What the 1348 Grain Cart is used for
The 1348 is intended for high-capacity combine support, receiving grain on the go and reducing combine waiting time. Its cart load is then weighed if needed and transferred to trucks at a headland or field entrance. Operators use controlled flow and the adjustable downspout to finish filling truck compartments.
Why the Parker 1348 Grain Cart stands out
The in-line auger system uses a force-fed vertical auger and a belt-driven floor auger for high unloading capacity. A 180-degree folding auger gives reach without increasing transport width, while a self-locking arrangement helps limit grain seepage. It can be configured with large single tires, walking tandem duals, or track systems for flotation.
Buying a used Parker 1348 Grain Cart
Check auger flighting, belt sets, belt tensioners, driveline components, gearboxes, PTO guards, and the auger folding and locking system. Examine the high-capacity tank, floor, frame, hitch, axle or track pivots, tires or belts, and wheel bearings for cracks and wear. Confirm proper scale calibration and inspect all hydraulic hoses and downspout controls.
