How does a tiller work? What is the difference between a separation tiller and a regular tiller?
A tiller is a machine which, when connected to a tractor, is designed to mechanically dig, crumble and loosen the ground. Thanks to the operation of the tiller , we can remove the old turf of the lawn, dig the soil, remove weeds, level the ground while preparing for a new lawn or vegetable crops.
Thanks to the knives mounted on the rotating shaft, fragments of the soil are cut out and crushed. The knives on the SB separating tiller rotate in the opposite direction to the direction of travel of the tractor. A very important element in the construction of the tiller are the rods that separate the stones. The direction of rotation of the knives causes the soil to be sifted through this system of rods, which act as a sieve, separating the larger elements from the fine ones. The entire coarser fraction, such as stones, sticks, roots, larger lumps of earth land on the first lower layer of soil and are covered by the fragmented, properly prepared substrate.
Thanks to the rear roller of the separation tiller , we regulate the working depth of the machine and at the same time we get a leveled and compacted ground ready for further cultivation. This is a big advantage of the separation tiller and this is how it differs from a regular tiller.
The main use of the separation roller is to help when setting up lawns, it is also an ideal tool for leveling previously disturbed soil.
What else distinguishes the SB separating tiller?
This machine has the possibility of minimal side shift , thanks to which we can further specify the positioning of the machine behind the tractor. In the case of tillers , a drive chain is used, which requires the use of a PTO shaft with protection, i.e. a breakaway wedge or clutch to protect the tractor and machine gears.
The SB 165 4FARMER separation tiller is simple in construction and solidly made. The hinged flap function makes it easier to keep the machine clean and provides better access to the main shaft of the knife axis.
There are two shock-absorbing elements above the hinged hatch on both sides of the machine. When a larger stone or clod of earth gets under the teeth, these elements will protect the top surface of the tiller against the impact of the floating moving part of the machine.
If you are looking for a unit that combines all the elements that allow you to prepare the soil for sowing, the separation tiller will definitely be the product for you!
