Weeding tools

×

The tools that follow behind the hoe element are mounted on a rear parallel linkage. This ensures optimum ground tracking. In addition, the parallel linkage allows the finger hoes and the tine hoe to be lifted into the parking position when not in use, eliminating tedious dismantling work.


Finger hoe

The fingers reach into the plant row from both sides to uproot and bury weeds at the cotyledon or filament stage.

The aggressiveness can be gradually increased by adjusting the position and angle as the resilience of the crop increases.


  • For intra-row weeding

  • Medium hardness handles all crops

  • 310 mm for row spacing starting from 37.5 cm

  • 370 mm for row spacing starting from 55 cm


Tine hoe

The sifting action of the individually removable, oscillating spring tines deposits organic matter on the surface, where it reliably wilts.

  • Can be used for inter-row and intra-row work

  • For row spacing between 25 cm - 80 cm

  • 7 mm thick, removable spring tines

  • Adjustable tines can be set to aggressive or sweeping


Plant protection disc

When used with duck foot shares, large diameter plant protection discs protect young crops from being covered with soil.

  • Can be locked in upper position

  • Easy to remove

  • Use for 45 cm - 80 cm row spacing


Hoe element extension 55 cm - 80 cm

This optional extension increases the number of shares to 5, giving the hoe element a total working width of 80 cm.

  • Unit including spring hoe

  • With 180 mm duck foot share as standard

  • Stainless steel adjustment rail


Frame extension 40 cm

With the 40 cm wide frame extension, the FLEXCARE can be adapted even more variably to changing site conditions. It can be used to extend the working width of the row crop cultivator in situations where the hoe elements need to be positioned asymmetrically or an uneven number of rows needs to be processed.
