2018 Pottinger LION Range 1000/1002 4002

LION power harrows guarantee extremely smooth running and high strength. These machines operate reliably even in the hardest conditions and heaviest soil.

Just take a look at this impressive technology

• Thick-walled gear trough made of fine-grained steel extremely resistant to twisting.

• Tapered front edge soil can flow past unrestricted without bulldozing.

• Large gears feature integrated bearings. Extended inner splines for a secure seat on the rotor shaft.

• The bearing housings are welded to the central gusset and bottom of trough. An exact spacing between each rotor is guaranteed as a result.

• Robust tapered roller bearings in forged, single-piece bearing housings.

• The lower bearings are located as close as possible to the tine carrier, helping to reduce lateral stress.

• The upper and lower bearings are spaced as far apart as possible to reduce load and minimise stress.

• The forged, full-width tine carriers are integrated into casing. This offers the best protection against wrapping because the tines deflect the soil away from the gear trough. As a result stones cannot become trapped between the rotors.

Extended service life is only possible thanks to precision machining and strong construction. At PTTINGER this level of high quality goes without saying

Gear trough and tine mountings

• The high-strength deep gear trough provides the gearbox with excellent torsional strength.

• Large toothed gears, 1.97" or 2.36" / 50 or 60 mm thick rotor shafts with heavy-duty tapered roller bearings and wide bearing spacing ensure durability

• The deep gear trough is formed from a single piece of steel. The welded central gusset provides maximum stability.

• The bearing housings are welded into the box section before milling at the CNC machining centre. This ensures exact rotor-to-rotor spacing and guarantees you smooth-running and a long service life.

• Forged components from the PTTINGER hardening centre offer many years of reliability.
