Great Plains TC5109
Features
CHOOSE PARABOLIC OR CHISEL SHANKS
Order the Turbo-Chisel the way you want it with two different shank combinations: standard chisel (left) or heavy-duty parabolic toggle-trip shanks (right). Parabolic toggle-trip shanks perform up to 12-inches deep, while the maximum depth of the chisel shanks is 9 inches. When equipped with heavy-duty parabolic toggle-trip shanks, this unit works in the mid-ranges of 8" to 12", requiring less horsepower than competitive disk rippers that run in the 13" to 15" range – while horizontally fracturing soil much better than a disk chisel. Toggle-trip shanks either run at the set depth or trip – there is no in-between. Toggle-trip shanks have 2,450 lbs. of trip force while chisel shanks have 900 lbs. of trip force.
EXCLUSIVE 22" TURBO BLADES
On 7½" spacing, the 22" Turbo blades enter the soil vertically and leave horizontally, causing a mulching action of both soil and residue while maximizing lateral fracture. Competitive concave-disc tools simply cut off and roll long stringy stalks.
ADJUSTABLE COULTER DEPTH
Independently control coulter depth from the cab. This allows the operator to make adjustments to the depth based on field conditions.
SINGLE-POINT DEPTH STOP
Adjust the depth across the entire width of the machine in one convenient place.
VIRTUALLY MAINTENANCE FREE BEARINGS
New 7-lip TillXtreme™ seals on each side of the gang bearings lock in grease and prevent contamination. Additionally, the walking beam pivots utilize coated bushings, eliminating the need for tapered bearings and grease in pivot points. Drop axles pivot on anti-rotational pins, requiring no maintenance.
WALKING TANDEM AXLES
Maintain consistent mainframe height for accurate, consistent tillage depth control.
OPTIONAL CHOPPER WHEEL REAR ATTACHMENT
Patented angled chopper wheels pull dirt back into shank voids, leveling soil while maintaining the vertically-tilled profile left by the shanks.
OPTIONAL REAR HITCH
Variety of configurations tow cover crop, nutrient application, and other light-duty attachments.
OPTIONAL BUSTER BAR REAR ATTACHMENT
Levels and smooths the soil.
OPTIONAL COVERING WING WITH WEAR PLATE
Buries more residue and creates a darker soil surface.
