Well formed ridges
Shaping board for building ridges with specific characteristics from loose to firm soil with a smooth surface

Large capacity
High output due to a large hopper of 2200 kg.

Ridge shaping on light soils
For an improved water absorption on light soils, cage rollers can be used in combination with spring-loaded ridging bodies.

Agility and manoeuvrability
The compact design of the carried machine gives a high maneuverability on the headland

Combined plant protection
GRIMME tank system TS 410, authorized for liquid chemicals to be applied onto the seed potatoes and/or into the furrow.

Combining work steps
The combination of a potato planter (rear mounted) with a extended fertilizer spreader (front mounted) enable to realize an under-root fertilisation as well as the application of liquid seed dressing and furrow treatment agent in a single pass with potato planting.
Benefits
- The compact design of the carried machine provides a high maneuverability on the headland
- The powerful planting element enables a simple adaption to the tuber size and ensures therefore an exact spacing.
- The combination of specially developed furrow opener, planting cups, the longest singling way, an adjustable drop rod and a low drop height enable an even planting distance in the required planting depth.
- Several options, which are well approved in bigger machines, are available to increase the output
- Comfortable setting of all important parameters from the tractor
- With the hydraulic height adjustment an easy adaption to various bed heights is possible. The option is either available via manual control from the tractor terminal or alternative automatic controlled.
- Different row and tracks width available
- Narrow, fixed furrow opener ensure an optimum planting position
- The deflector plates keep the soil in the bed, thus providing for adequate soil for ridge shaping.
- Different options for the ridge shaping, shaping board for a loose to firm ridge with a smooth surface or cage rollers for a more fine crumbled ridge structure.
- Tipping hopper keeping 2200 kg for long fields
- The GRIMME nozzle system ensures complete dressing of the tuber, and the GRIMME tank system enables a safe handling as well as a proper crop protection
- Change between seed dressing and liquid chemical furrow application in a machine is possible
- Option to applicate micro granular directly into the furrow for an optimum growing start or for seed protection
- Comfortable machine control with the GRIMME video system
