Ethridge, TN | The rear roller will help if you have alot of compaction at breaking the chunks you are going to heave up.
With the horsepower you've got, 5 shank is about all you will want, especially if you get it down where you need it. If you don't get "below the compaction layer, it'll look worse than a chisel plow at what you are going to blow out. Get below the layer, and it should look like a "wave" going thru the shanks, soil raising up, breaking, and then falling back down.
Articulated tractor, you are best off with a pull type unit. If you really keep in mind that you need to stay straight when it's in the ground, you can do the 3-pt., but it's not really recommended, as you can really side stress the shanks.
As other poster mentioned, the Sub-tiller 4 is a heavier framed unit. We do have a Sub-tiller II, 11 shank, pull type, that I pull behind a STX485, and given the right conditions, can stop her dead in her tracks. | |
