Brent 1198 Avalanche Grain Cart

What the 1198 Avalanche Grain Cart is used for
A tractor operator positions the cart under the combine unloading auger and receives grain on the go. The cart then carries the grain to a waiting truck or semi at the headland, reducing truck traffic in the field. A scale option can help document individual cart loads.
Why the Brent 1198 Avalanche Grain Cart stands out
The 1198 uses a dual-auger system with a low-profile tank and a pivoting unloading auger. Its four-way directional downspout helps place grain in a truck with less tractor repositioning. High-flotation singles, walking tandems, and track choices allow the undercarriage to be selected for row spacing and ground conditions.
Buying a used Brent 1198 Avalanche Grain Cart
Look for thinning or sharp flighting edges, damaged auger tubes, and leakage around the vertical-auger joint and cleanout door. Inspect the belts, gearbox, PTO shaft, clutch, shields, hydraulic hoses, and flow-gate operation. On wheeled carts, check tire age and wheel pivots, and on tracked carts inspect belt condition, bogies, idlers, and hubs.
