Description:

A small, complete, self contained nut cracking machine. The nuts are cracked in the round cages, and there is a cage for Pistachios and one for Walnuts. Could also be used for other nuts with the right cage. The nuts are belted up from the hopper into the cage where they are broken, and come out the bottom. From there the cracked nuts are belted up to the round table where air is blown to separate out the shells, which are lighter than the meat. Complete, including all shrouds.
Seller tells us it works well, and was last used several years ago. It is driven by a 2 hp electric motor made by GE, and has a number of fan belts, and 2 loader belts. Many of the fan belts show age and look like they need to be replaced. It has also been outside and needs cleaning and maintenance
Willard Nut Shelley, Model F2. D61
Overall it is just under 10’ long from end to end, and can be rolled around on the 4 castors below
