6.13.9 Scalper
6.13.9.1 Scalper Micro-Topper 2 (MT2 for short)
The MT2 is a topper with parallel topper flails (parallel toppers). It removes the leaf
base outgrowth which remains on the beet body after the leaf has been topped. Make
sure that the scalper blades are always sufficiently sharpened.
The scalper crown is moved up and down by the beets sticking out from the ground at
various heights. The scalper flail is guided accordingly. The cutting depth is automati-
cally adjusted by these up and down movements.
ADVICE
There must still be a small leaf base outgrowth on all beats, including large beets and
those sticking up well out of the ground.
