Uniformly distribute heavy crop residue. This is accomplished by: ➢ The ½” diameter x 24” length tines have more vibration or ‘action’ to distribute crop residue. ➢ Increasing the number of tines (1.43” spacing between tines). ➢ The increased number of tines have less downforce per tine resulting is less soil firming and superior field finish. ➢ The increased soil surface contact by the tines results in superior weed control, incorporation of herbicides and soil-seed contact when harrowing after broadcast seeding. What makes the Rite Way MH7200 different relative to other 7-bar harrows? ➢ Longer harrow tines increase harrow ‘action’ and improve trash clearance and wear life. Elmers and Bourgault use 22” tines.
DURABILITY Built to Last ➢ 4 x 8” HSS tubular steel (1/4” wall) trailer frame construction. ➢ 8” x 8” HSS tubular steel booms. Wall thickness is ¼” for models up to 50’ and 3/8” wall thickness for models above 50’. ➢ Steel hydraulic lines on booms. ➢ Powder coat paint
DURABILITY
Tine Wear Life: ➢ Parallel linkage and balanced downforce result in uniformtine wear from front to back of the harrow section. ➢ MH-7200 uses MAX LIFEBTT harrow tines that last 6X longer than regular tines. TheMAX LIFEprocess infuses tungsten carbide onto the harrow tine creating the toughest and most economical option available. Field tests have proven thatMAX LIFEtines outlast regular tines by a minimum of 6X. ➢ Our field evaluations indicate that the MAX LIFE system is less prone to crop residue ‘hooking’ observed with carbide plated tines . MAX LIFE vs. regular tine after 10,000 acres of wear
PRODUCTIVITY
Hydraulic Tine Angle & Down Pressure ➢ Adjust tine angle from 40 –85°using the hydraulic remote in your tractor cab. ➢ Increase tine angle for more aggressive harrowing in dry conditions. ➢ Decrease tine angle for wet conditions to reduce straw held in harrows and spread straw uniformly.
➢ Increase tine angle for more aggressive harrowing in dry conditions. ➢ Increasing down force onto the harrows is simple –increase tine angle.
Autofold
➢ Rear pivoting wheels make folding and unfolding the harrow easy.
Solid Draft Arm System
➢ Draft arms lock into place using a unique locking mechanism. ➢ Draft arms allow the operator the ability to lift the harrows and back up the machine to avoid running into obstructions. ➢ No more ‘cable related drama’.
Easy Tine Replacement.
➢ Servicing tines is as easy as removing 1 bolt and pulling the harrow bar from the formed steel receiver.
