Great Plains 8552DV

CONSTANT-LEVEL HITCH
Keeps implement level regardless of undulations in terrain.

MAX-MIX™ SHANK PATTERN
With a true four-bar design, shanks on the first and second bars are split by the third and fourth bars. On an effective 7" spacing, no shank is closer than 28" on any bar. The Max-Mix shank design evenly spreads residue and uniformly incorporates fertilizer or manure for even distribution. True, one-pass tillage eliminates the cost of owning several tillage tools.

HYDRAULICALLY-ADJUSTABLE COULTERS
This feature allows the depth of the coulters/discs to be changed independently of the shanks. It also enables the residue coverage levels to be adjusted on-the-go to meet government requirements on HEL ground.

CHOOSE YOUR SHANK & SWEEPS
Choose between heavy-duty K-flex shanks (shown) with 185 lbs. of point trip force, or spring-loaded Magnum shanks with 205 lbs. of point trip force. Sweep choices are either 9" regular or 9" hard-faced.

CHOOSE YOUR DISC BLADES
Pick exclusive Turbo coulters (left), rippled coulters (middle) to size residue and run at faster ground speeds, or opt for 20" shallow-concavity discs (right) to feather worked soil into ruts and wheel tracks.

REBOUND VALVE AND SINGLE-POINT DEPTH CONTROL
The highly efficient hydraulic rebound valve provides precise operating depth and keeps the machine running level, which extends the life of the entire hydraulic system. The pressure-reducing valve limits hydraulic cylinder pressure, and the counter-balance valve prevents air from passing through seals and into the system. This valve shines in fields where the machine needs to be raised and lowered numerous times.

OPTIONAL KNOCK-ON SWEEPS
Quick-change system for installation and removal of sweeps. Once installed, the sweeps can be changed without the use of power tools.

OPTIONAL 3-BAR COIL TINE & REEL
Provides a medium level of soil finishing, effectively distributing surface residue.

OPTIONAL 3-ROW SPIKE & REEL
Residue distribution and leveling, plus the firming aspects of a finishing reel.

OPTIONAL 4-BAR COIL TINE
Additional coil tines increase soil finishing and residue distribution.

OPTIONAL 5-BAR HIGH-RESIDUE SPIKE
Five rows of 14" staggered teeth break up clods and level high-residue field conditions.

OPTIONAL 7-BAR SPIKE
Featuring 7 rows of staggered ¾" x 14" spikes; most aggressive.
