‘C’ Leaf Tines
C leaf tines can be fitted with either reversible
points or, more commonly, clip-on sweep
points and are ideal for loosening the soil
surface.
Pigtail Tines
A wide variety of tines and points are available
for the Series 1 Toolbar.
Clip-on Sweep Points (for ‘C’
Leaf Tines)
The clip-on points are attached to the tine with
a quick release mechanism. A wedge shaped
bracket is bolted on to the tine and a hammer
is used to force the coulter on/off the taper
using the removal tool provided to disengage
the quick release system.
The quick release mechanism makes it
possible to change the points quickly and
easily without having to use any other tools.
The quick release system consists of a wedge,
plunger and a rubber spring.
Pigtail tines can be fitted with reversible
points and are ideal for loosening the soil
surface.
