Joker HD

Strengths of the Joker

  • Produces high quantities of fine soil within the germination zone
  • Efficient consolidation due to the double RollPack packer with high load-bearing capacity and excellent levelling effect for strip-consolidation
  • Less susceptible to failure in case of long harvest residues and shallow cultivation. Highest clearance and enough room between the disc rows and the packer.
  • Improved operational results with increased speed
  • Precise depth control due to front support wheels and double packer
  • High working performance with little draft requirement
  • High working speed in general
  • Good penetration with aggressive, serrated discs and maximum machine weight
  • Large transport chassis for fast and safe road transport

In which working conditions does the Joker perform well?

  • Shallow and fast stubble cultivation for quick germination of lost grain, interrupting capillary and ensuring incorporation of straw
  • From shallow and fast stubble cultivation after cereals to a 15-cm-deep cultivation after grain maize
  • Incorporation of long straw and difficult residues (cover crops, corn stubble)
  • Smooth incorporation of organic fertilisers (manure, cover crops)

The Joker prepares a fine and consolidated seed bed with good conditions for germination

Large packer for working without cloggings

A strong DiscSystem ensures best
mixing and levelling results

Maximum clearance between the disc rows and the packer

Joker HD incorporating liquid manure with the optional Vogelsang kit

Stable double RollPack packer for all types of soil

High operational reliability due to the large spacing between the DiscSystem rows and the packer

Transport position with revolver chassis for safe road transport

Always a trump card in your hand

  • From shallow stubble cultivation after cereals to a 15-cm-deep cultivation after grain maize
  • Vertically arranged discs for very intensive mixing
  • Extremely resistant to cloggings due to the discs that are arranged in pairs and thus allow for large clearance
  • Compact design
  • Double packer with high load-bearing capacity and excellent levelling effect

DiscSystem - Innovative and reliable

Your advantages include

  • High clearance because of mounting the discs in pairs
  • Good contour-following qualities and effective stonerelease system with maintenance-free rubber suspension
  • Long intervals of exchanging parts
  • Maintenance-free and low-wear disc bearings with permanent lubrication
  • Surface-hardened discs for minimum wear in hardest conditions
  • Good penetration into the soil with aggressive, serrated discs and maximum machine weight
  • Excellent crumbling of the soil due to fast turning discs with a diameter of 62 cm
  • Stable disc angle through wide disc mountings, with no side play.

Enough clearance between the two disc rows

Mounting in pairs increases the clearance

Large and robust bearing – shaft diameter of 35 mm with maintenance-free oil-bath bearing

Large rubber suspension ensures good contour-following qualities, stable disc angle and low wear and tear

Spade discs at the outer end ensure
level conditions between passes

Easy setting of working depth with AluClip spacers
