Optional extras at additional cost:

- Packer roller (available on request)

The press roller is an optional component of the rotary tiller which plays a key role in consolidating and levelling the soil after it has been loosened. Its main function is to improve the structure of the ground by breaking up larger clods of earth and increasing the soil's ability to retain moisture. Thanks to its use an even and uniform surface is obtained, which promotes better germination of the plants and increases the effectiveness of the next agrotechnical operations.

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

The press roller combined with a catch crop seed drill makes it possible to level the soil and sow catch crops at the same time during a single pass of the machine. Such a solution significantly increases the efficiency of cultivation and saves working time. Catch crops improve the structure of the soil, enrich it with organic matter and limit erosion processes, which has a positive effect on its fertility and on its preparation for the following growing seasons.

- Depth wheels (available on request)

Contour-following wheels are additional equipment for the rotary tiller which is responsible for the precise guidance of the machine and for keeping the working depth constant. They prevent the blades from penetrating the soil too deeply, which provides even loosening and a better match of the work to the ground conditions. Particularly useful on uneven surfaces, where matching the work of the machine to the shape of the ground is crucial for obtaining optimum results.

Detailed description:

• The Virgo rotary tiller with a working width of 1600 mm is a modern agricultural machine intended for effective loosening, levelling and mixing of the soil without inverting it, which creates optimal conditions for plant growth.
• Thanks to its solid build and the use of high-quality materials, the implement offers reliability and a long service life, which makes it an ideal solution both for farms and for vegetable and orchard plantations, where precise working of the soil plays a key role.
• The machine copes excellently with breaking up compacted soil clods, eliminating rhizomatous weeds and mixing mineral fertilisers evenly into the soil, which has a positive effect on soil structure, improves its moisture retention and increases the availability of nutrients to plants.
• The compact yet strong construction of the rotary tiller means it weighs 370 kg and requires a tractor with an output of 35 kW (48 HP), which makes it a suitable choice for smaller and medium-sized holdings alike.
• The machine has been equipped with 42 blades arranged on 7 rotors with a spacing of 225 mm, which guarantees high working efficiency and thorough loosening of the soil.
• The blades are seated on special rotor discs, which gives them a stable fixing and minimises the risk of the machine clogging when working in more difficult soil conditions, such as damp or compacted ground.
• The adjustable working depth of up to 120 mm allows the tillage intensity to be matched to the specific requirements of the crops and to the prevailing soil conditions.
• Depth control takes place by means of side skids, which stabilise the work of the machine, guaranteeing even guidance even on uneven ground.
• The rotational speed of the blade shaft is 265 rpm, which ensures precise and efficient loosening of the soil and its preparation for the subsequent stages of cultivation.
• The Virgo rotary tiller has been fitted with a hinged rear guard that makes it possible to adjust the degree of soil crumbling.
• Raising the guard allows the soil to be left in larger clods, whereas lowering it makes the particles strike the guard, which further increases the intensity of the crumbling.
• The adjustable rear guard also performs a protective function, preventing stones and pieces of soil from being thrown out, which increases safety during work.
• The standard equipment of the machine includes a telescopic PTO drive shaft, which ensures smooth power transmission from the tractor while protecting the drive train against excessive load.
• In addition, the telescopic PTO drive shaft has been fitted with an overload clutch, which protects the gearbox against damage in the event of a sudden increase in resistance during work.
• Optionally the Virgo rotary tiller can be fitted with additional elements that increase its functionality, such as a packer roller which improves soil consolidation after loosening, or a catch crop seeder allowing seeds to be sown at the same time as the machine works.
• Its modern construction, versatility and high output make the Virgo rotary tiller an excellent solution for farmers, fruit growers and gardeners looking for a dependable, durable machine for soil cultivation.
• Its solid build, the possibility of adjusting the working depth and a wide choice of optional accessories mean that it will meet the expectations of even the most demanding users.
