The parallel guidance of the roller and the levelling board allows the very easy and independent setting of the working depth. By the simple repositioning of the eccentric pin, the working depth can be conveniently matched to the field and operational conditions.

With the HD tine, AMAZONE offers a tine which, due to its hard metal coating, features an up to three times longer service life.

By using HD tines, running costs are minimised and, at the same time, valuable operating time for readjustment and tine changing is saved.

The “on-grip” tine position has proved its effectiveness particularly when mulch sowing as it guarantees a thorough mixing of soil and organic residues.

Tines “on-grip” break up the soil from beneath. No smeared layers. Coarse soil particles are thrown further than the light ones.

In this way, the fine soil is concentrated in the lower range of the worked zone whereas the coarser soil particles remain on the surface. The seed is therefore placed in the area where the fine soil lies with the coarser clods staying on the surface to protect the soil from capping, drying and wind and water erosion, and provide protection for young plants. This creates the optimum conditions for good seedling emergence.

2. Levelling board
3. KW wedge ring roller

The levelling board levels the earth flow between the tines and the roller and presses obstacles downwards. With the universal operating tool, the height of the levelling board can be adjusted with ease.

The benefits:

• Independent height control parallel to the roller Integrated
• overload safety protection allows for upward evasion
• Optionally, the levelling board can also be left out

The optionally available hydraulic depth adjustment for the KX/KG rotary cultivator offers the driver even more comfort and possibilities than before, as now, the levelling board is guided in parallel via the roller and so does not require any readjustment when changing the working depth.

If required, for instance when working deeper on the headland, the rotary cultivator can be comfortably and steplessly adjusted from the tractor cab. So any change in soil conditions can be directly responded to and the optimum quality of work maintained. 

The newly-developed side plates are sprung loaded. Thanks to their suspension, the side plates can be adjusted via a slotted hole and, when worn, be simply exchanged. The universal setting tool supplied as standard is all that is necessary to make the adjustment.

The benefits:

• Convenient depth adjustment
• The spring-loaded guidance makes upward evasion possible

For operation on compaction-sensitive soils and at a reduced working depth, the optionally available tractor wheel mark eradicators make sense. The position of the wheel mark eradicators can be adjusted horizontally and vertically. The overload safety device ensures a constant trip force. The narrow, diamond and wing shares are available as soil-engaging points.

The AMAZONE rotary cultivator tines mix soil and straw evenly through the working depth. Even large amounts of organic residues are properly incorporated.

For the KX and KG rotary cultivators, the best tine is available to suit any demand.

Tine quick change system

The tines are simply pushed into the sockets of the tine carrier and secured with a lynch pin. There is no easier and faster way. There are no tine fixing bolts that require retightening. Even converting tine operation from “on-grip” to trailing mode is quick and simple. The tines, which are forged from special hardened steel, are elastic and wear-resistant.

Integrated stone protection

The sprung tine fixing system allows the tines to yield when stones are encountered. The tines are firmly clamped in the socket in the centre of the tine carrier. The socket becomes wider towards the outside so that the horizontal part of the tine can twist out of position while remaining sprung. Much of the shock is absorbed when the tip of the tine hits a stone. This tine fixing system ensures the safe operation in stony soils and allows the tines on both the KX and KG to be used in the “on-grip” mode.

This socket becomes wider towards the outside, so that the horizontal part of the tine can twist out of position. Much of the shock is thus absorbed when the tip of the tine hits a stone. This tine fixing system ensures reliable operation in stony soils enabling the tines to be used "on-grip" on the KX and the KG.

The tines are simply pushed into the sockets of the tine carrier and secured with a lynch pin. It couldn’t be easier or quicker. There are no tine fixing bolts that require retightening. Converting the tines from "on-grip" to trailing is also quick and easy. The tines are forged from special hardened steel and are yet elastic and extremely wear-resistant.
