Optional extras at additional cost:

- Packer roller (available on request)

The press roller is optional equipment for the rotary tiller which is responsible for consolidating and levelling the soil after it has been loosened. Its main purpose is to improve the structure of the soil by breaking up larger clods and increasing the ground's ability to retain moisture. Thanks to its use the surface of the soil becomes more uniform, which promotes better germination of the plants and improves the effectiveness of the next tillage operations.

- Press roller with catch crop seeder (available on request)

The press roller integrated with a catch crop seed drill makes it possible to consolidate the soil and sow catch crops at the same time during a single pass of the machine. Such a solution saves time and increases the efficiency of cultivation. Catch crops play a key role in improving the structure of the soil, enrich it with organic components and limit erosion processes, which has a positive effect on its fertility.

- Depth wheels (available on request)

Contour-following wheels are an additional component of the rotary tiller which provides stability of operation and precise guidance of the machine across the field. Their task is to keep the working depth constant, which prevents the blades from penetrating too deeply and provides even loosening of the soil across the whole working width. They are particularly useful on uneven ground, where the work of the machine has to be matched to the shape of the field surface, which increases the accuracy and performance of cultivation.

Detailed description:

• The Virgo rotary tiller with a working width of 1400 mm is a modern agricultural machine intended for intensive loosening, levelling and mixing of the soil without inverting it, which provides optimal conditions for plant growth.
• A solid structure and high-quality materials make this a dependable implement, suited to work both on farms and in horticulture or vegetable growing, where precise soil working is of key importance.
• The rotary tiller effectively breaks up compacted soil clods, cuts through rhizomatous weeds and mixes mineral fertilisers evenly with the soil, which improves its structure, increases moisture retention and makes nutrients more available to plants.
• Thanks to its compact yet solid construction, the rotary tiller weighs 345 kg and requires a tractor with an output of 30 kW (41 HP), which makes it the ideal choice for holdings of varying size, allowing precise, efficient work even on smaller areas.
• The machine is equipped with 36 blades mounted on 6 rotors, spaced at 225 mm intervals, which allows thorough loosening of the soil and its even aeration.
• The knives are seated on special rotor discs, which allows them to be mounted stably and increases work efficiency while minimising the risk of the machine clogging when working on wet or heavy soil.
• The machine has an adjustable working depth of up to 120 mm, which allows the intensity of soil loosening to be matched to the specific requirements of the crop and to the soil conditions.
• The working depth is controlled by means of the side skids, which stabilise the machine and ensure even guidance even on uneven ground.
• A key parameter affecting the working efficiency of the unit is the rotational speed of the blade shaft, which is 265 rpm, guaranteeing precise and effective loosening of the soil and its preparation for the next stages of cultivation.
• The machine has been fitted with a hinged rear guard that allows the degree of soil crumbling to be regulated – raising it leaves the soil less finely broken up, while lowering the guard permits more intensive crushing of the soil, as the particles bounce off the surface of the guard.
• The adjustable rear guard also has a protective function, shielding the operator and the surroundings from accidentally thrown stones and pieces of soil, thereby increasing safety at work.
• The standard equipment of the machine includes an articulated telescopic shaft, which provides optimal transfer of power from the tractor while protecting the drive system against excessive load.
• The articulated telescopic shaft has additionally been fitted with an overload clutch, which protects the gearbox against damage resulting from sudden changes in resistance or from work in difficult soil conditions.
• As an option, the Virgo rotary tiller can be fitted with additional components that increase its functionality, such as a packer roller, which gives better soil consolidation after loosening, or a catch crop seeder that allows seed to be sown at the same time as the machine works.
• Thanks to its modern design, versatility and high output, the Virgo rotary tiller is a dependable solution for farmers, orchard growers and gardeners who are looking for a durable and effective machine for soil cultivation.
• Its solid construction, adjustable working depth and additional functions mean that this is a machine which will meet the requirements of both professional farms and smaller plantations.
