The Summers VRT Renegade enhances its utility with new iControl™ Implement Control technology and innovative design features. It offers exceptional adaptability for a range of tillage activities, including vertical tillage and transitioning fields from minimal to fully cultivated states. This tillage tool boasts the ability to function effectively across various conditions and seasons, facilitated by advanced control options such as wireless iPad connectivity, which allows for real-time adjustments in the field.
A standout feature is the latest Samurai™ disk blades, which are heat-treated and designed with a sawtooth pattern for efficient soil engagement and residue management. These blades ensure optimal performance under diverse soil conditions, backed by durable, maintenance-free hubs and a protective urethane spring mechanism.
The VRT Renegade also features customizable settings via the iControl app, enabling operators to save and recall presets for specific tillage needs. Adjustments include blade angles, tillage depth, and rolling basket pressures, all operable from the cab. This flexibility, combined with easy transitions between transport and field modes and additional soil finishing tools like adjustable harrows and rolling baskets, underscores the VRT Renegade's role as a versatile, farmer-inspired solution to modern tillage demands.

The NEXT GENERATION of VERTICAL TILLAGE
Light Tillage Performance with Improved Soil Disturbance
The front gang blades are positioned at a 3-degree angle, and the rear gang blades are positioned at a 5-degree angle. Thorough testing has shown this to be an optimum configuration to achieve the ideal field finish for most farmers. However, the gang angles can be manually adjusted in the shop from 1 to 5 degrees, if desired, to accommodate more unique soil types, conditions and personal preferences.
Blades are spaced 10 inches apart on each gang with the front and rear gangs offset for an effective 5-inch blade spacing. This design results in superior residue flow, yet maximum tillage coverage for thorough soil tilth and excellent residue sizing.
The Summers exclusive Osmundson Mfg. Co. patented Samurai disk blades on the Supercoulter Samurai offer the latest in blade technology. They are slightly concave with a sawtooth design that excels at sizing residue and moving soil. The blades perform well in both wet soils and hard, dry conditions, and they are heat treated for extended life.
Similar to our popular Supercoulter, the simplistic design of the Supercoulter Samurai has a light enough footprint to help producers get in the field earlier than bulkier tillage tools allow. This advantage allows farmers to complete spring fieldwork quicker, so they can plant sooner.
The patented hydraulic hitch allows operators to easily optimize in-field performance by transferring weight between the front and rear gangs. More weight can be shifted to the front to help the Supercoulter Samurai slice through tough residue and hard, dry ground. Shifting weight to the rear results in more aggressive soil movement and better residue incorporation. The hydraulic hitch can also be operated in float position, which works well for seedbed preparation and operation in rocky conditions.
The unique Super-Flex™ gang mounting system is designed to absorb shocks from rocks and stumps, providing protection from blade damage. The toggle-mounted, 7-Lip sealed ball bearings are also designed to self-align as the gang flexes.
The Supercoulter Samurai offers 0 to 5.5 inches of tillage depth. Dual axles help the implement maintain an accurate depth along all field contours. Also, the standard high-floatation tires and heavy-duty hubs are ideal for use in a variety of soil conditions.
This recommended finishing attachment is an ideal combination for distributing residue, breaking up clumps and producing a uniform soil profile. The rolling baskets feature Summers’ patented internal mud scrapers to prevent mud build-up. The hydraulic basket control allows you to easily vary the amount of pressure on the baskets or raise them for certain conditions.
