2021 Orthman 8000 Series 8375 Cultivator
The industry’s most versatile toolThe Orthman 8375 Row Crop Cultivator has proven itself to be the industry’s most versatile row crop tillage tool. The 8375 is designed to utilize Orthman’s wide selection of cultivation tools and attachments to ensure a custom field pass for even the toughest of field conditions.
Features may include:
Parallel LinkageForce-through-mount design- Unlike mounting systems that transfer draft force solely through U-bolts that can stretch, distort and break, Orthman’s heavy-duty force-through-mount design and wedge locking system join steel to steel to stand up to the rigors of high residue cultivation.
Reliable weed kill- Orthman’s innovative parallel linkage design allows 8 inches of vertical travel, allowing you to maintain a consistent cut depth for dependable weed kill and precision fertilizer placement when side-dressing regardless of the field terrain.
Precision wrench-free depth adjustment- Provides 9” of quick and consistent tooling depth control with choice of either the depth band coulter or large-tire gauge-wheel option.
Depth Band Coulter Option- The rugged 22” depth band coulter easily slices through surface and sub-surface residue to eliminate interference with the sweep while it simultaneously maintains precise depth control.
Tire Front Option- The 8375’s big tire front option provides superior flotation with its 8” width and 20.5” diameter, all while it simultaneously maintains precise depth control of the row unit for superior weed cutting.
Heavy-Duty Sealed bearings- Reduce your maintenance workload with the 8375’s heavy-duty sealed bearings that allow you to conquer the toughest cultivating conditions.

- Inter-row ripper shank provides maximum water penetration while fracturing compressed soils.

Center Cutting Coulter- When equipped with the large-tire gauge-wheel, the crank-adjust center coulter is included as standard equipment, enabling the 8375 to cut through the heaviest residue.
Multiple Sweep Options to match your needs- The 8375’s rear shank wedge lock provides quick height adjustment and includes shear bolt protection and can utilize multiple Orthman sweep styles, including the single piece sweep, western sweep and super sweep, with blade options to match your row spacing.

Side-dressing options- Precision nutrient placement side-dressing options (liquid or NH3 fertilizer) allow for dual operations in a single pass for greater efficiency. The dual fertilizer tube option splits to each side of the row to precision place fertilizer close to the crop, while the shank mounted knife option can place the fertilizer deeper in the center of the row.
