WWW.POTATOGROWER.COM 29 www.brillionfarmeq.com The Heavy-Weight in Pulvi-Mulchers Gets BIGGER. The 3600 Series Pulvi-Mulcher from Brillion features wider working widths, increased trash clearance and reduced downtime in the field. The series is available in 21', 25', 30' and 36'6" working widths. The 30' model weighs 80% more than the popular WL360 for more clod crushing power. The 36'6" unit is the widest Pulvi-Mulcher ever offered by Brillion. All 3600 Series models feature 8" roller axles with heavy-duty bearings that improve reliability and reduce maintenance interruptions in the field. The design includes three rows of two-piece edge bent s-tines on overall 6" spacing. 25" of under frame clearance improves trash flow through the machine. A leveling device in front of the rear roller helps level ridges left by the shanks. A choice of 20" Notched, 20" Crowfoot or 20" Optimizer ® Ductile Iron Pulverizer wheels allows each 3600 Pulvi-Mulcher to be customized to varying soil conditions. And new to this series is the 24" Notched Ductile Iron wheel to provide even more clod crushing power with its heavy weight.

Parma Company • (208) 722-5116 • www.parmacompany.com Parma High-Speed Disc The High-Speed Disc is specifically designed to enable various results of primary tillage disking. Front 600/50-22.5 flotation tires in combination with the rear roller provide precise depth control for high-speed/shallow or slower-speed/deep disking. Front and rear rows of individual, 24-inch notched disc blades spaced at 10 inches are independently mounted on maintenance-free disc hub bearings and torsion spring-cushioned shanks. The distinct working action of each disc helps maintain a thorough and even disking result across the working width at the selected speeds. The separately controlled rear transport axle with 15-inch tires and the front tongue create a unique dual-action float or raise mechanism for complete lifting control at all times. Parma's High-Speed Disc is presently available in rigid widths of 14 to 21 feet and a wide variety of rear roller configurations including Crowfoot, packer rings, welded basket or pipe roller. Horsepower requirements for optimum high-speed performance are 15 to 20 horsepower per foot.
