The Model 2000 Row Crop Cultivator
Design and Purpose:
The 2000 Row Crop Cultivator is designed as a multi-purpose high speed, high residue cultivator and is used almost exclusively in the spring. With optional ridgers, it can be used as a ridge-till cultivator. The Model 2000 is also ideal for minimum-till or no-till conditions. It's primary purpose is to eliminate weeds, however, a secondary, but highly important function is to aerate the soil to stimulate crop growth.
A major attraction of the Landoll 2000 Row Crop Cultivator is the closely coupled frame which brings the center of gravity closer to the tractor. The Model 2000 is a favorite among farmers with smaller tractors that have problems lifting other machines. This feature gives the 2000 the advantage over virtually all other competitors.
Another distinctive advantage the Model 2000 has it's patented weeding disc adjustment. Adjustments are made only with detent pins and holes for positive depth width, and four fixed-angle pitch settings for aggressiveness. Competitors use clamps which may come loose or slip and requires exact measuring for a proper setting. Adjusting the Model 2000's weeding discs (or disc hillers) allows for greater precision and significantly less adjustment time.
The 2000 features wide parallel linkage with greaseable pivots that stretches the length of the gang mount, minimizing gang twisting.
