No compromises
The Carrier 300-400 is a rigid high-speed disc, available in 9.8- to 13.1-foot working widths with trailed and 3-point-hitch configurations available. The Carrier 300-400 mixes residue and leaves a perfectly level field finish. The frame provides stability and durability, sitting very close to the tractor to save on front ballast while reducing the compaction risk.
The Carrier is used for high-speed primary tillage and seedbed preparation. The wide range of front tools, discs and packers enables the Carrier to handle the various challenges of modern farming – from ultra-shallow tillage to deeper incorporation. The versatility it brings to the farm saves passes, decreases machine cost per acre and provides the best start possible for the coming crop.
Selected features
Impressive weight per disc
The Carrier 300-400 can be equipped with up to 1,763.7 pounds of extra weight. This results in a weight per foot higher than any competitive unit in its class.
You benefit from a greater penetration force and exceptional working results in all field conditions.
Two disc options
The Carrier 300-400 can be fitted with either 17.7" discs or 18.5" TrueCut discs. Both options are capable of producing an ideal field finish and seedbed.
The 17.7" disc has small cut-outs, resulting in aggressive soil movement even at a very shallow working depth. The 18.5" TrueCut disc has larger cut-outs, which can handle more crop residue with increased penetration.
Intensive ultra-shallow tillage
The available CrossCutter Disc performs well in cover crops or sizing small grain residue. Because of its specialized disc shape and premium quality Swedish steel, the CrossCutter Disc provides full-width tillage and intensive mixing at shallow working depths for creating the ideal seedbed.
Disc Configurator
To meet differing farming needs, Väderstad offers a wide range of discs for disc cultivators. With the right choice of discs you are able to optimize the working result on your fields, providing the best start possible for the next crop.
Great mobility
The Väderstad Carrier 300-400 is mounted on the three-point linkage for easy operation and great maneuverability.
It gives you a small turning radius on headlands and convenient transport between fields.
Choose between trailed and mounted models
Equipped with a RubberRunner packer, the Carrier 300-400 can be configured as a trailed version. This takes weight off the tractor and reduces the lifting requirement. The weight is distributed between the tractor and the implement which, in turn, reduces soil compaction concerns.
CrossBoard levels
To increase its leveling performance, the trailed Carrier 300-400 can be equipped with a hydraulic CrossBoard Heavy with a double-acting stabilizing bar.
Save passes with the BioDrill seeder
By equipping the Carrier 300-400 with the BioDrill, you can seed cover crops, canola and other small-seeded crops during your tillage pass.
This can help preserve soil moisture, while saving both time and fuel.
Product concept
Zone 1 - Intensive cutting and mixing
Two rows of high quality V-55 hardened Swedish steel discs aggressively cut and mix harvest residue at working depths up to approximately 4.75". The conical shape of the discs ensures a long working life and excellent soil crumbling.
CrossCutter Disc
CrossCutter Disc Aggressive
17.7-inch discs
TrueCut 18.5-inch discs
CrossBoard Heavy (Trailed models)
Zone 2 - Reconsolidation
The Carrier can be equipped with packers suitable for a wide range of field conditions. The rubber suspension on the packer absorbs shocks and extends the working life of the frame and the packer.
