RM80 Trailing Offset Disc Cultivators
Gibbins Rawling have been making ploughs since 1878 - over 100 years of experience! The RM 80
offset disc cultivating plough is designed for extremely tough Australian conditions. It is similar to the
RM75 with the main difference being in the greater number of bearings and shorter axles in the disc
gang assemblies. It is an ideal disc for both primary and secondary tillage on 75 H.P. to 165 H.P.
tractors. The gang bolt axles are made from 40mm square high tensile steel and all bearings are
greaseable. Fitted with 610mm x 5mm (24” x 3/16”), 610mm x 6mm (24” x ¼”) or 660 x 6mm (26” x ¼”)
scalloped discs. Single pressure screw can be adjusted to transfer weight to the rear of the cultivator,
resulting in even disc penetration. Easy gang adjustment provides a perfect level finish. Hydraulic ram
and hoses for wheel lift are standard. Fully adjustable drawbar and pronged scrapers are standard on the
RM80 with options of formed scrapers for heavy soils.
