SCREENER FEATURES
C SPRING SUSPENSION SYSTEM

The C Spring Suspension System, just like in our other models, is crucial for enabling the action and reaction of the screen deck during the screening process. In the SLG 48 MINI SCREENER, this system is especially important because it is a static screener, meaning it does not have a vibratory pack. The C Spring Suspension System ensures that the material moves smoothly across the screen deck, maintaining efficiency and effectiveness in the screening process.
REMOVABLE WHEELS SYSTEM

Unlike our larger models that come with bucket transport lugs, the SLG 48 MINI SCREENER is designed with a lightweight and compact build, allowing for easy mobility. To accommodate this, we've equipped the machine with removable wheels. Depending on the state of the machine, such as during the screening process, these wheels can be quickly removed and stored to prevent any damage when using your equipment. This user-friendly system allows you to remove or attach the wheels in less than 5 minutes, ensuring seamless transitions between transport and operation.
QUICK DISCONNECT HITCH SYSTEM

The Quick Disconnect Hitch System allows for easy mobility of our SLG 48 MINI SCREENER. You can quickly detach the hitch and store it during the screening process, or reattach it when you need to move the machine. This system is designed for simplicity and efficiency, enabling the user to complete the process in less than 5 minutes, ensuring smooth transitions between screening and transport.
SCREEN DECK RUBBER SIDE SKIRTS

The SLG 48 MINI SCREENER features robust rubber skirts along each side of the screen deck, designed to serve as a protective barrier. These skirts effectively catch any loose material that may escape from the bucket, preventing debris from spilling over and maintaining a cleaner, more organized work environment.

ABOUT MESH
TALK ABOUT MESH
square
We offer a wide range of mesh that are quick and easily changed.The ability to install large and small high quality mesh makes DeSite SLG Screeners a time saver and money maker. We offer both square and elongated mesh pattern in a double lock crimp weave. Our double lock weave puts two crimps in each wire as they intersect, This creates a strong weave and a stronger, more stable mesh.By directing material flow to the top of the screen deck, this system ensures maximum production and efficiency. The SLG 108's deflector is designed with flexibility in mind, allowing it to open and close as needed to manage oversized materials effectively. Additionally, the 108's feed deflector fits into our quick disconnect lugs, making it easy to remove when necessary.

Elongated
Our elongated pattern mesh is what we call a triple chute weave where a group of three wires intersect the main with wires. A space of four inches has full unobstructed opening before the next three wires intersect the mesh again. Our elongated pattern meshes are designed to handle higher moisture material when screening is more challenging. Hourly production are always considerably higher when elongated pattern mesh in in use.

SCREEN MESH RECOMENDATION CHART
Topsoil and Triple Mix
Topsoil is in demand and profitable. Depending upon the customer and their needs some want it very fine while other are more price conscious and want commercial grade topsoil.

Wood Mulch
Wood mulch is a light product that travels over the screen deck differently that a soil or aggregate product. It is recommended to run a bit bigger mesh. Often people will screen out the fines and mix it into the topsoil for slow release decomposition. It is a great way to recycle the wood fines.
