THE PROCESS
The ScanStone 4 Body Wing-Folding bed maker has been purpose built for fitment to the ScanStone 3.6m bed tiller range. The Wing-Folding has a lighter frame, although still strong, and reduces the overall weight of the bed tiller / bed maker combination while still offering the customer a competitive end product.
The 4 body Wing-Folding is versatile; it can be unhitched from the bed tiller and used for regular bed making directly behind the tractor, it is not recommended to use this machine on tractors over 200hp. Short ends and gushets can be ploughed with this machine as well by folding the wings up and simply bed making with 2 ploughs. While using with application on the bed tiller, the ploughs can also have the wings folded up when the direct tilling method is used in conjunction with GPS. There are fewer options available on the Wing-Folding and the machine is limited to 200hp, however the price and overall weight reflects this.
The ScanStone AR+ models negate the need for additional shearbolt protection. This auto reset system has a double pivot point allowing the beam to pivot and also the body to pivot as the plough strikes a stone or tree root. There is enough stroke in the hydraulic cylinder for the plough to reset in both instances and enough pressure in the accumulator for the plough to reset back to the preset depth.
