You need to be able to react quickly and easily to different operating conditions. PÖTTINGER power harrows feature some well thought-out details that make setting up your machine much easier.
Convenient working depth setting
The working depth of the rigid LION power harrows can be flexibly adjusted by simply repositioning the bolts in the 9-hole matrix.
On the folding models it is possible to set the working depth of each frame section from the side without the need for tools.
Hydraulic depth adjustment is available as an option.
The rear levelling board is standard and is set automatically with the depth of the rear roller. No readjustment is necessary when changing the depth. The rear levelling board can be quickly removed and positioned in front of the rotors.
Over the full working width the levelling board is always at a consistent distance from the tines
All models are preset using an easily accessible 18-hole matrix
Adjusted using ratchet wrench supplied
Optional:
Additional front levelling board on all models
For your convenience, the side boards do not have to be especially folded upwards on new models to transport the machine to the next field. The boards are located within the permitted transport width and make full use of the maximum working width. This means it is no longer necessary to modify machines working widths of 3.0, 3.5 and 4 m for road transport (permissible transport width varies from country to country). This saves time and lets you focus on the important things.
Spring mounted side boards are provided as standard to ensure perfect merging between passes even in extreme conditions, such as on heavy and stony soils. Compared to the previous generation, the spring mounting force has been increased by approx. 20% to ensure a continuously clean and tidy working pattern.
A sturdy tube section is mounted on the gear trough to protect against stones and against reaching into the work area. This also enables track eradicators to be retrofitted easily.
The PTO shaft can be placed on a convenient fold-away support. Additional contamination is avoided and maintenance work is made easier. Thanks to the correct position of the PTO shaft at the height of the PTO shaft stub, the coupling process is more convenient.
Constantly changing soil conditions are demanding on tillage tools. Practical experience shows that only what can be done easily and quickly is then really done. In order to ensure consistent working results, the tines need to be replaced after a certain period of time, depending on the site specific conditions and the hectares covered.
To make it easier to replace the tines, the QUICK FIX quick-change system with folding lynch pins is available in addition to the standard bolt fastening. The tines can be changed or swapped around easily and conveniently in just a few steps.
To achieve the maximum service life, you can install DURASTAR and DURASTAR PLUS equipment in addition to the standard tines. These are even more wear-resistant and are characterised by their extra hard coating. Your advantages with a choice of tines:
Up to 60 % longer service life thanks to special tungsten carbide coating
18 mm-thick reversible tines
Excellent retention of shape
Consistently high quality of work because the tines retain their length much longer
DURASTAR tines available as an optional machine configuration
DURASTAR PLUS tines can only be ordered as spare parts
The tine carrier is completely integrated into the rotor beam to ensure reliability.
No soil can flow above the rotors because of the small gap between the rotor and the rotor beam
Harvest residues cannot wrap around the tine carriers
No jamming of stones possible and no optional stone guard necessary
