitors. Quad-view even allows images from 4
cameras to be displayed on one monitor. For extra comfort, Dewulf has
included a mounting bar with control buttons that allows one to switch
between the various cameras, making bending over unnecessary. The bar
also allows various peripheral devices to be attached.

Driving with the R3060 is sublime. By using Cruise Control, the ideal
harvesting speed can be set and returned to time after time to allow the
driver to fully concentrate on harvesting. Regardless of the weather
conditions, the driver always enjoys the ideal temperature, maintained by
the standard equipped automatic air conditioning.

11
Ease of working means quick working
Dewulf has done everything to make the R3060 as easy as possible to operate. Dewulf has for example designed
an ergonomic joystick, which is very comfortable in the hand and easy to operate without requiring too many hand
movements. The stick’s X and Y axes are used to adjust the speed of the machine. The joystick has 20 buttons so
that sufficient functions can be operated directly. Furthermore, it is possible to link various harvesting parameters in 5
configurable preselections. In this way, you change the complete setting of the machine with a single press of a button.
The control system consists of an upper (traction parameter) and a lower (harvesting parameter) display.
Strong chassis, strong arguments
• Excellent stability

• Unequalled ground clearance
• Heavy duty rear axle with steering radius of 20°
• Highest degree of accessibility to service components
• Gooseneck for superior maniability
• Optional axles for belt and caterpillar tracks

Pure power. Day in, day out

The latest engine technology gives a new dimension to
performance and fuel consumption. The new
Scania DC9 85A Stage IV Final (ad blue) engine
generates 350 horsepower, excellent flexibility and low
consumption. More torque, less fuel and high reliability. On the
road the engine runs at revs of only 1300 rpm and at 1600 rpm
during harvesting. With minimal emissions as a result, it offers a
positive contribution to the environment, while the efficiency just
keeps improving. In addition to this standard engine with Ad Blue,
it is possible to extend to an optional power output of 400 hp.

At Dewulf every customer is known by his or her name

As is the case with many successful businesses, Dewulf had

humble beginnings. At his parent’s farm Robert Dewulf grew
up with an intense passion for mechanics. In order to meet the
requirements of the crop producers in the area, he started
in 1946 with the construction of potato harvesters. His drive
to constantly improve a good product to an ever better one
formed the backbone to a progressive evolution
of harvesting machines that provided true value.
Dewulf has enjoyed more than 68 years of harvesting
technology in the top segment. The machines have since found
their way to more than 37 countries worldwide. People are our
main focus and the trust that we get from you forms the main
basis to the Dewulf success. We therefore regard keeping that
trust as our top priority, a task that we work hard on every day.
Since 2014 the Dewulf group has grown into a full-liner thanks to
the addition of the Miedema make of machines. Miedema is also a
leading company with a focus on innovation for potato growers. This 15
enables us together with you to achieve the best possible results.
