What happens here

Once the raw material is positioned over the material screener, slowly tilt the Kubota skid steer's bucket to allow the material to fall onto the screener's grate. The screener operates purely on gravity; the finer soil and smaller aggregates will fall through the grates and accumulate below, while larger debris such as grass, rocks, or other unwanted organic matter will remain on top of the grates. Continue to gently agitate the material on the screener using the bucket if necessary to help facilitate the separation process. Observe the clean, fine material accumulating beneath the screener, demonstrating the effectiveness of this gravity-fed method for creating 'black dirt' or other refined materials.

Goal: Separate finer material from larger debris using gravity

Tools and materials

  • Kubota Skid Steer with Bucket Kubota — Loading and agitating material on the screener
  • Material Screener Bear Iron Works — The primary apparatus for separating materials
  • Raw Bulk Material N/A — The material to be screened (e.g., dirt, grass, gravel, sand)
  • Screened Material N/A — The desired output (e.g., black dirt, fine sand, usable gravel)

What they say

Hide

other aggregate material. No power, no hydraulics, no problem. This works just off the track. It moves easily across the site and can be towed on a trailer or put in the back
