Introducing the TL 3000 |
|
TL 3000-7R |
The TL 3000 Disc Ripper from Krause takes primary
tillage to the next level. Built for and tested with today's
highest horsepower tractors, the TL 3000 provides single-pass
crop residue management, soil tilth improvement and fall
seed bed conditioning. Front disc gangs aggressively cut
and size residue, while the parabolic ripper shanks manage
compaction and improve soil tilth. Finally, the rear disc
gangs aggressively break clods while blending soil and residue
into a level fall seed bed that's ready for one-pass preparation
in the spring. |
Crop Residue Management
The TL 3000's front disc gangs feature 24" diameter
blades with a wide 13" spacing to aggressively cut and
size the toughest crop residues. Incorporation of residue
increases moisture infiltration into the soil profile and
aids in fighting compaction by providing separation of soil
particles. |

Soil
Tilth
Soil Tilth refers to the ratio of soil/water/air that make
up your soil. Ideally this mix would comprise 50% soil, 25%
water and 25% air. Compacted soils have less porosity, reducing
the amount of water the soil can store and move into the
plant's root system. The TL 3000's  parabolic
ripper shanks and specially designed 10" winged points
provide maximum fracture below the soil surface. Compacted
soil is relocated by the downward angle of the wings creating
a mellow soil environment with increased pore space. |

Fall Seed Bed Conditioning
An ideal seed bed condition is vital to maximizing crop yield
potential. Primary tillage with the TL 3000 is the first
step towards an ideal spring seed bed. The TL 3000's rear
disc gangs feature 24" diameter blades and narrower
11"
spacing for more aggressive clod sizing and a level field
finish. Rear disc gang features three angle adjustments;
10, 15 and 20 degrees to match varying soil and residue conditions.
Taper disc blades on the ends of the gangs ensure proper
feathering of soil to blend into the next pass. |
