2024 Great Plains Vt1100 Turbo-Max® VT1100-30

2024 Great Plains Vt1100 Turbo-Max® VT1100-30

The industry-leading Turbo-Max has been reimagined for even greater versatility and performance. Introducing the VT1100 Turbo-Max, with new features and options, including a double basket for the smoothest finish, chopper reels to handle tough residue conditions, and a choice of blades to better match your application. Adjustable gangs deliver cross-season flexibility for optimum residue management and seedbed preparation, making the VT1100 the true vertical tillage solution for producers who take soil management seriously.

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°.

• 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.

• The VT1100 Turbo-Max frame has been redesigned to support new finishing attachment options. The updated frame also accommodates heavier transport axles and tires.

• 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.

• 7-lip seals on each side of the gang bearings lock in grease and prevent contamination. Additionally, the walking beam pivots utilize coated bushings, eliminating the need for tapered bearings and grease in pivot points. Drop axles pivot on anti-rotational pins, requiring no maintenance.
