IMPLEMENTS Single-share plough, can plough over a hectare per day. Single-share plough. Plough can be raised and lowered to adjust depth and facilitate travel to and from the field of work. Plough is turnaround type and one walks behind the tractor (the steal wheels are advisable for ploughing).
Powered disc plough is a unique item of equipment and is driven directly from the tractor gearbox. Perfect for use in lighter sandy soils. This plough has a third wheel and seat and can thus be used in ride-on or walk-behind functions. Three discs rotate at approximately 100 r/min angled at 15º off the centre line of the tractor. Tilling can be carried out at a brisk 10 km/h. Plough to a depth of 210 mm. The final effect is an even, billiard-table finish. Ideal for preparation prior to planting or for tilling in between vines or orchard trees.

Diamond harrow, has 20 tines and attaches to the tool bar. It is a well-known, tried and tested implement used throughout Africa. Working width of 900 mm.
Cultivator, has 5 S-tines and attaches to the tool bar. It is a used for weeding in between crops. Working width of 900 mm.
Rotovator, has a third wheel and seat and can thus be used in ride-on or walk-behind functions. Rotovation depths of up to 220 mm. Rotovation width of up to 600 mm. Speeds for rotovation from 1 to 12 km/h. Two types of tine: 'chisel' for stony soils and the curved tine for more freshly turned soil. Ideal for use in preparing seedbeds, especially in tunnels, or weeding between crops and in horse lunge arenas.
The 6-row planter Plants 1 - 6 rows over a total width of 1,2 m. Designed specifically for rice and wheat, but is equally effective at dispensing other small to medium-sized seed. Effective for sowing grass seed. Has a 48 x 100 mm tine rotovator for "fluffing up" the soil. Drills can plant seed to a depth of up to 60 mm. Lightweight roller seals the seedbed without compacting.
Slasher mower Twin bladed and can be used for cutting veld grass or for lawns and fairways. Extremely effective for cutting firebreaks, which presents good opportunities for entrepreneurs. It is both robust and powerful. 1,2 m width and the cut height can be varied from scarifying to 80 mm.
Harvester Specifically for cutting dry grasses such as wheat and rice. Sickle bar of 1,3 m. Cuts to a minimum stubble height of 60 cm. Forms windrows, which makes it ideal for harvesting grain crops such as wheat, barley and rice. Front mounted. Practical operating speed of 5 km/h.
Irrigation Irrigation pumps with capacities of 22m3/h at 40 m head and 30m3/h at 45 m head are available. They can be used in stationary or tractor-mounted applications. The great advantage of having a tractor-mounted pump is that it can be driven back to a secure facility after use. Pumps are equipped with recessed impeller and mechanical seal. Spray cannon and tripods are also shown above.
