Operating Instructions
4.4 DD Light Roller
The DD Light roller is made up of individual
Double Disc (patented) Ring segments.
The DD Light roll is 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 Light roller carries a proportion
of the machine’s weight to ensure
consolidation. It also regulates the depth of
the disc units. The corrugated surface left by
the roller is weatherproof both for wet or dry
situations.

4.5 Aqueel 2 Roller
The Aqueel 2 is a rubber, specialist self-
cleaning tyre which leaves a patterned surface
profile consisting of conical indentations. This
is designed to combat surface water
movement and wind erosion in the field. The
benefit of Aqueeled ground (reservoir tillage)
is gained on light, easy working soils that can
slump or compact.
