SEEDBED PREPARATIONManaging the soil profile to

maximize water uptake and

prepping your seedbed are

critical. Regardless of your

farming practices, Great Plains

literally has every piece of

tillage equipment you need,

including our new Turbo-Max™.

Turbo-Max is tearing up the

competition with its innovative

design and features.

NUTRIENT APPLICATIONFor maximum plant benefit,

precise placement of High

Value Nutrients is a must. By

applying nutrients at the right

time, you can virtually eliminate

leaching and denitrification.

The Great Plains Nutri-Pro® and

sprayer lines are the perfect

solution to help you increase

utilization while reducing costs.

SEED PLACEMENTTo maximize yield, three things

must be done well: seed

spacing, seed depth, and

seed-to-soil contact without

sidewall compaction. Great

Plains Drills and Planters are

designed and built using these

principles. Again, no matter

what your farming practices,

we have the right seeding

configuration to achieve a

uniform stand in a variety of

crops. We are the seed place-

ment specialists!

VERTICAL TILLAGE

• Horizontal tillage leaves yield-robbing density-change layers in the soil.

• Roots in a top, lower-density layer are turned sideways when a higher-density layer is encountered.

• Vertical tillage leaves a uniform, unrestricted soil profile that promotes maximum root development and increased yields.

• Plants raised in a vertical tillage system are more drought resistant, reach and utilize more nutrients, and have greater standability due to healthier stalks and root systems.

• Vertical tillage INCREASES YIELDS!

- Finishing tool that levels the soil without using sweeps. This tool evenly distributes residue and levels the field without causing a density change that can discourage root growth.

- Designed for the corn-on-corn producers to loosen all root balls, size residue, and leave the ground level enough for one pass in the spring. Runs up to 12" deep.

- Eliminates compaction layers and soil density changes in one pass. Choice of no-till or straight leg shanks.

- Very versatile tool that sizes residue and prepares the seedbedwithout introducing yield-damaging horizontal layers.

- Allows for a “crisscross” pattern for chopping residue and working the soil while still maintaining the benefits of vertical tillage.

-With its 7-1/2" blade spacing and adjustable gang angle from 0° to 6°, provides more aggressive ground leveling, weed removal, and enhanced residue sizing.

The Series II Turbo-Till® builds on the solid reputation of theoriginal Turbo-Till as the most versatile vertical tillage toolavailable. It utilizes two ranks of our exclusive Turbo Coulters to aggressively chop residue without hairpinning. Turbo-Till effectively manages residue and reduces compaction in a wide range of conditions, providing a consistent well-prepared seedbed for planting. Improvements to the Series II include 3" C-shank standards and

heavy-duty rubber mounted gang bearings as standard equipment. New 12', 15', 18', and 24' working widths have been added to the 30' and 40' models to better fit available horsepower. Current uses include warming and drying cool wet soils, incorporating animal waste, and preparing a consistent, well-prepared seedbed for planting. Turbo-Till is also an excellent fall tool to size and incorporate residue to promote the decaying process.

DROP AXLE - The greaseless anti-rotational pivot pin virtually eliminates wear in the drop axle pivot.

RUBBER MOUNTED BEARINGS - Greaseable heavy-duty self-aligning gang bearings provide ex-cellent wear life and outstanding rock protection.

TURBO COULTER - The turbo design allows the blade flute to attack the residue vertically, provid-ing improved cutting, penetration, and decreased hairpinning.

ATTACHMENT

HYDRAULIC WEIGHT TRANSFER - Transfer valve adjusts weight from center to wings, providing even, constant down pressure to the full width.

Rolling Harrow & Reel

TURBO-TILL - Turbo Coult-ers combined with Patented Rolling Spike Harrows create a smooth level surface on top of the ground and at the planting depth ensuring the planter runs smoothly and seed is precisely placed into a firm seedbed for quick emergence.

SPRING COULTERS - Spring coulter machines raise and lower (vibrate) as soil density changes, leaving a rough, uneven sub-sur-face. A planter following a spring coulter machine has a tough time placing seed accurately.

CONCAVE FLUTED COULTERS - Concave fluted coulters/disks may look like Turbo Coulters, but move soil horizontally, causing compaction. Concave blades running at an angle cause ridging at high speeds. The uneven sub-surface results in poor seed placement and emergence.

