4.2 3 Point Linkage
The DTX 300 is fitted with a standard
Category 3 linkage at the front of the
machine.
4.3 Tines
The DTX is fitted with either Pro-Lift or
LD (Low Disturbance) tines. The tines are
arranged in a staggered formation to give
lower draft requirements and the ability to
work progressively deeper. The tines are
spaced at 400mm. Each tine is shear bolt
protected. Tine depth is achieved by moving
the tines up and down in the adjustable
clamps.
Different wings are available to suit the soil
conditions and optimise the performance
of the machine.

Standard Wing
P09060
 Maximum soil disturbance with
minimum draft requirement under
normal circumstances.
 Wing angle reduces wear rates on
leg.
Extra Lift Wing
P10392
 Increased lift height and rake angle
creates greater soil disturbance on
all soil types especially in moister
conditions.
 Lower relative distance between
edge of wing and point reduces draft
requirement.
 Has ability to work at lower depths
with no decrease in soil disturbance
or risk of smear.
Extra Wide Wing
P10411
 Improved lateral shatter in moist/wet
soils, or non-cohesive soils.
 Ideal for deep vegetable applications
under light/medium soils.
