“The easy-pulling Classic!”
The Cayros M 3-950 was also extensively tested by “Landwirt Österreich” magazine. In addition to the easy adjustment, there were positive reports about the excellent plough profile achieved in practice. The Cayros M 3-950 offered a convincing solution, even in hilly terrain and despite the large amounts of harvest residues. The ease with which the plough could be pulled was another highlight.

The Cayros XM is an all-rounder for tractors up to 103 kW/140 hp, due to its correspondingly dimensioned turnover mechanism and beam. With beam heights of up to 82 cm and a body to body clearance of up to 105 cm, even large amounts of harvest residues can be easily incorporated.

The features at a glance:

• 3 or 4 furrow
• For tractors up to 140 HP/103 kW
• 90 mm diameter turnover shaft and adjustable taper roller bearings
• Strong beam dimensions 150 x 100 x 8 mm
• Shear bolt stone safety release or non-stop stone safety release
• 3 body to body clearances to choose from (model-dependent)

“The decision to buy the Cayros XM was the right one!”

“We were impressed by the demonstration held on a neighbouring farm and decided to buy a 4 furrow Cayros XM 1050. The results were impressive, especially the high clearance obtained by the support wheel, which is mounted at a distance to the last plough body. The decision to buy the Cayros XM was definitely the right decision!” says Damian Chyliński, operations manager in south-eastern Poland.

A particularly cleverly designed turnover mechanism with easy adjustment and an excellent range of options makes the Cayros XMS a versatile, universal plough for tractors up to 180 HP/132 kW.

The features at a glance:

• 3, 4 or 5 furrow (depending on model)
• For tractors up to 180 HP/132 kW
• 100 mm diameter turnover shaft and adjustable taper roller bearings
• Strong beam dimensions 150 x 100 x 8 mm (12 mm wall thickness on 5 furrows)
• Shear bolt stone safety release or non-stop stone safety release
• 3 body to body clearances to choose from (model-dependent)

“This plough masters variations in soil type so very well”

Since the 2017 season, Welpinghus Farms in Borholzhausen (Germany) has been making use of a Cayros XMS V. Equipped with the WL 430 plough bodies, this plough has a particularly good working profile. “The plough pulls easily into the soil under any conditions!” says operations manager Henrik Welpinghus. He is particularly pleased that, despite its excellent furrow clearance, the plough is very easy to pull.

With up to 6 furrows, the Cayros XS is highly efficient, with an extremely functional and robust layout. Suitable for tractors up to 191 kW/260 hp, the Cayros XS is the right choice for large farms or agricultural contractors who are looking for a cost-effective and efficient ploughing operation.

The features at a glance:

• 4, 5 or 6 furrow (depending on model)
• For tractors up to 260 HP/191 kW
• 120 mm diameter turnover shaft and adjustable taper roller bearings
• Strong beam dimensions 150 x 150 x 8.8 mm (12 mm wall thickness from 5 furrow)
• Shear bolt stone safety release or non-stop stone safety release
• 3 body to body clearances to choose from (model-dependent)

“Long-term tests demonstrated its ease of operation and good plough profile.” 

“agrarheute” magazine ran comprehensive long-term tests on the 5 furrow Cayros XS 4+1 VS plough across 100 ha of land. In addition to easy adjustment using the settings centre, the magazine particularly praised the clean work the plough left behind. In practice, the reversible point resulted in a good pull-in, while the hydraulic non-stop stone safety release functioned reliably and was easy to adjust.

The extremely robust design of the turnover mechanism, beam and legs make the Cayros XS a high-performance choice for large-scale operations, contractors or any heavy-duty application. Body to body clearances up to 115 cm and beam heights up to 90 cm also make the Cayros XS an unbeatable option for large amounts of harvest residues.

The features at a glance:

• 4, 5 or 6 furrow (depending on model)
• For tractors up to 380 HP/279 kW
• 120 mm diameter turnover shaft and adjustable taper roller bearings
• Strong beam dimensions 200 x 150 x 10 mm
• Shear bolt stone safety release or non-stop stone safety release
• 3 body to body clearances to choose from (model-dependent)

• Due to the comprehensive range of support wheels, depth control on the Cayros is a very individual choice. The various attachment point options and numerous wheels mean that the support wheel can be optimally adapted to the practical requirements. Choose the optimum support wheel, from a simple metal wheel to a combi wheel.

The basis for perfect plough adjustment is an adjustment system that is logical and easy to understand. The correct plough adjustment quite simply means that operating costs will be reduced, as perfect adjustment has a very positive effect on wear and tear as well as fuel consumption. The tried and tested linkage design of the Cayros ploughs is particularly well-suited for this purpose.

Quick and easy!
Adjust the working depth of the plough via the support wheel and lower links of the tractor.

Fine-tuning of the plough can be divided into the following steps:

• Adjust the tilt using the adjustment spindles on the headstock.
• Set the draft point. The top link is aligned with the driving direction.
• Set the furrow width of the first body, using the sliding headstock.

The furrow width of the first body can be adjusted as an option from inside the tractor cab using a double-acting hydraulic cylinder. This provides a high level of comfort, especially in hilly terrain, for strongly varying soils or where frequent tractor changes are required.

To increase ground clearance when the plough is turning and make the turning smoother, all ploughs can be equipped with an inswing mechanism. This automatically swings the plough beam towards the centre of the tractor before the turnover starts and then back to its original working position once the plough has turned over. This shift in the centre of gravity also means that there is less strain on the tractor's rear lift linkage and reduces the risk of tipping while working on hilly terrain.

The benefits:

• Higher ground clearance when turning the plough
• Smooth turning
• Reduction in the load on the tractor linkage
• Reduced risk of tipping

All headstocks on Cayros ploughs feature a turnover system that uses a double-acting cylinder with automatic changeover. This ensures that the turnover of the plough is smooth and jerk-free.

All headstocks have slotted top link holes, so that the plough/tractor combination can contour follow in uneven ground.

The one-piece lower link cross shaft is particularly elastic and provides the optimum absorption of shock loads generated during ploughing and especially during transport. Furthermore, the lower link cross shaft can be coupled quickly and without using any tools, which facilitates attachment to the tractor.
