Successfully working up front for more than 30 years Initially, our cultivators were attached to the front loader. We have been supplying tined units for more than 20 years! Starting with only 2 rows. The “golden hooves” at work Intensive crumbling of clods Highly-effective depth control and reconsolidation Whichever design and diameter you require, a front unit will achieve the results you want from your soil and exceed your expectations. Damp soil only sticks to the prism rings to a certain degree. The soil is never destroyed or turned into mud under any circumstances, but is broken up in accordance...

Saving while driving Often, farmers worry unnecessarily about overloading the front axle on the tractor with a front unit. However, quite the opposite is true: the front unit ensures balanced axle load! A Guttler front press can offer a far more effective and more relaxed way of working in every aspect of field work. Use of a front press will provide a higher level of driver comfort, reduce soil damage at the seed bed, and reduce fuel consumption as the tractor's wheels only create tracks to the depth of the tyre profile (every 1 cm of additional depth = 10% more energy), leading to balanced handling...

Deep tracking caused by front weights Energy is wasted and soil damaged in this way! Wouldn’t a front weight be cheaper? Only at first glance!  The tractor will become top-heavy and will track more deeply at the front. Remember: Every additional centimetre of track depth equates to: 10% more fuel consumption (according to Prof. Volk of the FH Soest) The power harrow must move 150 tonnes (= 7 truckloads) more soil per hectare When using a front unit, a larger tractor isn’t required: the tractor will hardly sink itself at all and travels easily. The power harrow can be set considerably shallower!...

Also useful on light soils The correct front unit is extremely important… not only to assist crumbling on heavy soils, but also on light soils for re-compaction. This will ensure no smearing within the profile of the seedbed! Also in the spring on over wintered furrows: The tines on the front unit are adjusted as level as possible, so that they level soil without bringing up damp soil. The tractor tracks only minimally and the following power harrow can run equally as shallow. Many farmers say: “I don’t need a front press, I don’t have any heavy soils!” Incorrect: Güttler front units are the...

Success in adverse conditions! Save work, time and money! The damper the soils (tilling in late spring), the more important it is that it is cultivated in a single working pass. A second pass is unnecessary! The front unit plays a decisive role here. Working with a front unit protects the equipment, as it results in reduced wear on the trailed or mounted units and the tractor. The tractor itself travels on an even, firm track and does not bump from furrow to furrow, as the soil in front of the tractor has already been crumbled, levelled and re-consolidated. That way, you are protecting both the...

Also able to cope with crop residues Duplex DX 30-56 with a tined unit Using a tined unit to incorporate crop residues The 3 rows of tines with under frame clearance of 460 mm allows straw and crop residues better flow. If large amounts of straw are incorporated within the ground and immediately processed by the tined unit, it can lead to blockages. In such cases, tines are not required because the soil has been freshly worked and usually has been levelled by the cultivator. In this instance, the tines are simply lifted horizontally or the tined unit is simply removed. When the cultivated field...

No steering yoke required Duplex DX 30-45 with front-mounted tined unit Press rings with narrow edges run dead straight like the wheels of a train on the track. Steering headstocks are therefore essential. Güttler rings do not behave in a “track-like” way, and therefore do not require a steering headstock. Without a steering yoke, we benefit from the following positive points: what isn’t there cannot break or wear, plus no more yawing movements from side to side – the Güttler press gives gentle motion even at high speeds – essential for GPS steering systems. More than the perfect front unit –...

The little things that matter Our headstocks offer several hitch points …form the power that underpins the established Güttler standard The headstocks Our headstocks offer several hitch points. This is essential because the measurements of the front hydraulics differ considerably from tractor to tractor. 45 cm rings The 45 cm rings are axially loaded on the sprung steel shafts so that they remain free from play for a long time. In the event of a repair, pre-tensioning is carried out on site, and no specialist equipment is required. 56 cm rings The split rings made from malleable cast iron (ductile)...
