Abstract
A structural chassis for an agricultural machine, such as sugarcane and sweet sorghum harvesters, including a removable reservoir to store hydraulic fluid and, therefore, to improve maintenance and increase the useful life and productivity of the agricultural machine. The structural chassis includes a front portion and a rear portion that supports a primary extractor assembly and a hitch for mounting an elevator assembly. The rear portion is configured to form a processing path through side walls provided with openings for mounting lower and upper feed rollers and chopper rollers. The removable reservoir is installed in a housing formed by the side walls. The removable reservoir includes an opening between the primary extractor assembly and the hitch.
