2024 Great Plains VT1110 Turbo-Max® VT1110-20

2024 Great Plains VT1110 Turbo-Max® VT1110-20

Configured for ease of transport and narrow spaces, the new VT1110 Turbo-Max boasts a large working width, yet folds to under 12'. The new VT1110 is available in 20' and 25' models and offers the same true vertical tillage benefits as the standard VT1100 Turbo-Max.

With a choice of blades and finishing attachments, the VT1110 can be customized for optimal performance in both spring and fall. On-the-go hydraulic gangs adjust from 0° to 6° for in-cab control as conditions change.

Features may include:

• With Turbo blades spaced 7½" apart, the Turbo-Max provides true vertical cutting without the shearing caused by concave blades. Offset front and rear gangs achieve an effective residue cutting width of 3¾" when running at 0°.

• Double baskets achieve the greatest leveling and finishing results, and are the best option for soils that are heavier or have a high moisture content. The single baskets are the most economical solution and are well-suited for lighter soil textures and field conditions. Active hydraulic down pressure is standard on both. Both are also available with a choice of flat or round bars to best match field conditions and soil types. Flat bars are more aggressive and are the best option for clay soils. Round bars are the preferred option in rocky conditions.

• Standard 20" Turbo blades are the best choice for soil with a medium to heavy texture or rockier areas where blade breakage is a concern.

• One of the most unique features of the original Turbo-Max was its ability to angle the gangs from 0° to 6°. This popular feature is also key to the new VT1110 Turbo-Max. All models are equipped with hydraulic cylinders to make gang angle changes on-the-go. Heavy, ductile cast spools keep weight in the gangs, ensuring reliability of the C-shanks and bearings.

• Rolling spike harrows finish the work of the coulters to create a level seedbed. They are the attachment of choice for most applications. Chopper reels are the best solution for tough residue situations and help prevent viney residue from wrapping and plugging. They are designed to pin and bury residue, rather than rolling it back to the surface. Both are positioned between the blades and the finishing attachment.
