Pottinger Terradisc 6001 T - Trailed, folding compact disc harrows

The TERRADISC T models with a working width of 4 to 6 m are transported on a dedicated chassis. This protects the hitch on your tractor and reduces compaction at the headland. On the road the machine is supported by the transport chassis. In the working position at the headland the machine runs on the rear roller. This takes the pressure off the tractor hitch and also reduces soil compaction.

Rugged transport chassis

The wheel chassis is mounted directly to the main frame and linked to the headstock. The wide chassis with 500/45- 17 tyres travels smoothly on the road.

Air brakes or hydraulic brakes are offered as additional equipment options. These systems enhance safety at maximum permissible speeds and together with the parking brake comply with all road safety legislation.

The transport chassis ensures that the weight acting on the hitch and rear axle of the tractor is minimised. During operation the wheel chassis is folded far forwards in front of the rear roller. Trailed models also feature hydraulic accumulators for smooth operation in the field.

At the headland the TERRADISC T is raised onto the rear roller and its weight distributed across the whole working width.

Tough and reliable

The special twin-race taper bearings have been adopted from the construction machinery industry. Ruggedness and reliability are guaranteed as a result whilst impacts are absorbed effortlessly.

• The sealed, twin-race taper bearings are completely maintenance-free.
• A labyrinth seal provides the best protection for the bearing.
• A metal cover encapsulates the labyrinth seal for additional protection.
• The bearings are fitted to the disc carrier arm by a stub axle.
• The nuts are protected by caps mounted on the same stub shaft
