2017 Maschio Gaspardo TORO RAPIDO PLUS 6000

The market demand for increasingly high performance equipment but at the same time versatile and reliable led the Maschio Gaspardo R&D team to revise the HD power harrows range. The main changes have affected the structure of the rotors and transmission groups. Larger sections and always more resistant and reliable bearings allow to increase the loading power of up to 20%.

QUICKFIT tine system allows the user to replace tines quickly with one turn of the QUICKFIT tool, this minimises downtime and increases safety.

The reinforced double-layered gear trough (6 + 5 mm thick) made of high tensile steel gives enhanced reliability to the power harrow's transmission. The dual-layered trough works as a shield against rocks and allows the placement of deflectors protecting shafts.

Power harrow can be easily coupled with a seeding bar either with packer or rubber rollers.

The ON-GRIP tines are ideal for working in hard uncultivated soils with crop residues. Due to the shape of the blades you get excellent mixing of soil, it also leaves a large proportion of the large course soil on the surface preventing the top layer of soil creating a water tight crust.

The frame of new folding power harrows has been improved to be more resistant to heavy and continuative stresses. Hydraulic cylinders have an auto balancing system to control the depth of the rear roller and make sure it always runs level.

25 cm spacing among the rotors gives Maschio Power Harrows more rotors than many other power harrows on the market today, it also lowers the horsepower requirement and most importantly leaves a finer seed bed.

Our Heavy Duty folding harrows are equipped with a cooling fan in the side gearboxes. Thanks to hardened gears, synthetic oil and the cooling system, the gearboxes achieve excellent performance even under the hardest working conditions of prolonged high temperatures.

QUICKPLUS is a bolt on shield system. Assembling deflectors among the rotors-gear trough clearance, those prevents: stones, twines and debris colliding and wrapping on the rotors shafts. Remove deflectors is quick and easy to operate in no-stony conditions improving soil and residues flow.

Each bearing has a double rail consisting of two rows of spherical or barrel bearings to cope with heavy workloads. Main Advantages: long Life (Up to 30% longer than traditional tapered roller bearings), high load capacity, easy maintenance (no preloading needed).

Main gearbox is critically important to the machine, so it is made directly by Maschio Gaspardo to ensure consistency, strength and quality. Spare gears are available on machines to change rotation speed of tines.

The special design of seals, made of rubber and cellular polyurethane guarantees a perfect sealing and long durability.

Maschios basic rotor design is replicated throughout the range: tine shaft are made from a single casting of pressed steel. This confers rotors higher precision and durability comparing to alternative manufacturing.

Double skin structure (internal shell 6 mm, external 5 mm) increases strength, prevents torsion and protects the workings from damage.
