TIP ROLLER

Adding either Shattaboards and/or Slicerboards will allow you to cultivate, level and consolidate in front of the rolls, transforming them rolls into an all round cultivation tool.

Hydraulic operation enables the levelling board to be retracted when necessary and controls the working angle. The locking device links the springboards together harnessing their combined strength to improve levelling.

The Slicerboard knife edges slice into clods on heavy ground enhancing the tilth created by the board.

• Close coupled - strength and reliability
• Height and angle adjustment
• Adjustable wearing paddles - extend life
• Locking device - enhances

Two rows of sprung finger Straw Tines can turn a set of HE-VA Tip Rolls into a true multi-purpose machine, capable of helping growers reduce their reliance on chemicals in combating pest and weed problems.

Following initial cultivation passes, the heavy-duty Tip Rollers fitted with Straw Tines can be put to work pre-drilling with the tines providing shallow soil movement to generate a surface tilth. Rows of breaker rings then provide a firming action and a corrugated, weather-proof finish ready for the drill. The aggressive stirring action of tines disturbs and disrupts slug activity, destroying clutches of eggs before they hatch.

As well as creating consolidated stale seedbeds ahead of drilling, Tip Rollers equipped with Straw Tines can also be used following the combine to evenly spread and break up crop residues, prompting more rapid breakdown.

At the same time the tines’ action can help to generate a fine surface tilth which, when consolidated by the heavy roller rings, produces ideal conditions to get weed seeds to germinate.

Mounted on a hydraulically activated toolbar directly ahead of the roller rings, the twin rows of 16mm diameter straw harrow tines can be lifted out of work for conventional post-drilling seedbed consolidation work.

With a Multi-Seeder mounted onto your Tip Roller it can be transformed into an OSR and/or cover crop drill making it even more useful on the farm.
