Minimal maintenance increases work hours

Sealed with industrial-grade seals
Oil bath tapered roller bearings, sealed with industrial-grade seals, keep maintenance to a minimum and profitable working hours at a maximum. The bearings come complete with a wear plate.

Keeping gangs tightened increases wear life

Gang nut wrenches are always there when needed
End washers help keep the gang shaft end nut tightened during operation, increasing gang wear life.
Two gang nut wrenches are supplied with each unit and securely attached to the unit, ready to use when the gangs need tightening.

Clevis hitch makes hookup easy

Clevis hitch is built strong for tough jobs
The clevis hitch has a durable design and is designed for ease of use, long life, and tough working conditions.

Control arms level in ground and during transport

Easy to set for desired soil condition
Two separate control arms are standard, one for transport leveling and one for leveling while the disk is in the ground. Once set for a given soil condition, the disk will continue to perform with consistency.

Scrapers clean disk blades

Scrapers work great in wet and sticky soils
Adjustable disk blade scrapers keep disk blades clean and performing in wet and sticky soils for increased productivity.
