POTATO TECHNOLOGY BEET TECHNOLOGY VEGETABLE TECHNOLOGY Machinery for active tillage Full width rotary hillers and standard rotary hillers to cultivate medium and heavy soils

D rive shaft with cam shut-down coupling provides a low-wear overload protection, even with multiple triggering by stones or trash Special features at a glance: S maller rotor diameter for pre-shaping ridges during use at for less power requirement compared tractor front to avoid compaction of the to traditonal rotary hillers loose soil by the following tractor wheels

Front Attachment Heavy-duty gearbox ideal with rear mounted potato planter to save working time and to reduce number of crossings as well as shorter headlands Rear Attachement f or conventional soil cultivation Combined Mounting integrated in pulled potato planter to save working time and to reduce number of crossings Tines - for higher stability equipped with addi tional wear protection (standard version) - for even higher stability with hard metal plates for working on very rough, not stony and heavy soils Carriage Roller 480 mm diameter for superior stability and optimal pre-compaction...

Full-width tiller GR 300 The GR 300 front attachment (1), is ideally suited to be combined with a trailed 4-row potato planter. Convenient especially for short headlands and smaller acreage, a compact tractor implement combination is available for these requirements. The use of the GR 300 combined with a trailed potato planter (2) enables the handling of multitask processes in one crossing: Soil cultivation, fertilizing, crop protection, planting and ridge shaping (5-in-1). Due to a higher bunker capacity this combination is especially suited for bigger fields. Fat tires offer...

TECHNICAL DATA Variable use GR 300 rear-mounted The GR 300 may be also conventionally used as a rear-mounted rotary tiller for crushing clods and trash as well as for the inversion of grassland. Fuel economy Loosening tines Available as an option, loosening tines behind the tractor track can be included in order to reduce the power demand of the rotary tiller. Smooth-running and low precompaction Carriage roller 480 mm The large diameter carriage roller (480 mm) ensures high stability, low pre-compaction and a smooth low resistance rolling over the soil.

Rotary hillers GF Special features at a glance: Rotary hiller Suitable for accurate ridge hilling in 2-phase potato cultivation (planting and ridging separately) for early potato planting in wet and cold soil conditions F ull width tiller (option) can be used as a solo-machine or in combination with a planter, combining up to five working steps (5-in-1-procedure) this leads to a higher working efficiency and less passages on the field Dyker (Option) - or seeders, seeding fine-seed f to avoid water erosion and for better (i.e. carrot seed) - o save working time and to achieve t reduction of...

Heavy-duty gearbox for tractor power up to 500 PS (depending on the tiller type) Loosening tines (Option) - ifferent types of tines for sticky, weard - for an increased ground loosening below prone (abrasive) and stony soil conditions - igh number of tines and high rotor speed h for even more intensity of soil tillage the still to be formed ridges, when machine is used for full width tillage - inter-row loosening reduces the required tractor power, its fuel consumption and improves root establishment

Cultivating and planting in a single pass Rotary tiller GF 200 – front mounted The front mounted rotary tiller GF 200 is used to prepare soils with a high amount of clods. Its main use is in combination with a 2-row potato planter. In this way it is possible to realise an economic planting and cultivation in a single pass. Rear attachment – flexible use and operation Rotary Hiller GF 200 The rear-mounted GF 200 is a 2-row rotary tiller with a working width of 1.50 m or 1.80 m, which is normally used as a rotary hiller. Optionally, it can be equipped with clamps and tines for full width...

TECHNICAL DATA Suitable tines for every type of soil Tines There are tines available for all fields of application and requirements – make your choice. Tines (1) with surface-treatment (hardened) belong to the standard equipment of all Grimme rotary tillers. They have additional wear protection for extended utilisation periods. Hard metal tines (2) have a highly wear-resistant coating, so-called widia plates, that are vacuum-soldered. They are not suitable for stony conditions. There are narrow tines (3) available, if amount of tines needs to be increased. The higher amount of tines is...

Great variety of equipment Rotary Hiller GF 400 The 4-row rotary hiller GF 400 is designed and developed for various purposes. It can be used as a solomachine for conventional rotary hilling (1) as well as for full width tilling (2) and the third alternative is the use in combination with a 4-row potato planter (3). In the case, that the machine combination of tiller and planter shall be used as a “5-in-1 combination”, the tiller is equipped with a heavy-duty three-point linkage, incl. steel grip to attach the planter behind the tiller. Main benefits of this combination are: - Use of the...

TECHNICAL DATA Up to 500 HP tractor power Drive Drive line and rotor shaft are available in different versions for a tractor power of up to 500 HP (365 kW). Beside the “standard” rotor shaft, which is suitable for both full width tilling and rotary hilling, a second rotor shaft is optionally available with welded tine brackets over the whole width, for very hard soil conditions. High stability on slopes and perfect hilling Stabiliser discs Stabiliser discs, which are mounted at the rear side of the rotary tiller ensure an exactly centered guidance, even on slopes. This reduces the risk of...

Operation under any conditions Rotary Hiller GF 600 The GF 600 is a 6-row rotary hiller for potato ridges. Optionally it can be used as a full width tiller for conventional soil cultivation or as a machine for pre-hilling of potato ridges. Pre-hilled ridges contribute to warm up the soil faster. An optimised soil structure for planting and growing potatoes is prepared. Ridge shaping can be realised in several sizes. Due to the fact, that the machine is hydraulically foldable for road transport (option), an easy and fast transfer from field to field is possible. Low empty weight Fixed frame...
