Multifunctional rotary spader
The 46 series is developed for the heaviest clay soils as well as lighter/sandier soils when equipped with different spade arms. The latest changes means spading becomes even more attractive since the machine can be equipped with a PTO driven implement.
Concept of the machine
New award-winning design with striking yellow stripes on the blue and black machines give them a unique appearance. Heart of the 46 is the spadeshaft which will do the primary tillage. It’s driven by the tractors PTO shaft @1000 rpm and is build for tractors between 125 and 250 engine hp. The spadeshaft is driven on one side with a gearbox. No chains on this machine! That’s not all! There are various ways to mount different implements. For example a packer roller, rotovator, power harrow or bed shaper. Primary and secondary tillage in one pass! In combination with a drill or a planter cost reductions are even greater. Because of the numerous possibilities this machine is THE alternative to conventional tillage.
Working depth may vary between 15 and 30 cm (6-13”) The 46 comes in 3 and 3.5 m ( 10’and 11.5’’) working width. Maximum working speed is 5 km/u (3.1 m/h)
The spaders are mounted in the 3-point hitch of the tractor. Lowering the implement will get it to work the soil. When equipped with the packer roller the weight of the machine can be carried partly with it. Skids are mounted in front of the machine to control depth. The packer will also create a light consolidation maintaining the open structure of the soil.
