4.2 3 Point Linkage
The DTX 300 is fitted with a standard
Category 3 linkage at the front of the machine.
4.3 Tines
The DTX 300 is fitted with with either Pro-Lift
tines or LD (Low Disturbance) tines. The tines
are arranged in a staggered formation to give
lower draft requirements and the ability to work
progressively deeper. The tines are spaced
at 400mm. Each tine is shear bolt protected.
Tine depth is achieved by moving the tines
up and down in the adjustable clamps.
Different wings are available to suit the soil
conditions and optimise the performance of
the machine.

Standard Wing
P09060
„ Maximum soil disturbance with
minimum draft requirement under
normal circumstances.
„ Wing angle reduces wear rates on leg.
Extra Lift Wing
P10392
„ Increased lift height and and rake angle
creates greater soil disturbance on all
soil types especially in moister
conditions.
„ Lower relative distance between edge
of wing and point reduces draft
requirement.
„ Has ability to work at lower depths with
no decrease in soil disturbance or risk
of smear.
Extra Wide Wing
P10411
„ Improved lateral shatter in moist/wet
soils, or non-cohesive soils.
„ Ideal for deep vegetable applications
under light/medium soils.
