The incorporation of large volumes of plant residues such as flattened crops or maize straw can easy be achieved thanks to the large clearance.
Because the tine configuration is longer, the soil mixture spends a longer time in the worked area. This has a positive effect on levelling and tilth quality.
The result is a wide range of capabilities from stubble cultivation to deep tillage and seedbed preparation.
The tillage tools are arranged symmetrically along the pull line. This ensures that the whole surface of the soil is moved, even during shallow cultivation.
Perfect ground tracking is a prerequisite for consistent results across the whole working width, because every square metre of soil is valuable. In addition to the newly developed jockey wheels, there are technical features to ensure the best working results.
For fast and precise working depth adjustment, PÖTTINGER has equipped the TERRIA trailed stubble cultivator with a high quality hydraulic system as standard. This supplies the hydraulic cylinders on the jockey wheels and rear roller with the same ratio of oil. As a result the machine is always exactly parallel to the ground. The settings can also be changed while driving. A large, easy-to-read scale at the front end of the frame provides a quick check.
The TERRIA is available in 4 and 5 metre widths with single tyre jockey wheels and as a 6 metre version with double tyre jockey wheels. Together with the hydraulically adjustable rear rollers, they hold the machine at the selected working depth. Thanks to their robust mountings and a tyre size of 11.5/80-15.3, they reliably guide the tines during operation. This ensures that a uniform result across to the outermost tillage tools is always guaranteed.
The drawbar is equipped with a hydraulic cylinder that can be set to either floating or - with the help of swing clips - rigid. Furthermore, it supports the machine in ensuring optimum soil penetration and lifting at headlands.
Floating mode: The stubble cultivator follows the contours of the field in the direction of travel. This improves ground tracking to provide uniform quality of work.
Rigid mode: The weight of the stubble cultivator is transferred to the rear axle of the tractor. This improves traction and increases the efficiency of the tractor.
