The KUHN Krause 4830 in-line ripper is the ideal tool to fight soil compaction, one of the leading causes of yield reduction. With working depths of 8” to 16”, the 4830 provides maximum soil fracturing, while allowing crop residue to remain undisturbed on the surface. This allows for greater root development and water infiltration into the soil, and effectively reduces runoff and soil erosion. KUHN Krause 4830 in-line rippers are available in 4- to 7-shank rigid models and 6- to 9-shank flat folding models, with shank spacing choices of 30”, 36”, 38” or 40”. The unique 180-degree, flat-fold configuration makes transport and storage more convenient. The 4830 can be equipped with spring reset shanks or rigid, shear-bolt protected shanks for soils where rock is not a concern. There are a variety of points available depending on your agronomic needs. |
3-Point or Pull-Type Configurations 3-Point Hitch Designed for deep tillage with strength and durability in mind. This Category III, 3-point hitch is integrated into a two-bar frame design with main members of heavy-duty, 6”x6” structural steel tubing. |
Drawbar Pull-Hitch (Small Frame) The optional drawbar pull-hitch lets you match tractors, not equipped with 3-point hitches, to the 4830 in-line ripper. Equipped with four 280/70 R 15 tires, the drawbar hitch provides excellent field flotation and depth control. |
Drawbar Pull-Hitch (Large Frame) The optional drawbar pull-hitch lets you match tractors, not equipped with 3-point hitches, to the 4830 in-line ripper. Four 280/70 R15 tires rear and (2) 280/70 R15 tires on front mounted gauge wheels. |
Shank Mounts to Match Your Field Conditions Shear-Bolt Rigid, shear-bolt mounts are an economical choice for soils where rocks or other obstacles are not a concern. Shear-bolt protection guards against shank damage from unexpected obstacles. // Shear force: 10,000 pounds (approximate) // 16” maximum shank working depth // For non-rock conditions |
Spring Reset Recommended for field conditions where obstacles or rocks may be encountered. A 4”x4” welded tube provides strength.
// 2,500 pound point load |
PathFind’R™ Exclusive pivoting design allows the shank to deflect up to 6 degrees on each side for a total of 12 degrees of movement.
// Basic spring reset design |
Shank & Point Options MRD Shanks, Points and Wings (Minimum Residue Disturbance) Choose from a variety of MRD shank points and wings to achieve optimum residue level and surface appearance. // 1-1/4” Profile // Austempered ductile, reversible wear bar // Welded chromium carbide side plates |
2” Chromium Carbide Point 5” Shattering Wing
// Residue remaining: 51% to 65%
Low-Disturbance Shank Cap
// Residue remaining: 51% to 65% |
¾” Chromium Carbide Point 5” Shattering Wing
// Residue remaining: 68% to 75%
// Residue remaining: 68% to 75% |
No-Till Shank, Points and Wings The no-till point and 8” wing break up the compacted soil layer, while the narrow ¾” shank slips through the soil leaving up to 86% residue on the surface. With replaceable wear parts, this no-till design offers up to 50% operation cost saving versus competitors. // ¾” profile // High-tensile steel shank // Austempered or chromium carbide points, wings and wear bar // Chromium carbide side plates // Residue remaining: Up to 86% // Fracture: 55% to 70% // Replaceable wear parts |
2” Hard Surface Point
// Best performance for rocky conditions |
