Great Plains Turbo-Max®

Take control of your adjustment and monitoring needs right at your fingertips with the Implement Command option for select models of Turbo-Max®, Terra-Max®, Velocity®, and Disk Harrow! This system allows you to set, adjust, and monitor your implement on-the-go and in real time – on your ISOBUS-compatible monitor in your tractor cab.

The hydraulic reel allows you to conveniently adjust down pressure or lift out of the ground with in-cab hydraulic operation. An easy-to-read pressure gauge allows for easy down-pressure monitoring from the tractor seat! This design maintains travel regardless of the selected down pressure. A hydraulic cylinder is used to preload down-pressure springs. When field conditions are not ideal, the reel can be raised completely out of the ground. The hydraulic reel is now standard on 18' and wider models and optional on 12' and 15' units.

Hydraulic fore/aft leveling allows the operator to easily adjust and level the implement from the cab without any wrenches or tools needed. This feature is now standard on models 18' and wider.

Gangs angle on the Turbo-Max® from 0° to 6°. In the fall, angle the gangs from 3° to 6° to size and cover residue, then set the gangs at 0° in the spring to prepare the ultimate seedbed. Larger models (12' and wider) are equipped with hydraulic cylinders to make gang angle changes on the go. The smaller models are manually adjustable, with the hydraulic adjustment as an optional feature. Heavy, ductile cast spools keep the weight in the gangs, ensuring reliability of the C-shanks and bearings.

With 20" Turbo coulters spaced 7½" apart, Turbo-Max® provides true vertical cutting without the shearing caused by concave blades. Offset front and rear gangs achieve an effective residue cutting width of 3¾" when running at 0°.

Combine the benefits of cover crop application and soil management with the Turbo-Seeder from Great Plains! Turbo-Seeder™ offers a cost-effective, highly productive method for broadcast seeding cover crops with a vertical or hybrid tillage tool. With Turbo-Seeder™, you can simultaneously till your soil, size residue, and plant cover crops in one pass.

The hydraulic weight transfer creates an even, constant downforce across the entire width of the implement to ensure uniform penetration and eliminate the possibility for the wings to float.

Rolling spike harrow tines split Turbo coulters to ensure thorough mixing of soil and residue, resulting in a smooth, uniform seedbed for optimum planter performance.

Turbo-Max® features two gangs — each with 7½" spacing between coulters — with the rear gang offset from the front gang. The gangs work together to size residue to an industry-leading 3¾".

New 7-lip TillXtreme™ seals on each side of the gang bearings lock in grease and prevent contamination. Additionally, the walking beam pivots utilize coated bushings, eliminating the need for tapered bearings and grease in pivot points. Drop axles pivot on anti-rotational pins, requiring no maintenance.

Consists of two 750-lb. weights to aid in penetration. Weight packages vary with Turbo-Max® size.

Configured for ease of transport and narrow spaces, the new VT1110 Turbo-Max boasts a large working width, yet folds to under 12′. The new VT1110 is available in 20′ and 25′ models and offers the same true vertical tillage benefits as the standard VT1100 Turbo-Max.
