2.2. Purpose of the SPEC HD cultivator
The SPEC HD cultivator is an all-purpose machine for shallow ploughing or used instead
of ploughing for:
•
shallow stubble cultivation (up to 15 cm) to mix post-harvest residues, stop soil
water evaporation,
•
increase the growth of weeds and self-seeding plants, and reduce ploughing
resistance, or deep
•
cultivation,
•
deep cultivation (up to 35 cm) to loosen cultivated soil, mix mineral and organic
fertilizers, and prevent
•
mineralisation of humus in the ploughing soil.
The application of right and left side shields improves the degree of stubble mixing. As a
result, the concentration of phenol compounds affecting the growth of crops in the
following year is reduced. The application of the SPEC HD cultivator for deep cultivation
eliminates the need of ploughing, and as such, this allows cost reduction, eliminates the
risk of excessively compacted soil, and helps to complete farming work on time.
NOTE! The cultivator is designed exclusively for agricultural use. Use for any
other purpose will be construed as misuse and will void the warranty. Failure
to comply with the recommendations in these operating instructions will also
be construed as misuse.
NOTE! The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting from the
operation of the machine not in accordance with its intended use.
