Specs in Plain Language

This Scarab 20 is powered by a 500 HP Caterpillar diesel engine, giving it the horsepower needed to move and turn large compost windrows throughout the workday.

Its 20-foot-wide by 10-foot-tall operating capacity allows operators to process very large windrows in fewer passes than smaller compost turners. Scarab is well known in the composting industry for self-propelled windrow turners designed to improve aeration, moisture distribution, and material mixing, helping compost break down more evenly.
