MZZ 185 Professional 4FARMER Separating Tiller with Seeder (Red)

Thanks to the capabilities of modern agricultural machinery and technological advancements, lawn care and seedbed preparation are becoming less burdensome and more automated. For owners of larger cultivated areas or gardening businesses, agricultural machinery is invaluable, allowing them to save time and achieve greater work efficiency.

To enjoy a beautiful, dense lawn or a bountiful harvest of vegetables and fruit, proper soil preparation is crucial. This work primarily aims to ensure that the soil is loose, not too compacted, but not too light. It also requires adequate moisture and aeration. Providing the right amount of nutrients to ensure proper plant growth is crucial. These nutrients include the humus content of the soil.

Proper preparation for such work is essential for success. Unfortunately, preparing the ground manually takes a lot of time and effort, and can sometimes lead to unexpected complications. This is why more and more people are choosing to purchase a tiller .

How does a tiller work? How does a separating tiller differ from a regular tiller?

A tiller is a tractor-mounted machine designed for mechanically digging, breaking up, and loosening soil. It facilitates soil preparation for a new lawn, vegetable growing, and other gardening tasks. Depending on its design, it can also assist in removing old turf and weeds, and leveling the surface.

Three-point linkage mounting:

• diameter of lower pins: 22 mm,
• upper pin diameter: 19 mm,
• minimum width of the three-point linkage: 500 mm.

In the MZZ Professional 4FARMER separating tiller, blades mounted on a rotary shaft rotate in the opposite direction to the tractor's direction of travel. They crush the soil, which is then sifted through a system of separating bars. These act like a sieve, separating finer soil fractions from larger elements such as stones, sticks, roots, and large clods of earth. The separated debris falls to the lower layer of the soil, and the crushed soil covers it, creating a prepared surface.

Key information about the blades:

• blade dimensions (length): 170 × 135 × 220 mm,
• blade width: 80 mm,
• mounting hole diameter: 22 mm,
• mounting hole spacing: 45 mm,
• mounting with 2 bolts: diameter 14 and 40 mm.

The rear roller of a separating tiller allows you to adjust the machine's working depth while also leveling and compacting the soil. This leaves the surface better prepared for subsequent work, such as grass seeding. This is one of the key differences between a separating tiller and a standard tiller, which does not provide the same separation and surface finishing effect.

The separating tiller is used primarily for establishing lawns, but it is also useful for leveling previously disturbed soil.

What else makes the MZ Professional separating tiller stand out?

The MZZ Professional 4FARMER model offers a slight lateral shift, allowing for more precise positioning of the machine relative to the tractor. This solution makes it easier to adjust the device's position to the working conditions.

The tiller is chain-driven. When selecting the PTO drive shaft, provide suitable overload protection, such as a shear bolt or clutch, in accordance with the manufacturer's requirements. This helps protect the tractor's driveline and the machine's gearbox against overload.

Key information about the drive chain:

• number of links: 18,
• length of a single link, measured from pin axis to pin axis: 57 mm,
• outer diameter of the roller: 19 mm,
• pin thickness: 9.5 mm,
• link thickness: 4 mm,
• outer chain width: 36 mm,
• intermediate chain width: 27.5 mm,
• internal chain width: 19 mm.

Key information about sprockets:

Upper sprocket:

• number of teeth: 9,
• diameter with teeth: 100 mm,
• diameter without teeth: 70 mm,
• internal diameter: 35 mm (circlip retention),
• internal diameter at the meshing point: 40 mm.

Lower sprocket:

• number of teeth: 16,
• diameter with teeth: 180 mm,
• diameter without teeth: 150 mm,
• inner diameter: 40 mm (nut mounting).

The MZZ Professional 4FARMER Separating Tiller features a robust housing made of thick sheet metal, a reinforced main shaft, and a thick drive chain. It also features an increased number of longer-than-standard blades, allowing for greater depths of operation. It's best to refer to the manufacturer's specifications for your specific model for this parameter.

A practical solution is the hinged flap, which makes it easier to keep the machine clean and provides better access to the main shaft and the blade axle.

Sheet thickness:

• main housing: 8 mm,
• reinforcements: 6 mm,
• shaft arms: 10 mm,
• skid: 6 mm,
• headstock: 6 mm,
• covers: 2.5 mm.

Two shock-absorbing elements are located on both sides of the machine, above the hinged flap. If a moving part of the machine comes into contact with a large rock or clod of earth, these elements help reduce impact and protect the upper surface of the housing.

Its robust construction and features that simplify operation make the MZZ Professional 4FARMER separating tiller suitable for demanding soil preparation work. It is intended for landscaping companies and municipal service providers, particularly for establishing lawns, leveling ground and preparing soil for subsequent work.

Separating tiller with seeder – an irreplaceable tillage unit!

The MZZ Professional model is a robust tillage unit for carrying out a full range of soil preparation tasks. The seeder is equipped with a lockable flap and latches for the seeder flap. These prevent uncontrolled flap opening and potential spillage of the material being sown.

The seeder features a sowing-rate adjustment mechanism. Opening or closing the holes located at the bottom of the seeder allows for the adjustment of sowing rate. The rotating seeder shaft located inside the seeder evenly distributes the material being sown, preventing clumping or clogging of the seeder holes.

If you are looking for a professional unit that combines all the elements necessary for soil preparation and sowing, the MZZ Professional separating tiller is definitely the product for you!
