2021 Orthman 9300 Cultivator

The Orthman 9300 Cultivator brings heavy-duty Orthman strength to a compact, lightweight, high-speed cultivator able to handle high-residue conditions common in strip-till and no-till applications. The wraparound parallel linkage and close-coupled row unit design make the 9300 lightweight and maneuverable in the field and on the road. Single- or dual-gauge wheels effectively control cultivation depth, and precision sweeps kill weeds while keeping residue cover intact, ensuring precision cultivation every time.

Features may include:

• 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 joins steel to steel to stand up to the rigors of high residue cultivation.

• The 9300’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.

• The dual row unit gauge wheel option consistently determines tooling depth on 30 inch and wider spacings to ensure a precision cultivation every time. The single tire gauge wheel design allows for row spacings as narrow as 20 inches.

• Dual Tire Front Gauge Wheel

• Single Tire Front Gauge Wheel

• Precision wrench-free depth adjustment on both gauge wheel options provides precise and consistent cutting depth adjustment. High visibility depth indicators enable easy height adjustment settings across the entire machine.

• Reduce your maintenance workload with the 9300’s heavy-duty sealed bearings that allow you to conquer the toughest cultivating conditions.

• Pull soil away from the plant without disturbing the root zone with the standard equipment barring-off discs; when not in use, the wrench-free pin adjustment lets you quickly rotate them out of the way.

• The crank-adjust center coulter with high visibility depth indicators enables easy height adjustment and is included as standard equipment, enabling the 9300 to cut through the heaviest residue.

• The 9300’s rear shank can utilize multiple Orthman sweep styles, including the single piece sweep, western sweep and super sweep, with blade options to match your row spacing. The rear tooling features a simple bolted angle adjustment for precise angle settings.

• Single Piece Sweep; Cut Widths 14” to 26”

• Western Sweep; Cut Widths 16” to 28”

• Super Sweep; Cut Widths 18” to 26”

• If you need to move more dirt for furrow building, the fully width adjustable Orthman ridging wings are available for all sweep options. The self-storing ridging wing attachment can be rotated out of the way when not in use.
