2024 UM Unverferth 1245-Series 55'

The Unverferth Rolling Harrow soil conditioner has been the industry's leading soil finisher for more than 35 years. And it just keeps getting better! The model 1245 double basket Rolling Harrow builds on the three-decade-long tradition of aggressive, scalloped, and pitched front baskets coupled with passive rear baskets for the best seedbed possible. Model 1245D features the same front basket as the 1245 and couples it with a cleated rear rolling drum for enhanced soil firming. The exclusive basket design with notched end and center discs ensure consistent tillage depth and longer basket life. The rear rolling drum on 1245D models pushes down stones for additional draper head clearance during harvest. The Unverferth Rolling Harrow soil conditioner…others imitate, none duplicated.

Features may include:

The Unverferth Rolling Harrow soil conditioner has been proven in the field for more than 35 years. While others imitate this time-tested product, none can duplicate the innovative features and optimal performance of the Rolling Harrow.

The double basket design combines an aggressive front basket with angled blades that dig into the soil and propels larger soil clods into the rear, a passive basket with vertical blades that firm and condition the soil. The basket frame can be easily reversed for extra firming action in lighter soils.

The exclusive basket design features notched end and center discs for consistent tillage depth and the blade height is increased by 20% compared to previous models for increased soil penetration and extended life.

Models 1245 and 1245D feature a lead 12.5" diameter robotically welded basket with a 1 5/8" center shaft providing full-width basket support and is ideal for pulling at conventional tillage speeds behind field cultivators and discs.

The double basket and basket-drum mounting arms feature pivot covers that prevent rocks and debris from accumulating, which ensures the basket oscillates and follows ground contours.

All baskets and drums on the Rolling Harrow soil conditioner feature patented 4-bolt greaseless bearings with a 1 1/8" square bore that can withstand heavy side-load stress during high-speed turns and triple lip seals with an exclusive shouldered construction that prevent the seals from reversing, keeping out dirt and debris.

The Unverferth Rolling Harrow soil conditioner models 1245 and 1245D are available in sizes ranging from 12’ up to 63’ and feature a 12’ or 15’ base with a stack-, flat-, cross- or 5-section vertical-fold design depending on size.

The oversized 5” x 5” adjustable length tongue can be extended from 10’ 2” to 19’ 2” on 12’ base models and from 12’ 10” to 21’ 10” on 15’ base models which provides a generous turning radius.

Depending on field conditions, generally ½ to 1 ½ horsepower per foot of Rolling Harrow is required and minimal weight is added to the lead tillage implement for reduced stress.

The main frame features 22" of ground transport clearance and utilizes 9.5L x 15 dual wheels and tires (11L x 15 duals on 5-section vertical fold) for exceptional transport stability.

The tongue, main frame and wings are powder coated in your choice of tractor red or green for a long-lasting, high-quality finish.

The Rolling Harrow soil conditioner tillage tool is complete with all hydraulics, including couplers and protectors, to raise the transport wheels and fold the wings. All hydraulic hoses are rated at 3,000 PSI and are routed through the mainframe for longer life.
