800-627-8569 11 Reel Disk from McFarlane Mfg.
Spiral Reels (3)
Following the disk gangs is a bank of seven-blade, 18
inch diameter spiral reels that crosscut the residue and
further mix it into the soil, aiding in decomposition.
Three-Bar Harrow (4)
To produce a fi rm and level seedbed for optimum seed
germination and yields, the 3-bar spike harrow follows
the spiral reel. The heavy-duty harrow follows the ground
contour closely and is fl exible enough to allow residue to
fl ow through it. It also breaks up large pieces of soil and
disperse the residue evenly across the tillage area.
There are three attachment points for the pull chains on
the harrow section. Moving the attachment point will
either cause the section to lay more fl at (less aggressive)
or will cause the teeth to stand up more straight (more
aggressive).
In situations that do not require the extra leveling of the
harrow section, such as heavy fall residue, the sections
can be removed or raised above the ground level.
Rear Roller Baskets (5)
The fi nal operation of the reel disk, for the perfect
seedbed, is the 12 inch diameter rolling basket. The
rolling basket features eight, high-carbon fl at bars with
adjustable down pressure to make it aggressive for clod
sizing and fi rming or passive for soil separating and
conditioning.
