Rotary Chisel Also Fitted With Stationary Shanks

Rotary Chisel Also Fitted With Stationary Shanks TILLAGE EUIPMENT Chisel Plows (9) 22-1-27 Rotary chisel plows are not new but this new model built by Italian manufacturer Falc combines stationary deep-ripping shanks with rotating shanks. "We believe this is the best primary till-age tool in the world," says company president Piero Zama. "It's faster, requires less power, turns over less sod, and digs through deep layers of compact soil so water and roots can penetrate." In addition, the forward propulsion provided by the rotating shanks reduces tire wear by preventing tire slippage, and reduces wear and tear to the towing components on the tractor. Standard width is 9 ft. wide. Works at speeds up to 4 mph. Works in everything from hard, dry stony soils to wet ground and leaves the ground smooth, says Zama. Digs down to 18 in. deep. The pto gear-box driving the rotating shanks shifts between three speeds to adapt to ground conditions.
