Manage compaction faster
MT Series Minimum Till Rippers are built to run at 4 – 7 miles per hour behind today’s high horsepower tractors.
Rip 25 more acres per day with the MT11 compared to the previous 9 standard model. MT Series Rippers break-up deep compaction at depths up to 16 in. while minimizing topsoil disturbance.
Extended wear components lead to higher productivity
Extended wear standards deliver double the life expectancy compared to previous 2100 ripper models. The MT series delivers a highly productive and easy to set minimal maintenance solution to breaking up soil compaction. Spend less time changing components and more time working your ground.
TruSet™ Active maintains depth in changing conditions
TruSet Active is included in-base for MT Series Drawn models. (TruSet Active is not available on Integral hitch models).
TruSet Active provides better documentation of agronomic data and the ability to run prescription files. With TruSet Active, operators can adjust depth from inside the cab. Single point (manual) depth control is also included as standard equipment on drawn machines.
TruSet Active maintains the desired depth of the MT Series (with Drawn hitches). When field conditions are challenging, TruSet Active uses ultrasonic technology to keep the ripper at desired depth regardless of mud on the tires, or when tires sink into soft soils.
See TruSet for additional information: TruSet™ features, packages, and documentation
Customers of competitive tractors and older John Deere tractors will need a TruSet™ compatibility kit. Please see Compatibility for additional details for specific tractor models.
