Martinsville, Ohio | Decent, cheap, like all chisels replace the points and keep the wheel bearings in...
Disks hold up pretty well...

Dallas Center IA 515-720-2463 | I think they are the best disk chisel ever made.
Mind has never plugged with trash.
13 shanks is going to take a whole lot of smoke to pull. |

Illinois | I haven't owned one, but I can testify that they used to be one of the most common outfits around. Even my local Deere dealer told me about 10 years ago, when disk chisels were more the norm, before disk rippers, that the A-C well outperformed and outlasted the Deere model at the time. |

west central illinois | You won't like it if you have any foxtail. Mine will plug once and a while in corn stalks but rarely, they don't like wet stalks. I have broken shanks before hitting rocks, the allis chalmers has a different shank design, if you break one of those it has to be updated to the deutz with a new stile braket. Over all good chisel but I would rather have a sunflower just because it has 3 rows of shanks and the AC has 2 rows. |

Dallas Center IA 515-720-2463 | I have only had it behind my Allis-Chalmers 7080.
Close to 23,000 lbs, 20 point radials
11 shanks, it is a load.
I have not used it for a couple years, big reason is it takes a lot of fuel to pull.
On plugging. I do not chop or disk in front of it, or does my brother with his.
In the first post I said mine had never been plugged, wrong, it has been plugged running next to a weedy fence, also hard on valve stems.
But it has never plugged in a field center.
I have ideas that using a chisel will make a new plowpan.
Using a ripper will made a new plowpan way down there.
So I change around. This year and last I am using my Bobby Greif Special disk. Every other blade gone. A real cutting digging machine, and doesn't cost much, or take a lot of fuel. Very happy with what it does. |

| Though it seems it wouldn't be totally unreasonable for the silver tractor to be capable of putting out about the same HP as the orange tractor. |

Archer Iowa | make sure you are getting one with double springs on the teeth. The green ones ahve a different style for the hitch. It has a different spacing for the center two shanks. We use 4 inch twisted shoves. It will plug once in awhile. Should be cheap. |
