P.A. Bristow & Co. - Multi-Tooth Tiller Roll products

Farmer`s needs are changing, new techniques are required in order to save costs and as importantly protect and care for the soil structure. The Subsoiler One Pass System is well tried and tested for low cost establishment, but at present the condition the rape is sown under are a long way from ideal especially in wet and very dry conditions. In most cases the roll or press rings behind the subsoiler do very little to fill the open slot that is made with the subsoil leg, therefore, the ground is not evenly consolidated to ensure the transmitting of water, air and nutrients essential for promoting plant growth. The open slot allows seed to be placed too deep and any seeds attached to the sides of the slot can dry out and die or the root development will be greatly impaired, also, the open spaces promote slug movement.

We are pround to annouce that our New Split Level Subsoiler is ready for sale. Yet again taking implement design even further with this new ground breaking design. Strong and effective construction incorporating front leading tines working at a shallow level separating a layer of top soil for the tiller roll to mix and cultivate leaving a desired depth of tilled soil to place the rape seed. We have designed the Swing Lift Leg to swing back within its working depth, which differs considerably to the known shear bolt legs, which in most cases when the shear bolt breaks the point of the leg travels deeper before they swing back. In the case of the Swing Lift Leg it lifts and swings back within its working depth saving the point from breaking or lifting the machine.
