SC Type Rotary Cultivator 90-170hp

“SC” Type Maschio Rotary Cultivators are designed for use on medium sized agricultural tractors from 90 to 170hp and are typically used for horticultural and agricultural work.

Main features:

• Cat II
• Slip Clutch protected 6 Spline PTO
• Used at 540 PTO rpm gives three rotor speeds 133, 162, 220 rpm
• Used at 1000 PTO rpm gives three rotor speeds 181, 246, 300 rpm
• Drive – Side gears immersed in oil bath
• 6 blades per flange
• Bonnet spring adjusters
• Skids, Cage Roller, Packer Roller or Pneumatic Wheel Kit

Front and rear input multi speed PTO gearbox running at 540/1000 rpm, 3 speed settings at 540rpm PTO rpm giving a choice of 133, 162 & 220 rotor rpm, 3 speed settings at 1000 PTO rpm giving a choice of 181, 246 & 300 rotor rpm.

PTO shaft with slip clutch protection, 1” 3/8, 6 spline tractor side yoke.

Heavy duty gear drive running in a sealed oil bath to give constant lubrication during work.

Universal CAT II three point swinging hitches allow the machine to follow the contours on undulating ground.

CE Safety guards as standard.

The lower spring on the pressure rod that is connected to the rear levelling bonnet prevents the rotary cultivator from rolling over when the machine is being detaching from the tractor.

The new Duo-cone sealing system guarantees reliability without the need for maintenance.  You can achieve at least 50% longer life from the Duo-cone system when compared standard systems in the most demanding working environments.

The sealing system is completely waterproof or “amphibious” allowing the rotor and bearing to run in its own oil supply, this allows the rotor to work and be reliable in the most dustiest environments or even work immersed in water and yet the seals will still prevent water and dust ingress into the rotor and hubs.

The rotor is supported by oversized SKF roller bearings.

The levelling bonnet comes as standard complete with a sprung mechanical rod that puts constant downward pressure on the bonnet and acts as a shock absorber protecting the bonnet from damage, whist working in stony conditions.

The SC type Rotary Cultivator has 6 blades per flange ensuring a fine tilth is produced.

Blade Options

COBRA Blade
Especially designed to work in very hard dry conditions, the Cobra rotor has a high number of vertical blades enabling it to cut in to the hardest soil with ease and creating an extremely fine seedbed.

CONDOR Blade
Especially designed for soils with high concentration of stones, due to the blade placement and its high strength with a knife edge, this prevents stones from being carried round the rotor as they easily pass through the staggered spacing.

A protective skid on either side of the machine controls the working depth and protects the main transmission cover from wear.

Depth adjustment is controlled by two mechanical adjusters.

The ROTARY CULTIVATOR rollers adapt the machines for different types of soil and different requirements of seed bed preparation. Two types are available on the SC TYPE - cage roller and packer roller.

Cage Roller - Ø450mm

Works well on medium soil types and in low moisture conditions creating a good seed bed.

Packer Roller - Ø450mm & Ø500mm

The toothed Packer Roller works well breaking up any surface clods further and at the same leaving an excellent finish, ready for seeding. This roller also comes standard with tungsten coated scrapers.

Rear Roller Bearings

Strength is designed in to the build of each type of roller and the end bearings are protected by their casings whilst grease nipples are positioned out of harm's way.

Tungsten Scrapers

Adjustable 'Long Life' Tungsten scrapers are fitted to all packer rollers and rubber rollers, they are positioned low, close to the soil at the rear of the roller ensuring soil does not build up into large clumps before being cleaned off.
