Kuhn North America, Inc., introduces the HR 1030 and 1040 Series power harrows. These power harrows carry Kuhn’s solid reputation into a new generation with updated features and even better performance. Building on the success of their predecessors, these models have a class-leading driveline and offer operators the most rotor speeds in the industry.

Newly designed rotors and lubed-for-life gear trough reduce power consumption for high tractor fuel efficiency. The sides of the main gear trough are constructed from 5/16-inch-thick steel for outstanding structural rigidity. Forged-steel, treated gears have a convex shape to transmit all the drive forces at the center of the upper bearings.

All Kuhn HR 1030 and 1040 Series power harrows come standard with an adjustable leveling bar to create an even field finish. Hydraulic adjustability, available on the HR 1030 Series and standard on the HR 1040 Series, allows the operator to change the leveling bar and working depth from the seat of the tractor.

Optional equipment is available to help customize each power harrow to an operation. These options can include quick-hitch brackets and stone deflectors. One of those options allows the user to select one of three roller types: MaxiPacker, MegaPacker or MaxiCrumbler. Depending on the soil type, these rollers play an important yet critical role in creating a custom seedbed for the operation.
