The Model 2215/2217 Weatherproofer I

Design and Purpose:

The Model 2215 Weatherproofer is a primary tillage tool designed to disc and deep-till in one pass, eliminating the need to disc or chop stalks first. With double offset tandem disc gangs and heavy duty 37" parabolic shanks, the Weatherproofer uniformly mixes residue while slotting through the compaction zone for greatly enhanced soil water storage capacity and root growth. The 2215 is engineered for deeper tillage without the need for prohibitive horsepower requirements.

The combination of the uniquely designed parabolic shanks and double offset tandem disc gangs makes the Weatherproofer possibly the most effective tool on the market for total soil, water, and residue management.

The strength and the design of the 37" parabolic shank accomplishes two things: 1) It creates a slot through the compaction zone whereby some of the compacted layers remain in tact, allowing water to store below the layers and roots to thrive by seeking the stored moisture through the slots during dry stress periods. 2) Due to the unique parabolic design of the shank, horsepower requirements are less than most competitive disc/deep-till models which use straighter shanks.

The Weatherproofer is offered in a broad spectrum of sizes including two frame sizes, two different shank spacings, and a number of shanks ranging from 3 to 9 shanks. No competitor offers this versatility of sizes meet farmers horsepower requirements.
