Setting up the machine plays a decisive role in achieving perfect crop care results. PÖTTINGER guarantees simple, time-saving adjustment of the individual elements to keep your operation profitable.
With the FLEXCARE row crop cultivator, there is no need for time-consuming measurement and alignment of the weeding tools. A preset hole matrix and indicator scales on each component make it easy to set up all the tools identically.
Configuring the weeding tools and setting up the machine for different crops is completely flexible:
Simply adjust and change the row width using a hole matrix in 25 mm steps, secure in place using a spring-loaded press stud and eccentric clamp
Set the working width of each hoe element using a hole matrix with 15 mm steps and secure using spring-loaded press studs.
Depth adjustment is infinitely variable using a mechanical spindle with scale
Each tool leg is height adjustable using a clamped connection. Notches with 15 mm steps provide an indication.
The finger hoes can be conveniently pivoted in/out as well as adjusted in position and angle using eccentric clamps
The parallelogram mounting is equipped with sealed plain bearings for minimum maintenance. These are easy to replace in order to retain row tracking accuracy at high operating speeds.
All rotating components are mounted on maintenance-free sealed bearings. The FLEXCARE therefore has no greasing points.
