East Prairie, MO | Local dealer has one of these setting in the yard after I got home from vacation, Appears overseas, maybe australian? About 30' wide....can't decide if it's a primary tillage or finish tool or both, I'm leaning toward both but bet it is a sand tool, seems like it wouldn't like sticky ground with all the close spaced harrow teeth ahead of the baskets. Seen one? Ran one? Expensive? Just curious, never seen one before....

Warburg, AB | Lemken brand I think? Seen pictures of it. Looks respectably built.

East-Central Ontario | Yep Lemken, from Germany. It's kind of a multi-tillage carrier with different implements you switch onto it. Haven't seen that particular one run but no cheaper than other European tillage equipment. |
|

|
South Western Ontario, Canada | They work great on light soil. Heavy soil and rocky soils, they don't handle so well. Good design, neat features just not built for some of the soils over here. |

Sumner GA, Located in southwest GA, | Lemken Rubin. Bout the same as a Horsch Anderson Joker. High speed harrow is all it is.

Central Michigan | Never seen that brand but have seen a Horsch Joker run. Similar tool, they call theirs a high speed compact disc. Around here this year they have been used as a secondary tillage tool behind fall ripped corn. I can't see why they couldn't work as a primary tool in some min till applications.

ne il | Thats a neat video impressive. I dont know of any american made implement that could go thru that tall of material at that speed. |

East Prairie, MO | I couldn't understand a word that guy said on that video LOL! Yep, the one that the quadtrack is pulling looks like the one sitting here, must pull harder than I thought...looks like a great tool for the second pass on cornstalks ahead of planting wheat or something like that, Might be a one passer on bean stubble in the fall to plant stale on in the spring possibly, definetely a lighter soil tool I'd say. |

Alberta | Takes big power 12 to 15 hp per foot works awesome after 8 mph, demoed one in spring in rocky sod grey wooded soil that was pasture for 10 yrs did 2 passes and left a gorgeous seedbed, seeded right after, lots of money. I have a 9460R and it took everything I had to pull it, never bought it though was 110 grand. I figured I'd stick with my 38' kello disk at 4 mph and save some money |

| We put in a 18'x40' Scwheiss hyd door this summer in an existing building. Other than being a little slow opening & closing it a well made door. Right after having it put in we had a small issue. I called Scwheis & they talked me thrum the problem. They called back later that day to make sure it was working right. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. |

Centralia, MO | I talked to a local dealer that is importing them. He called it a one pass tillage machine. He said it handles debris better than a disk because it has no center spools so it would not wrap up or plug up in moister soils. He had a 9 meter unit he was demo-ing and it takes a big 4WD to pull it (400hp +). |

East Prairie, MO | I'm guessing this would be a 9 meter as it looked about 30ft wide. More than my 305 magnum would want and from what was said about the price earlier won't make any difference anyway lol! I am in the market for a disk and this caught my eye. Figured it was good in trash with no axle, same look as my old DMI 730 disk ripper gangs and that thing would pass the trash! |

southern MN | Saw a red painted implement basically just like that, 3pt, at Farmfest this week. It was in the back row (east side) wife and I were running out of steam so I only looked at it, can't remember the name now. It had smooth blades, not the notched, but otherwise same action, including the stablizer straight blades on the end.
Wish I remembered more about it, it did catch my interest as to what the goal of the machine was.

Eastern Ont | Same category as an Amazone but heavier

You will not want to own a disc after owning one of these
Lots of power to run but at 6-8 mph you can cover alot of ground and leave a seed bed ready to plant usually after one pass6
over 8mph you start to get a bounce
Take them into a hay field, one pass and you can notill behind it, two passes an you can conventional till

SC Sask | Check out Degelman Pro-Till. Very similar to the Joker and Lemken. |

Ontario, Canada | Machine in picture is a Lemken Rubin. We have had one for 3 years now. Every area could be different but we have some pretty tough, rocky ground and it has done a good job and has proven to be very durable. Pretty versatile machine if set according to conditions. At our time of purchase 5m we bought was comparable in price to some vertical till machines we were looking at that were sized according to the tractor we were going to be using. We have 260hp on our 5m Rubin and I wouldnt want any less for some of our conditions.

East Prairie, MO | Wow they DO pull hard! Hoping they demo it around so I can see it run even though I can't pull it. |

Mazabuka - Zambia | Good unit. We use it for incorporating sun hemp prior to planting sugar cane. The only problem we have found is that it does tend to wind the sun hemp fibres between the dust cap and seal so have to replace a few seals. Found that when we increased speed this seems to have sorted out the problem. |

arthur , ontario | WE just used one over the weekend for the final leveling of our clay based tractor pulling track, after deep chiseling and double discing, this rig did a beautiful job of breaking lumps and leveling ridges .don't think it's meant to go very deep though? I believe up here the wizards call this vertical tillage?apparently the "cat's ass" or until something else comes along? |

Ontario, Canada | How hard they pull depend greatly on what you are doing with it. If working at shallow depths in dry conditions in spring time we have no problems at all. Fall work where we may sometimes work quite a bit deeper and ground conditions are not always as dry we could use more power. |

Almond Wisconsin | Demo'd one and it is really impressive in consistent soils. It plugged on my sandy hills and at 8mph it made a mess. Takes power because of high speed. |
