4.2 Pro-Active (Sprung)

Tines

The Pro-Active tines are designed to move

soil and shatter clods to a greater degree

than traditional rigid leading tines. The

ability to move in all directions (upwards and

sideways) allows them to clear stones and

other obstructions. They feature simple,

pinned tine depth adjustment for easy depth

variation.

4.3 Levelling Boards

The action of the sprung leaf type levelling

boards is to carry and drop soil to level in

front of the press rings, to rub clod against

clod for additional soil breakdown, to force

clods down into the soil profile and to present

remaining clods passing between the leaves

into the row of press rings.
