Abstract

Improved apparatus useful in conjunction with a forage wagon to allow forage material to be removed from the wagon by dispensing it laterally toward the side of the wagon or, alternatively, to dispense the material directly out the front of the wagon to the area beneath the wagon such as in the filling of a trench silo. The improved apparatus includes a lateral feed conveyer affixed to the front end of the forage box by a removable attachment apparatus. Bottom and top collecting pans located beneath the lateral feed conveyer form a removable delivery surface and are constructed of discrete sections which are mounted on rail members for selective removal and replacement.
