3.6m Folding

THE PROCESS

In heavier soil types or lay ground, the bed tilling process can be appropriate. The ScanStone bed tiller is an efficient and effective machine, primarily due to having quick change blades. Depending on the rotor speed, the bed tiller can do a very fine job or a rougher job depending on how much fuel and energy the farmer wishes to use. The amount of bed tilling should be proportional to the forward speed of the destoner.

CONFIGURATION

The ScanStone 3.6m folding bed tiller requires a tractor of no less than 200hp to drive it. The machine can be used for general rotavating or, for the potato application, it can be supplied with a variation of plough configurations; 2 ploughs, 3 ploughs or 4 ploughs (Shown on bed maker section). The folding model folds up to an appropriate transport width of under 3m, and they feature a safety transport lock.

Quick Change Blade System

The Quick Change Blade System works with a double flange rotor, locating bolts, and a clip and pin which holds the blade securely. This is a cost-effective system, because the holding bolts and the clip and pin do not need replaced every time a blade is changed, unlike a bolted blade where the operator has to buy 2 bolts and 2 nuts every blade change. It is extremely rare that blades are lost with this system because the hard pin and clip never come off. The flanges are protected by hardened steel wear plates which are reversible and replaceable.

L-Shaped Blades

L-blades maintain a constant depth for the life of the blade, and do not lose depth as the blade wears.



C-Shaped Blades

C-blades require less horsepower and are good for conditions where the soil is lighter and not so heavy. The panning effect is vastly reduced by using C-blades.

Spike Rotor

The spike rotor is used when there is no grass or lay conditions and where the soil is easily broken down. Spikes completely eliminate any panning.



Centre Share Blade

A replaceable part that prevents the machine from opening as it glides through the soil.

Soil Intake Discs

Intake discs are used primarily when working on the ploughed surface. They allow the bed tiller to be dropped into the required working depth of the user. They also protect the side casing of the machine in some conditions.



Depth Wheel Kit

Depth wheels maintain the depth of the bed tiller during work and minimise the floatation. These are used when there are no ploughs on the back.

Spring Loaded Adjustable Tailgate

The rear tailgate on the bed tiller can be adjusted to hold soil into the machine or let it flow through more easily. This is dependent on ground conditions and how thorough a bed tilling job is to be done.



Rear Linkage With Depth & Pitch Adjustment

Each bed tiller comes with a standard hitch system on the rear to allow various styles of ploughs to be fitted. The hitch system has two top links to allow depth and pitch adjustment.
