Maxx18 Honey Extractor - 18 Frame Radial

Please note: the Maxx18 is being phased out in favor of the new Maxx21 model. There's nothing wrong with the Maxx18, but we're phasing in our new line of bottom-drive machines. Here's an opportunity to snag a great machine at an AMAZING price, and it includes the deluxe controller too!

Part of our "Maxx" family of flagship extractors, the Maxx18 stands head-and-shoulders above the competition. Here are a few things that set it apart:

• Proven HillCo PowerMax drive system: an industrial grade motor, gearbox, and controller. This combination is smooth, quiet and durable. A great combination of simplicity and refinement, this drive system performs fabulously!
• New upgraded Program controller! The Program controller runs a 14 minute, pre-programmed cycle that starts out slow, and gradually ramps up to full speed automatically, then shuts off when it's done! It also allows manual control operation, and can be seamlessly switched back and forth from automatic to manual mode with the flip of a toggle switch. You'll love this new controller option!
• 21 gauge, type 304 food-grade stainless steel tank
• Ez-Drain honey gate design: the honey drain valve is located slightly below the tank floor, giving you a complete, seamless honey drain.
• Maxx extractor tank features a HillCo-exclusive tank bottom that slopes towards the front, ensuring that all your honey flows smoothly towards the gate. No tipping the tank, no hassle, it just works!
• Industry leading 4/10 warranty: motor, gearbox, controller, and wiring are guaranteed for 4 years. The rest of the machine (tank, legs, lower bearing, reel, etc), are guaranteed for 10 years! We have engineered a quality product and we will stand behind it!
• Designed and assembled in USA by HillCo!
