Double Press
Operating Instructions
24
The Simba Great Plains Double Press is a
versatile implement designed to perform an
excellent shallow cultivation combined with
effective consolidation. The Double Press
may be towed on its own or in tandem behind
another implement e.g. disc cultivator.
It can be used in reduced tillage systems
behind a disc cultivator to incorporate stubble
or to work down ploughing on medium to
heavy soil types. Like all Simba Great Plains
machines it features the latest innovations
which combine to give an efficient, well-built
unit with unrivalled reliability.
The Double Press consists of a row of
leading tines followed by two rows of
intermeshed press rings.
The use of the Double Press in tandem with
a disc cultivator for straw incorporation, is to
consolidate the straw soil mix through the
soil profile ensuring maximum straw soil
contact to increase the breakdown process,
minimise slug problems and to leave a firm
weatherproof finish.
