The Amazone Tyrok 400 is equipped with a completely new semi-mounted reversible plough in a choice of seven, eight or nine furrows for the 400 HP tractor class. The main feature of the plough is its higher output, even under continuous load.
The new SpeedBlade plough body, with its patented extra-large front shin on the mouldboard, ensures minimal wear on the main mouldboard. The main wear point automatically shifts further and further back towards the centre of the plough body as working speed is increased from 6km/h up to 10km/h.
As a result, the main wear point of the SpeedBlade body is on the enlarged front shin of the mouldboard and not back on the main part of the slatted or solid mouldboard, even at higher forward speeds. This means that, initially, only the front shin of the mouldboard has to be replaced on the Tyrok when used at higher speeds. This greatly reduces wear compared with other designs.
