The hoeing machine in rear attachment version is equipped with an automatic top-steering. The steering wheels are guided by a mechanical connection with a high wheel-flange towards the slope. The hoe always runs right behind the tractor even at curvy operation. For slopes over 6%, this guidance system can additionally be equipped with hydraulic pre-steering.
At front machines, the retraction-adjustable parallelograms are pushed, this way a short construction of the hoe is reached. The parallelogram guided hoe elements are depth-guided by a Farm-Flex wheel accurately. Greaseable and stable linkages on the spring- loaded parallelograms, which can be adjusted subsequently, guarantee a long product life. The shares are adjustable in height and position, also suitable in deeper work position. The crop deflector plates can hang in different heights; therefore, you can reach an optimal heap through the correct tine position.
Fingerweeder
The fingerweeder was designed to work in the row (the sensitive line, approx. 8-14 cm) and to reduce or eliminate weeds there. The fingers are made of a synthetic material which protect the deep rooting crop and harms the weed. The fingerweeder can perfect work in combination with trailed duckfoot-hoes. No matter if corn, soybean, pumpkin or potatoes – in nearly every row crop the fingerweeder does a terrific job in the row.
The CHOPSTAR 1-30 has 1 tine per hoeing section and is suited for row crop with a row distance of up to 30 cm. like e.g. grain, beans, etc. These cultivators are mainly used in medium to heavy soil. On the hoeing-sections weeder tines can be mounted additionally.
CHOPSTAR 3-60
The CHOPSTAR 3-60 has 3 tines per hoeing section and is suited for row crop with a row distance of up to 60 cm. like e.g. beets, soya, etc. These cultivators are mainly used in medium to heavy soil. On the hoeing-sections weeder tines can be mounted additionally. On the hoeing-sections a lot of different options like hilling elements, hilling sweeps, weeder tines, finger-hoes, etc. can be mounted.
CHOPSTAR 5-90
The CHOPSTAR 5-90 has 5 tines per hoeing section and is suited for row crop with a row distance of up to 90 cm. like e.g. corn sunflower, etc. These cultivators are mainly used in medium to heavy soil. On the hoeing-sections weeder tines can be mounted additionally. On the hoeing-sections a lot of different options like hilling elements, hilling sweeps, weeder tines, finger-hoes, etc. can be mounted.
CHOPSTAR 10-150
The CHOPSTAR 10-150 has up to 10 tines per hoeing section and is suited for row crop with a row distance of up to 150 cm. like e.g. pumpkin etc. These cultivators are mainly used in medium to heavy soil. On the hoeing-sections weeder tines can be mounted additionally. On the hoeing-sections a lot of different options like hilling elements, hilling sweeps, weeder tines, finger-hoes, etc. can be mounted.
CHOPSTAR-HYBRID
CHOPSTAR-HYBRID
The CHOPSTAR-HYBRID inter-row crop cultivator with horizontal discs is the perfect solution for hoeing in mulch-till. Based on the proven CHOPSTAR hoeing frame there are at discs mounted to the hoeing section that can rotate freely. The diameter is adapted to the desired row spacing. These discs cut through the soil just below the surface. They harm the roots of the weeds respectively hoe the weed just below the soil surface and below the mulch layer. High-gauge wheels are mounted in front of the discs. They cut the soil and the mulch layer vertically to guarantee a smooth operation without any clogging.
CHOPSTAR-TWIN
The CHOPSTAR-TWIN was developed for hoeing exactly above the row. The hoeing parallelogram does not operate in the classic way in between the rows but directly above the row. The result is a very narrow hoeing strip and the hoeing can be done at a very early stage of the crop growth and very narrow to the crop. The hoeing element consists of two vertical cutting discs that are adjustable in angle and distance, and two angle knives following the discs. Two Farmflex wheels running close to the crop row allow a very exact adjusting of the working depth. The CHOPSTAR-TWIN is suited for special crops, grain, soybean, vegetables, etc.
