4.5 Double Disc Roller
The standard DD600 roller is made up of
individual Double Disc (patented) Ring
segments.
The DD rings are designed to consolidate
the soil whilst cutting and crushing any clods.
Even in heavy, wet soils it can easily be
operated with minimal blockages occurring.
The rear DD roller carries a proportion of the
machine’s weight to ensure consolidation.
The corrugated surface left by the roller is
weatherproof both for wet or dry situations.

4.4 Levelling Boards
The action of the levelling boards is to carry
and drop soil to level in front of the press
rings, to rub clod against clod for additional
soil breakdown, to force clods down into the
soil profile and to present remaining clods
passing between the leaves into the front
row of press rings.
