The power harrow range featuring the folding LION 103 C series with working widths of 4.0 and 5 m is designed for tractors up to 320 PS.
On the medium weight LION C series, the focus is on the compactness of the machine and optimised weight distribution. These folding power harrows are designed to be operator friendly by providing a perfect overview of the entire machine to simplify monitoring and control.
The series includes the following models:
LION 403 C
LION 503 C
The top priority in seedbed preparation is the creation of optimum germination and growth conditions to ensure rapid and uniform plant emergence. On the medium weight LION C series, PÖTTINGER achieves this by using 4 rotors per metre of working width and tines that are 330 mm long and 15 mm thick, or as an option 18 x 330 mm.
A perfect seedbed is the basis for an optimum harvest. These folding power harrows produce a fine tilth and create a level seedbed while consolidating the soil perfectly.
The LION C medium weight series power harrows in combination with the AEROSEM FDD front hopper seed drill offers the highest level of versatility.
The coupling system for attaching the coulter rail to the power harrow features a simple catch hook solution with lock pin that allows the system to be fitted in a few minutes. This extends the range of applications considerably, since attachment and removal is easier and quicker than on comparable machines.
All adjustments such as working depth of the tines and the levelling board are easy to operate from the side of the machine. This means the machine can be adapted to work in different soil conditions within a few minutes.
The best working results thanks to proven LION technology, combined with the integrated folding system
High durability and smooth running thanks to a no-compromise drive train and central gearbox
The highest reliability thanks to the proven LION gear beam design with robust tapered roller bearings
The highest level of operating convenience thanks to the integrated folding cylinders and intuitive adjustment possibilities
The PTO input speed from the tractor goes out to the two external gearboxes without changing the transmission ratio. This ensures that the power transmitted to the external gearboxes arrives without loss of torque. Reliability and efficiency are increased as a result.
Equipped with overload protection of up to 180 kg and tungsten carbide points, the track eradicator tines deliver the best working results.
Up to three track eradicators per tractor track are available as an option. These can be shifted to the side easily on the box section. The working depth is easily adjusted using lock pins.
Reduction to a rotor speed of 342 U/min does not take place until the external gearbox.
Protected by a cam-type clutch, the medium weight LION C series delivers impressive reliability and is approved for all PTO shaft speeds.
For road transport, the optional bout markers have a central hinge and are folded down through 90 degrees.
An integrated hydraulic collision safety device and additional shear bolts protect the system. The aggressiveness is easily adjusted by altering the position of the disc.
The power harrows deliver an impressive performance both solo and when combined with a seed drill. In combination with the AEROSEM FDD, the short design of the machine becomes even more important. Thanks to the quick attachment and removal of the coulter rail, the LION is ready for action on any job in no time at all.
The machine can be parked when folded up to save space.
In combination with a seed drill it is recommended the machine is parked in the unfolded position to avoid having to detach the DUAL DISC coulter arms. This is possible without additional parking stands.
When equipped with all the options, 3 double-acting remote valves are required.
When used in combination with an AEROSEM FDD seed drill, an optional preselect system with integrated hydraulic block is available. All functions can then be controlled using a preselect system and only one spool valve is required on the tractor. In this case an optional speed monitoring system is available.
With a width of just 2,55 m when folded for transport, enhanced safety is also provided on the road. When transporting the machine, the rear rollers can be secured in position using transport interlock pins.
