Leesburg, Ohio | Makes a very smooth seedbed by running it in the fall on cornstalks. I agree with the other comment about not popping up rootballs...it just knocks the tops out and smooths over them. I do not agree with the other comment about blowing trash...we had that problem with a GP Turbo Till. The Excelerator moves more dirt, and throws just enough to nail down most of the trash, and will adjust from moving very little dirt to moving a fair bit of dirt...but not like a full-blown disc, and not as much as the Case 330. It will not take out big ruts, but if the field is fairly level, it leaves it very smooth so there is almost no planter unit bounce at all.
Yes, down pressure on wings and star wheels. Can get hydraulic adjust gang angle, but very spendy, and its not hard to adjust manually.
Ours is a 30', and it is all an 8530 Deere mfwd wants at 8 mph. And I would not want to run it slower. I think that tractor is rated at about 300 hp. | |
