Both model provide 4 functions:

  2. When you have worked soil the plough will throw up mound which becomes your vegetable bed after a quick level off with a garden rake.
  3. After harvesting a crop the plough can be used to repair the bed by throwing up the loose soil in the furrow.
  4. The plough will deliver an excellent immediate drain in almost any condition – not perfectly formed, but very effective.

Technical Details

SINGLE ROTARY PLOUGH

This unique attachment is world-renowned for its superior performance, versatility and easy handling. Designed by the Berta Franco Company in Italy, the Rotary Plough accomplishes a multitude of tasks efficiently and effectively.

Four spiral blades spin at 290 RPM on a vertical shaft, digging effortlessly into all types of soil — including hardened, rock-filled dirt that has yet to be broken. Debris is discharged to the right side, allowing the operator to build raised beds with multiple passes.

The Rotary Plough engages the ground up to 12” deep, and can be regulated by a depth wheel that also provides easy transportation.

The Rotary Plough can accomplish these tasks and more:

  • Break new ground
  • Power compost cover crops
  • Build raised beds
  • Create drainage ditches
  • Power hilling

The Swivel Rotary Plough is also available for special applications.

SWIVEL ROTARY PLOUGH

The Swivel Rotary Plough works similarly to the Rotary Plough, but instead of one plowshare throwing soil to the right, the Swivel Plough has a second ploughshare that can be set for left soil discharge. At the end of each pass, a lever on the rear of the attachment allows for easy changing between the two plowshares.

Each ploughshare has four spiral blades that spin up to 300 RPMs on a vertical shaft, digging effortlessly into all types of soil—including hardened, rock-filled dirt that has yet to be broken. Debris is discharged to the left OR right side (not simultaneously), allowing the operator to build raised beds with multiple passes.

Like the Rotary Plough, the Swivel Rotary Plough can break new ground, power compost cover crops, build raised beds, create drainage ditches, and more. The Swivel Plough is designed for use on slopes, tight spaces, and extensive operations.

This attachment is heavy at 150 pounds, which is why we recommend mounting a Bumper Weight Kit to the front of the tractor to help offset and balance the rear weight of the implement. This makes it easier to turn at the end of the row and lift the plowshares off the ground when swivelling.
