Brent Vande Goor continues his walkaround series this spring with the HORSCH Terrano 5.4GX
The Terrano GX is an all-rounder that works perfectly for shallow as well as for deep cultivation up to 25 cm.
The Terrano GX is available as a 3- and 4-bar universal cultivator and thus combines the requirements of every customer. The working widths range from 4 to 6 m. It is equipped with the TerraGrip tine of the third generation that is placed flatly in the frame and has a release force of 550 kg. The large pivot points guarantee a long and maintenance-free service life. The cultivator can be equipped with a lot of coulter versions so that it can be used in any season and in the most different soil conditions all over the world.
The chassis of the Terrano GX is located behind the tine section, in front of the levelling tools. The chassis with large tyres is used for road transport as well as for turning on the headlands. The sophisticated design characteristics of the chassis guarantees high ground clearance when lifted as well as a save swivelling of the tyres out of the working range when lowered. The position of the chassis has been chosen to guarantee optimum manoeuvrability in the field and high driving comfort on the road.
To make optimum use of the tractive output and get the existing power into the soil, the Terrano GX is equipped with a traction reinforcement that permanently applies a pressure of 1 200 kg on the rear axle of the tractor. If the traction reinforcement is not required, if you want to work more shallowly, it can be switched off anytime via a lock valve. It is activated by simply depressurising the control device for lifting and lowering without any additional control devices or cylinders.
With regard to levelling you can choose between the discs with oil-bath bearing that aggressively distribute the material in front of the packer and the levellers that spread the material and thus guarantee perfect levelling.
The Terrano GX can be equipped with a single packer or with a double packer. New packer versions have been developed that cover any range of use. For working in wet conditions or to cultivate the winter furrow, it is possible to dismantle every second ring of the RingFlex packer. The low contact area prevents consolidation and a clogging of the packer and controls the depth of the machine.
The packer range for the Terrano GX has been extended. The RingFlex packer, the SteelDisc packer, the cage drum roller and the new OptiRoll packer are available as single packers. The available double packer versions are the new SteelFlex packer, the double RingFlex packer and the double RollPack packer.
