Kuhn’s new EL402R folding power tiller has a working width of 6m and is suited for use with tractors up to 400hp.
This new machine uses a large diameter rotor (550mm) and 144 carbide coated blades to produce a very fine tilth, making it suitable for specialist cropping requirements as well as for open field arable operations.
In order to ensure adjacent passes are perfectly level, the EL 402 R is equipped with rollers which are wider than the maximum tilling width. This creates an exceptionally clean finish with no ridges between passes. The rotor and rollers are also offset to ensure a clean and level finish down the machine’s centre line.
As with all Kuhn machines, the EL 402 R has been designed to be as reliable as possible: reinforced drive shafts, cut-out clutches, metal seal faces, reinforced rotors and cast-iron gearboxes with built-in oil circulation, all maximise the machine’s ability to cope with heavy workloads.
The EL 402 R is also equipped with Kuhn’s intelligent monitoring system which relays torque and oil temperature data back to the tractor cab so that the operator can closely scrutinise the machine’s operating parameters.
A folded width of just 3m, plus the inclusion of a transport wheel, make the EL402R easy to manoeuvre from field to field with minimal fuss and inconvenience.
The EL402R retails at £48,950 (correct at September 2016).
