2024 Salford Independent Series I-1100 60 ft

2024 Salford Independent Series I-1100 60 ft

Features may include:

The first Salford true vertical tillage machine and inaugural Independent Series model, the I-1100 sets the standard for seedbed preparation and residue management. The I-1100 is the go-to conservation tillage tool for light to medium soils and medium to high residue. Originally known as the Residue Tillage Specialist (RTS), the I-1100 is equipped with the patented Coil-Tech Coulter that loosens compaction for improved root development and increased moisture storage. Build for performance, the durable I-1100 frame is the platform for the entire I-Series lineup of innovative tillage machines.

Built tougher than competitors bearing systems. The hub can be greased and serviced, allowing for a longer life and lower operating costs. A 100-hour grease interval means you don’t spend long working on it. The double tapered cup and cone bearings handle side loads for operating in tough conditions. A multi-lip grease seal, grass wrap wear guard and blade scraper protect the hub and seals, even in wet and abrasive soil types.

Single point depth control, and the hydraulic level lift frame make the I-Series machines simple to set and operate. The 4-inch by 6-inch tubular steel frame is sealed with welded end caps to added strength and durability.

The single point depth setting allows operators to quickly adjust for varying field conditions.

The hydraulic level lift frame keeps the lifting cylinders in sync when changing depth and raising/lowering the machine. This ensures that all blades are achieving the same working depth and providing a level field finish and optimal planting conditions.

The I-1100 comes standard with a 14-inch diameter rolling basket and 3 rows of ½-inch diameter, 20-inch length harrows.

The rolling basket provides improved re-sizing of soil clods and help to condition and anchor residue to the surface, helping to reduce erosion. Rolling basket pressure can be quickly adjusted with a spring tension system.

The tine harrows are mounted on a parallel linkage which can be adjusted to multiple pitch settings for maximum down pressure and contouring to level and distribute residue.

Salford I-Series tools prepare excellent seedbeds. This makes them an ideal for cover crop seeding with Salford’s Valmar 4056 and 6056 granular applicators. Seed cover crops at lower rates knowing you’ll have improved germination, while you’re managing residue and soil density.
