Description
The FRD is a versatile machine suitable for front and rear tractor mounting. The headstock is taken from the well-known and proven power harrow design. The sliding tube is integrated into the headstock; all forces and stress are concentrated on the 3-point linkage. The FRD is fitted as standard with a hydraulic-operated offset facility of 52cm. A central gearbox rated up to 160 hp with the double integrated freewheel is standard. The PTO tractor input can be 540 or 1000rpm, achieved by inverting the belt pulleys. Five V-belts combined with an automatic belt tensioner ensure smooth transmission, preventing slippage even in the toughest working conditions. No maintenance is required.
