Preparing for spring drilling

Prepare the soil quickly, cost-effectively and professionally with the GÜTTLER Super Maxx®. The field dries out faster, so sowing can start earlier.

For the farming of the future

The GÜTTLER Super Maxx® BIO spring-tine cultivator is available as a three-point mounted implement in working widths of 2.85–8.95 m, and as a trailed version with transport wheels up to 12 m. The double spring tines, at a tine spacing of just 13 cm, vibrate more strongly than single spring tines and create the aggregate structure we need for successful arable farming. A harrow levels the field and pulls weed roots up to the surface to dry out – a packer roller would press them back into the soil so that they could keep on growing.

Light, robust and powerful

With the Super Maxx® BIO, the soil dries out faster and becomes as finely crumbled as we need it for sowing spring crops. Organic fertiliser and chopped catch crop residues are mixed in very well. Several passes create a false seedbed and control emerged weeds mechanically.

The GÜTTLER Super Maxx® 70-7 BIO, a 7-row spring-tine cultivator with a working width of 7.10 m, lets the soil dry out faster, mixes in residues and creates an ideal seedbed for spring drilling.
