Hi @charlvandeventer3084. You can reach our ZA representative Ashley Whitfield on +27 82 567 8245. You can also reach our team by emailing sales@kellytillage.com - we're always happy to answer any questions or help you find your local dealer.

The horsepower required to operate a KELLY Tillage System will vary depending on the soil conditions and the Disc Chain configuration. For our 6m model (Model 2006) we recommend a minimum of 120hp.

Hi Lance. The correct approach to your field would depend on soil type and the condition of the field. For removing weeds or working with heavy soils, we'd recommend a sharp-edged Disc Chain such as the K4 or the heavier CL2. For creating a level planting surface and incorporating organic matter into the topsoil, we'd recommend our highly durable CL1 Disc Chain. A combination could also be used, such as fitting K4 on the front chain set and CL1 on the rear. If you're interested in discussing further, feel free to reach out to our team. You can find our contact details on our website: www.kellytillage.com

Hi @irondarknessdarkness8900. We don't have any new footage of the 8024 to share at this time, but we'll certainly be uploading it here as soon as we capture some. In the meantime, you can find existing footage of our 80ft machine here: czcams.com/video/u5v5MychJE4/video.html czcams.com/video/q-WPOxfgLvw/video.html

@@Kelly_Tillage oh i have watched those, i have long expected something more on it to be honest.

Hi Hendrik, thanks for your comment. K4 front and CL1 rear is a popular combination for seedbed preparation. Bouncing or skipping on the chains is usually a sign that you need to reduce working speed. Swapping your rear K4 Disc Chain for CL1 may help to overcome this issue, but it would be best to speak with our reps to find whether this is the right fit for your conditions. If you contact us be email (sales@kellytillage.com) and describe your issue in more detail, we'd be happy to recommend a solution for you.

@@Kelly_Tillage thanks for getting back. What is k4 all around used for mostly

@@hendrik1636c K4 is primarily intended for enhanced weed control, especially in loam soils. It's also ideal for managing residue - the sharp disc edge slices and chops standing stalks, leaving them on the surface to break down more quickly. You might use K4/K4 instead of K4/CL1 if you were dealing with heavier crop stubble or weed control.

Thanks for your comment! It's certainly popular in the American Midwest. We've also had a lot of rice farmers using our machine in the Mississippi River delta.

They are available in the US, but they are generally built to interface with the Model 4614, which is an updated version of the 45. If you email our team at sales@kellytillage.com we should be able to provide you with some more information.

Hi Polapszenicy, As I mentioned on your previous comment, we'd be happy to put you in touch with your local Kelly Dealer. If you email our team at sales@kellytillage.com then we will be able to send you more information. 😁

Thanks for the feedback Raymond! Always good to hear that our tool is helping to make a difference.

Hi Kristaps, We'd recommend our new K4 Disc Chain for heavy couch grass; either K4/K4 or K4/CL1, depending on how heavy or light your soil is. You can learn more about our K4 Disc Chain here: czcams.com/video/vX6h6YVq--s/video.html We do have a dealer in Latvia! Email us at sales@kellytillage.com and we can put you in contact with them to discuss a demo.

Hi Polapszenicy, We'd be happy to put you in touch with your local Kelly Dealer. If you email us at sales@kellytillage.com then our team will be able to send you some more specific information.

The horsepower requirements will depend on the Disc Chains used. For the Model 2006 we'd estimate around 120hp for a lighter Disc like the CL1, and up to 200hp for our heavy CL2 Disc Chain. Note that this will also vary with different soil types.

We've had a lot of success at using our machines to control the Maize Borer. By breaking up the residue at the internode, we can remove the potential habitat for the pest. We'd be happy to talk more with you about a test or answer any further questions - send us an email at sales@kellytillage.com and we'll get back to you.

Thanks for your generous feedback Raymond - it's always a pleasure to hear that our tools are helping farmers to get the job done! If there's ever anything our team can do for you, you can get in touch by emailing us at sales@kellytillage.com

Thanks for your question, Pochon Julien. Certainly the machine will work in dry soils, although results will of course depend on the nature of the soils and the job being done. For processing residue, the disc chains are very effective regardless of soil moisture. Their extremely shallow working depth (2-4cm) reduces the potential for damaging the soil structure. In dry soils with a heavy clay content, the discs will of course penetrate less than they otherwise might.

How Deep its work?

@@polapszenicy Kelly Disc Chains work very shallow - generally between 2-4cm. This allows them to control weeds and incorporate residue without disturbing the deeper soil structure.

Thanks Pieter. We appreciate your enthusiasm for sustainable seedbed preparation!

Short answer: a lot! It's hard to give an exact estimate, as power requirements are heavily influenced by soil types and working conditions. To comfortably pull the 80ft, we'd recommend around 500hp - up to 600hp if you were using our heavier CL2 Disc Chains.

@@Kelly_Tillage thanks , that gives me perspective.

@@Kelly_Tillage well here is a thought for you..how about a gooseneck arch for pulling 2 45' frames discs on the front and spiked chains on the rear[ those are really nice btw] for a single pass/double toss. with that seeder on the rear frame.

You're not the first person to think of building a jig to run two machines at once - take a look at this: czcams.com/video/v6jlfs_Gwwg/video.html It's certainly an interesting idea. If you're suggesting running one machine behind another though, there may not be much need. One pass is enough in most situations, especially with the option to use different chains on the front and rear of each machine.

@@Kelly_Tillage i saw that but its side by side..i wanted a twin inline 45' set one with heavy discs on the front unit and those finger chains on the back unit ...same kind of thing they do with double towed rolling harrows or standard disc and harrow. like this czcams.com/video/w-lUSGd87AA/video.html&feature=emb_logo the first unit cuts it up and then the finger chains fine it up...does that seeder also work with dry fertilizer as well?
