The new NZ Mounted

Väderstad launches a new version of NZ Mounted. Thereby the mounted tine harrow is upgraded with a new 6-metre model, as well as a reinforced frame and a unique versatile drawbar.

The new NZ Mounted 500-600 is equipped with a unique versatile drawbar, making it able to replicate the excellent contour following precision of a trailed machine, while also taking the advantages from being a mounted machine.

- The versatile drawbar enables the driver to easily unlock the drawbar linkage into a floating position. In the floating position, NZ Mounted can move independently from the tractor, offering an exceptional contour following in three dimensions. If needed, the drawbar linkage can easily by locked, without the need for tools, says Mattias Hovnert, Senior Vice President Sales & Marketing, at Väderstad.

While upgrading the machine, a new 6-metre model is introduced. With tines fitted on four axles and a tine spacing of 9cm, NZ Mounted 500-600 delivers an intensive seedbed preparation.

- NZ Mounted 500-600 deliver an intensive seedbed preparation and a great depth keeping ability. By performing multiple operations in one pass the NZ mounted is able to save passes during seedbed preparation. This retains moisture, reduces soil compaction and increases yield potential, says Mattias Hovnert.

The new NZ Mounted 500-600 has its premiere at the agricultural tradeshow Agritechnica 2019 in Hannover, Germany. NZ Mounted 500-600 will go into production during the start of 2020.
