b. Spring Reset Mounts can be equipped with several dif-
ferent shank and point configurations. The most popular
is the Parabolic Shank with a 7” winged point. This point
is similar to the ones on the toggle trip shank except It
has a “fin” on it that helps minimize shank “blow out”.
The combination of these shank assemblies and the
Toggle Trip shanks provide the best combination for
fracturing the ground completely while leaving the sur-
face in a relatively “smooth” condition. By following the
combination with a Chopper Reel or Buster Bar, one
pass finishing in the Spring is attainable. Spring Reset
Mounts can also be equipped with a Standard Chisel
Shank which supports many point options. See chart
below for a detailed analysis of the varying point
options.
