KVERNELAND LO & LO VARIOMAT High performance plough On-land & In-furrow 4 - 7 furrows
The advantages of this Reversible Plough
- Safe transport: optional Trailer Transport Solution
- Easy conversion from In-furrow to On-land operations
- Ideal for tractors with dual wheels or rubber tracks
- Infinite hydraulic furrow width adjustments
- Easy manual adjustments in steps of 5cm (2")
Description
Designed for In-Furrow and On-Land operations, the Kverneland LO stepwise and LO Variomat® are robust ploughs with lower lift requirements than other brands. The heavy duty head stock No 300 provides the necessary strength for a smooth reversing. The Kverneland unique steels and the heat treatment of the complete plough guarantee its longevity. The On-land configuration of the plough offers an impressive offset: adjustable up to 3.4 – 3.7 m, depending on furrow width and interbody clearance. It allows the tractor to be positioned exactly to the drivers’ requirements.
Highlights
- Safe transport: Kverneland Trailer Transport Solution (optional: TTS)
- Simple conversion from In-furrow to On-land operations. The driver has fingertip control
- Ideal for tractors having dual wheels or rubber tracks
- Infinite hydraulic furrow width adjustments with the Kverneland LO Variomat®
- Easy manual adjustments in steps of 5cm (2") for Kverneland LO, by replacing only 1 bolt
- Efficient soil re-consolidation in one pass: Kverneland packers and packer arm
- All models can be extended by 1 furrow, max. 7 furrow plough
Features
Robust legs with 80cm underbeam clearance.
Ideal leg protections for light to the heaviest soils without stones.
Shearbolt protections with 4200 kp release force.
Stepless Vari-width® system for infinite adjustments of working width. Kverneland’s world patented system is available either with hydraulic or mechanical furrow adjustments.
Benefits:
- Easy variation of ploughing capacity
- Perfect match at all time between tractor capacity, implement and soil conditions
- Time saving: up to 30% more capacity
- Cost saving: up to 18% reduction in fuel consumption in relation with increased ploughing capacity
- Better work: plough up to the hedges, fences, trees and ditches
- Minimum wear: unique non-wearing linkage joint between the beams and the mainframe section
- Perfect line of pull at all time. Kverneland’s Vari-width offers the correct parallel linkage along the whole plough. Therefore, lower draft requirement, minimum wear and tear.
Importance of heat treatment
- The frame is an essential part of the plough construction. For Kverneland quality standards, a non heat treated part is a weak part!
- Kverneland frames are heat treated by induction twice. The temperature transfer to the steel is closely monitored. The frame gains 3 times as much strength. This unique Kverneland induction processes provides robustness and flexibility while ensuring an outstanding durability.
Stronger but not heavier
- For the equivalent Kverneland robustness, competitors would use more steel in thickness or in dimensions, therefore producing a heavier frame.
- Heavier frame impacts negatively pulling forces, wearing of parts, lifting capacities, tractor life time, and fuel consumption.
Long lasting
- Weldings are also a critical weakness for a plough frame. Kverneland frames are supplied as one sole part!
Frame availability
- 120 x 200mm with head stock 300
- available in 4 to 7 furrows, extendable by 1 furrow max. 7 F ploughs
Excellent Ploughing Quality
They are renowned all over the world for their:
- excellent ploughing quality
- outstanding wear resistance
- low draft requirements
Bodies of a unique steel.
Kverneland Technology: 12 hours carburising heat treatment process for:
- optimum wear resistance (sharp as a diamond)
- the necessary flexibility to absorb impacts
Body No. 8 – “Universal body”
for light to heavy soils
good trash burial
easy pulling
Depth: 15 to 30 cm (6 to 12”)
Width: 30 to 55 cm (12 to 22”)
Body No. 9 – “Deep Universal body”
for heavier soils and deeper ploughing
well turned and packed furrows
easy pulling
Depth: 15 to 35 cm (6 to 14”)
Width: 30 to 55 cm (12 to 22”)
Body No. 28 – “Wide tyre body”
suits all soils; even heavier soils than body 8
very wide empty furrow for tractor wheels up to 710 mm
good turning and well packed
easy pulling
suitable for Depth: 12 to 30 cm ( 5 to 12”)
Width: 30 to 55 cm (12 to 22”)
Body No. 30 – “Finger body”
for sticky-stony soil and abrasive soils
good work in heavier soils
best crumbling effect
wide furrow bottom,
Depth: 20 to 35 cm (8 to 14”)
Width: 30 to 55 cm (12 to 22”)
Body No. 34 – Plastic mouldboard
Long and slim shape (similar to body 28)
For soils with high humus content without stones
Advised for tactors with large tyres
Easy pulling
Working depth: 12-35cm
Working width: 30-55cm
Landside / mouldboard: 40 degree
Body No. 38
universal body – easy to pull
for any soil conditions
recommended for tractors with large tyres
from deep to shallow ploughing
perfect turning of the furrow slice
working depth: 12-35 cm
working width: 30-55 cm
landside / mouldboard: 40°
Kverneland Heat Treatment Technology:
- more than 140 years of experience
- steels that withstand the toughest of conditions
- best robustness/weight ratio on the market
- for equivalent robustness, competitors would add more steel and therefore more weight, quicker wear, dissappointing ploughing results
Kverneland Steels:
- Benefits from less weight:
easier to pull/lower fuel consumption/lower lift requirement/reduced wear and stress for the tractor/more economical … - Benefits from more resistance:
minimum breakage/less maintenance/lower rotation for wearing parts/time saving/highest 2nd hand plough value/longer life for the plough/more economical…
Problems always happen when the plough is being used, when the work must be done!
A Kverneland plough is a peace mind!
