At 16-km/h (10-mph) working speeds, the 2330 Mulch Finisher can cover up to 27.5 ha (68 acres) per hour enabling producers to size their implements for their unique productivity and agronomic needs.

The 2330 is available in sizes ranging from 6.6 to 17.2 m (21 ft, 9 in. to 56 ft, 3 in.). Horsepower requirements range from 24.5 to 34.2 kW/m (10 to 14 hp-ft), depending on the soil, depth, and speed.

THREE-SECTION CONFIGURATIONS

NOTE: Specification and design subject to change without notice.

The Level-Lift hitch ensures a level operation through all operating depths. It also provides consistent gang and sweep depth fore to aft for thorough seedbed preparation. This quick, easy adjustment ensures a flat seedbed floor and level soil profile for planting.

The combination of the disk gang, sweep, and harrow functions promotes consistent and uniform chemical placement and mixing. The T-hitch enables easy turnbuckle adjustment for fast tractor changeover and quick implement leveling fore to aft.

The heavy-duty T-hitch allows for tighter turning, decreasing the number of headlands required for quick turns on the end. The T-hitch also houses the hoses and wiring harness, protecting them from crop and incidental tire contact.

The producer can work ground faster with the 508-mm x 5-mm (20-in. x 0.197-in.) low-concavity disk blades and outside blades tapered to 457 mm (18 in.) on the 2330 Mulch Finisher"

• Allows aggressive cutting action
• Minimizes ridging

Blades are spaced 184-mm (7.25-in.) apart and are fixed at an 8-degree gang angle:

• Results in effective slicing in heavy residue
• Moves the soil inward toward the center of the implement for a level seedbed

C-spring cushion gangs help protect against rocks and other obstructions in the field. Dura-Flex™ (3+1) bearings are standard equipment:

• Triple lip on the inner race and a wide seal between the outer race and flange prevents soil from entering between the bearings and flanges, and helps retain lubrication in the bearings
• Greaseable for long life

All disk gangs feature combination rigid/self-adjusting scrapers as standard equipment:

• Prevent soil buildup on inside of disk blades
• Adjustable to compensate for wear
• Self-adjusting operation—the spring tension helps hold the scrapers against the disk blade in sticky soil conditions

Engaged disk gangs add to the stability of the implement at higher ground speeds for consistent working depth in uneven ground.

• Allow for good weed kill and tilling
• Provide excellent chemical incorporation

Thanks to an updated frame design that enables true 229-mm (9-in.) split-the-middle shank spacing, the 2330 Mulch Finishers can maintain consistent depth and evenly cover the field to achieve an optimal seedbed while flowing residue and managing weeds.

SEEDBED PREPARATION

Even at high speeds and in tough field conditions, the TruPosition™ C-shanks with 91 kg (200 lb) of trip force minimize side-to-side movement and provide the operator better control of the soil profile for improved leveling capabilities.

These shanks provide a full tillage cut across the entire width of the implement. The shanks stay firmly planted in tough soils without quickly relieving. As a result, the soil is mixed completely and streaks are reduced. This helps producers maximize their productivity and create flat seedbeds for smooth planter operation and consistent seed depth.

WEED MANAGEMENT

The even 229-mm (9-in.) split-the-middle shank spacing enables the 2330 Mulch Finisher to minimize the potential of remaining strips of weeds that survive the tillage pass. With a mulch finisher pass just prior to planting/seeding, the crop can emerge into a weed-free field that gives it the best chance to reach canopy ahead of the weeds.

If some weeds emerge and a post-emergence herbicide is needed, weeds should be smaller and easier to control. As a result, the mulch finisher pass helps keep weed management costs under control and helps preserve crop yield potential.
