Right dose, right place in any conditions
The new AERO 32.1 mounted, pneumatic fertiliser spreader offers working widths of 24, 27, 28, or 30 metres, to complete KUHN’s range of pneumatic fertiliser spreaders.
Kuhn has added a new model to its Master plough range with the 4- to 6-bodied Vari-Master L – an ideal fit with the new generation of short wheelbase tractors from 200 to 300hp.
Filling the gap between the Master 153 and the 183, the Master L has an on-land format allowing the use of tractors equipped with broad tyres or tracks, protecting the soil from compaction.
The plough’s geometry uses special kinematics to cancel any drift associated with a change in offset or working width, ensuring the plough remains perfectly aligned with the direction of travel, helping to reduce wear and fuel consumption. A patented furrow closing angle-of-attack adjustment system is said to improve residue flow and burial, in a single movement and without need for tools.
Maintenance-free, the VARI system offers increased work rates, and its linkage mechanism, integrated into the housing, provides excellent shock protection. A welded structure and forged wear parts help extend service life.
A new arched plough beam creates less wheel overrun, allowing operators to work close to the edges of the paddock and get a good finish.
