COULTER
LEAD COULTER
The lead coulter features a swivel design for 10 degrees of side-to-side movement to follow ground contours and changing terrain. The 20” blade with 13 waves cut residue with 1,500 lbs. of down force.
SHANK
SHANK DESIGN
Shanks on all models feature special-alloy, steep-sloped ¾” shanks that loosen compaction up to 18” deep for shattering hardpan. The recommended pulling requirements are 20-40 HP per shank depending on soil type.
