imageHorsch has introduced the Joker RT40, a 40-ft.-wide version of its RT Joker Series. The new trailed disc harrow model features a five-section design with adjustable down pressure to closely follow ground contours and evenly distribute the machine’s weight for ensuring precise tillage depths. It also folds to a transport width of 15′8″ for transport down narrow roads and for easy maneuverability.

The RT40 offers the same agronomic benefits as other RT Joker models for residue management and seedbed preparation, as well as incorporating chemicals, fertilizer and manure. Its 20-in. notched blades provide precise soil engagement and residue sizing, while optimal spacing between the front and rear ranks allows for maximum soil and residue throughput. Additionally, the RollFlex Finishing System consolidates the soil to accelerate residue decomposition, create a firm seedbed and retain moisture for rapid and even crop emergence.

Other standard features on the RT40 include heavy-duty walking tandem caster gauge wheels, easy depth control adjustment, a hydraulic hitch jack and a RollFlex accumulator system. The unit requires tractor horsepower ratings of 500 or more to operate.