CHOPPER GANGS - Both the Turbo gang and the chopper gang are suspended by 1" x 3" C-shanks and both gangs use the heavy-duty 211 rubber-cushioned bearing in cast housing to provide reliable service.

ROLLING SPIKE HARROW - Loosens, levels, and breaks up clods. This attachment puts the “finish-ing touch” on the perfect seedbed.

CHOPPER BLADES - The angled chopper blades run perpendicular to the Turbo Blades ensuring complete and thorough chopping of the residue and a profile that is level and uniform to the depth of the front coulters.

The Turbo-Chopper® from Great Plains combines our aggressive Turbo Blades with the action of a turbo-patterned chopper reel. This allows for a “crisscross” pattern for chopping residue and working the soil while still maintaining the benefits of vertical tillage. This unit offers the versatility of a fall tillage tool combined with its use as a spring tillage unit for seedbed preparation. The “crisscross” pattern of this unit allows for the loosening and removal of root balls. The Turbo Coulters are 20" in diameter with 10" spacing, followed by the 18" diameter chopper reels. Both gangs of coulter and

chopper reels are mounted on heavy 3" C-shanks with rubber-cushioned 211 bearings.

The 18" chopper reels consist of six 4-1/2" high carbon steel blades. The unique spiral design allows constant contact with the soil to maximize cutting and reduce the vibration experienced with competitive reels. The chopper reels work perpendicular to the Turbo Coulters, providing a smooth seedbed for your planter. Our patented rolling harrow and reel combination is the recommended rear attachment for the ultimate seedbed for your planter.

CONSTANT LEVEL HITCH - The exclusive hitch design provides continuous leveling of the unit as it is raised and lowered.

ROLLING HARROW MODULES - Prepare the perfect seedbed by leveling the ground and crushing the clods.

Ultra-Till® by Great Plains is yet another innovative option in a “systems” approach to vertical tillage. It is intended for secondary field operations and one-pass field finishing prior to planting. The Ultra-Till can be compared to a field finisher or cultivator, but with one major difference. Because it’s not equipped with shank-mounted shovels, it will not create yield-robbing horizontal soil density layers. It is these compacted layers that roots have trouble penetrating.

The Ultra-Till can be equipped with low-concavity disc blades or our exclusive Turbo Coulters on the front to effectively cut residue into manageable pieces and loosen the seedbed soil. Blade depth is controlled hydraulically. Following the front coulters or disc blades are two rows of opposing rolling harrow gangs, angled at 30°. The rear gangs move the residue back into place, leaving a smooth, firm surface for a perfect seedbed.

The Great Plains InLine Sub-Soiler is another step in the evolution of our vertical tillage family designed to eliminate yield-robbing compaction layers created by horizontal tillage tools such as plows, disks, and sweep implements. The InLine Sub-Soiler’s frame features high tensile 3/8" wall tubing for added strength and durability. It is equipped with three to eight shanks that are spaced 24" to 40" apart, and is available with two shank options: 3/4" and 1-1/4". The 3/4" no-till shank and no-till point provides maximum shatter with minimum surface disturbance. The 1-1/4" straight leg shank creates more surface disturbance for minimum tillage.

If your goal is to size and incorporate residue in the top 4-5" of top soil while leaving the soil level enough for a single-pass tool in the spring, the Great Plains Turbo-Chisel® is the tool of choice!

Great Plains’ exclusive 22" Turbo Coulters on 7-1/2" spacing start the process by slicing residue. The 22" blades run on a 1-3/4" gang bolt with cast spools, putting the weight “in the gang” for outstanding performance and reliability. The gang bearings are field-proven 211 rubber-mounted bearings with cast housings mounted to our heavy-duty 1" x 3" C-shank standards. The coulter bar is hydraulically adjustable for on-the-go depth control, offering the flexibility to till up to 12" deep.

Models available are 7'-15' shank rigid or 9'-23' shank folding with a recommended horsepower requirement of 30 hp per shank. Units can be equipped with either standard chisel shanks throughout, or a combination of toggle trip parabolic shanks on the front row, followed by either parabolic chisel shanks or standard chisel shanks. The heavy-duty toggle trip shank is designed to run 1-1/2" deeper than the chisel shanks on the rear bar and trips at 2,450 lbs. Rear attachment options include the choice of a “buster bar” to level and smooth the ground or our Great Plains chopper wheels to crumble clods while firming the soil.

