| Residue Management |
Soil Tilth |
Residue Manager (optional) wheels  position
stalks laterally, ahead of the coulters for positive cutting.
Coulter Module features 25" diameter coulters
on 9" spacing for improved residue sizing. "Live"
hydraulic system seeks coulter depth that provides optimal
cutting resistance. |
"Split the Middle" shank pattern
is achieved with two ranks of  shanks
on 18" spacing. This provides maximum soil fracture and
non-stop operation in heavy residue with no shank closer than
36" on the same beam. Shank configuration options include;
all Parabolic Deep Till, Combination Deep Till and Heavy-Duty
Chisel Shanks or all Chisel Shanks. |

| Seed Bed Conditioners |
 Disc
Conditioner System is hydraulically adjustable and features
24" smooth front disc blades on 18" spacing for
cutting clods and initial leveling. 24" fluted rear disc
blades on 12" spacing reduce clod size and leave a level
field finish. Reversed Rock-Flex disc mounts shed residue
for non-stop performance. Patent Pending 24/7™ Dual
Range Conditioner provides final clod sizing and firming
with the exclusive ability to select a range of constant down
pressure or "float" position to extend the weather/tillage
window. |

| Live Hydraulic Coulter Pressure |
Tractor Interface Center |
"Live" hydraulic coulter down pressure
adjusts  easily
up to 1000 lbs. with a convenient front mounted valve. Pressure
gauge is visible from the tractor cab. This system automatically
positions coulters at the optimum depth for positive residue
cutting in varying field conditions. |
Krause's new Tractor Interface Center
prevents  hydraulic
hoses from binding in turns and adds operator convenience
by swinging out of the way when hitching to the tractor. Storage
for owners manual, hydraulic hoses and light hookup are also
included. Hose routing chart and color coded hose grips are
another time saving feature. |

| Shanks and Points |
Depth Indicators |
Parabolic Deep Till shanks feature a
new lower draft design and 3000 lb. point load. The spring
reset features a generous 22" obstacle trip height. Heavy
crop residue clears easily with 39" of underframe clearance.
An optional  shear-bolt
version is also available.
Heavy-Duty Chisel Shanks are 1 1/4" thick with
a 3" profile and accept the 7" winged points to
manage compaction by "splitting the middles" of
the deep till shanks.
Dominator 7" Winged Points feature a proven design
with downward and rearward swept wings to create a lifting
and twisting action that relocates compacted soil layers.
Krause shanks also accept other popular points like JD LaserRip
™ and DMI Tiger® Points for the ultimate
in customer convenience. |
 Positive
Depth indicators allow easy visibility from the tractor
cab to determine shank and disc conditioner depth for accurate
"on-the-go" adjustment and optimum performance.
