Kuhn North America has introduced the new 5640 field cultivator.
The 5640 model brings several new features and sizes building upon the solid performance of the previous 5635. New 56′ and 60′ sizes are available for large producers looking to utilize the ever-increasing horsepower of large tractors
The machine has been designed for narrow transport allowing easy transportation from field to field. In addition, the frame has been designed to optimize both strength and weight per foot insuring machine performance in wet conditions. Hydraulic positive stop depth control is a standard feature that allows the operator to adjust the depth of each section independent of the other sections.
Customer favorite features have been retained such as the unique floating hitch design that lifts the gauge wheels off the ground during transport providing greater machine stability avoiding the dreaded “castor wobble” of other competitive machines. The 5640 retains the industry leading 139″ depth of frame for handling high volumes of residue and offers a choice of spring or K-Tine mounts fitted with either edge-on or flat shanks depending on soil and residue conditions.
The 24/7 leveling systems offer users six different configurations of leveling attachments, featuring a new anti-tangle five-row spike tooth harrow and a new optional hydraulic reel lift. These attachments allow for continued operation in heavy residue and wet conditions.
The 5640 field cultivator is now available in 20’6″ through 60’6″ RTK working widths.