There are other coulter chisels available on the market… but there is only one Turbo-Chisel!

Every farming operation has different and diverse needs, and at times, conventional tillage equipment is the best solution. We have focused our conventional tillage line around dependability and unconventional features that make our products stand out from the competition.

Our Disk Harrows incorporate features such as hydraulic leveling, tension nuts on each end of the gang bolts, and heavy-duty C-shanks with rubber mounted cast bearings. These key features are just a few examples of benefits that provide the user with the best performing, most reliable disk in the industry.

Our secondary and finish tools include the versatile Disc-O-Vator and Field Cultivator. Both feature the Max-MixTM Shank pattern. This exclusive pattern ensures that no shank is closer than 28" on an individual bar. Soil is moved one

direction and then is returned, providing excellent residue distribution and superior herbicide incorporation.

The Disc-O-Vator also utilizes a single row of low-concavity disc blades or our exclusive Turbo Coulter. The Turbo Coulter allows the tool to operate in higher residue situations, and at higher speeds, sizing the residue for better flow through the shanks.

Our finishing tools include the Seedbed Conditioner. This tool crumbles clods and firms the seedbed, making it a perfect planting environment.

The Plains Plow is a specialty tool, aimed at wheat producing states to kill weeds while leaving the stubble on the surface.

Every Great Plains conventional tillage tool is field proven and has the reputation of being at the “top of their class”.

With the introduction of the 3000 and 4000 Series Disk Harrows, Great Plains not only be-comes a full-line tillage equipment company, but provides Disk Harrows with all the key ingredients customers demand in top-of-the-line equipment. Six models, which range in cutting widths from 23' to 36' in 3-foot incre-ments, promise reliability, superior cutting ability, optimum weight per blade, and a level, finished surface.

The double offset disk harrow is still one of the most efficient ways to mechanically eliminate weeds and re-level rutted harvest fields. Like anything though, the best results come from a product that was designed for the job.

To that end, our 3 000 and 4000 series Disk Harrows feature 6-gauge or 4-gauge ˝rollable disc blades, a 20° angle on the front gangs and an 18° angle on rear gangs, spring C-shank bearing standards, and wings that flex up 14° and down 9° to handle terraces and rolling terrain. Service and reliability also receive top billing with features like 1-3/4" gang shafts capped with castle nuts on both ends for quick disas-sembly and blade or bearing replacement. Heavy-duty cast rubber-encased bearings are also standard to ensure machine dura-bility and longer service life.

SPRING-OFFSET C-SHANKS - Offset C-shanks cushion the gangs and protect the unit. The offset design maximizes the clearance between the disc blades to help prevent plugging.

SPRING-LOADED SCRAPERS - Standard scrapers are spring loaded; quickly make them rigid by tightening a bolt.

HEAVIER SPOOLS - The ductile cast spools used on the Great Plains disk are among the heaviest in the industry. At 23.55 pounds, they put more weight closer to the ground. The result is better penetration, plus longer bearing and standard life. Ductile cast spools also resist breakage and collapsing compared to steel pipe style spacers. These spools are a full 6.5" in diameter, as much as 1'' larger than some competitors. This gives more support to the center of the blade, reducing blade breakage.

DOUBLE OFFSET - Design ensures com-plete center cutout and eliminates the need for a middle breaker.

Several changes and enhance-ments were made to the 8000 Series Field Cultivator to make a good unit even better! Shank spacing throughout the ma-chine, especially around tires, has been improved, ensuring no shanks are closer than 28". The hinges and fold system have also been “beefed up”, making folding and unfolding smoother and more reliable. Heavier 6-bolt hubs are used in all locations on all models and

the tongue is now low pro-file and “single pole” to allow tighter turns without interfer-ence with the tractor‘s 3-point hitch quick coupler. On floating hitch models, the wing wheels are moved back for better bal-ance and allow heavier harrow attachments without hav-ing negative tongue weight. Caster wheel design has been improved for better reliability and the pivot points are now maintenance free.
