4.1 Description
The Great Plains Simba ST-Bar is designed
to be used in conjunction with a 2.5m, 3m,
3.5m or 4m Mounted Simba X-Press. The
Toolbar provides effective tine cultivation
ahead of the disc blades of the Simba
X-Press.
The Trip-Reset tines have a robust, basic
construction and are suitable for all soil
types. The spring-loaded auto-reset system
with a 500kg trip force on each tine prevents
damage to the tines and tine brackets.
When the auto reset system is activated an
initial progressive phase holds the tine in
the ground in a steady position until the trip
point is reached. In the subsequent spring
compression phase the tine is raised gently
and rapidly to a maximum height of 230mm.
The tines can be fitted with a selection of
points depending on application and have 6
depth settings in 25mm increments.
The clip-on points are attached to the tine
with a quick release mechanism. This
makes it possible to change the points
quickly and easily using the tool provided.
