Frame Design

Low-Maintenance Frame Engineered to Last

Our industry-leading vertical tillage technology enhances operator control, reduces maintenance and extends component life. The True-Tandem symetrical frame design provides uniform pulling pressures, improved balance and stability, and keeps you in the field longer.

Frame
Wheels & Tires
Hitch

Higher productivity

Increased length over competitive equipment improves for and aft leveling and overall balance
Mirror-matched gangs and a rugged, low-maintenance pull-through frame eliminate drift and accommodate higher ground speeds.
Designed with gusset plates to maximize strength and stress distribution.
Delivers more uniform weight per blade.

Durable components

Overlapping weld design and welded cylinders improved durability while reducing maintenance and the chance of damaging the hydraulic hoses.
Greaseless bearings reduce routine maintenance.
The Class 3 powder coat paint finish retains color longer and is more scratch resistant.
LED lights are brighter and longer lasting than incandescent lamps.

Frame-mounted wheels

Our IF 210/75R15 Radial gauge wheels feature an adjustable one-way-pivot design

Reduce compaction

Large, stubble-resistant tires reduce compaction in your fields

Consistent seedbed

Standard walking-tandem design offers balance and stability

Better stability and leveling

Stabilizer wheels are bolted directly to the frame for less wobble and operators can easily set the gauge wheels for wing leveling with no wrenches

Front t-Bone hitch/pull frame:

Engineered to maximize rear tractor tire clearance during tight turns, this spring cushioned hitch features the “perfect hitch” clevis for tractor pin compatibility and extra safety during hook-up.

Swivel hose stand

Mounted on the pull hitch, it keeps hoses and wires our of the way during hook-up and transport.

Rear hitch

This optional feature allows for pull-type attachments for additional soil conditioning. With a vertical capacity of 1,000 pounds, this hitch is equipped with a 9-pin electronic connector for lighting and one set of hydraulic couplers.

Leveling & Depth Control

Level the growing field

Engage soil to your intended depth, without disrupting soil density below the seedbed.

Single-point hydraulic depth control

Easily adjust operating depth with a single hand crank, conveniently located at the front of the machine to meet your needs.
Fore and aft leveling

Adjust levelness from the cab using hydraulics and view the gauge from the cab to easily return to your pre-adjusted position.

Earth Metal Blades

Keep your edge with earth metal blades

Stronger than ordinary carbon steel blades, our industry-exclusive Earth Metal blades help you cover rocky terrain and uneven ground in confidence — even at high speeds. Crimped center disk blades provide a tighter fit with cast iron nodular spools and add strength to the center of the blade. Perfect for no-till and minimum-till environments, these blades penetrate hard soils to help you break through surface compaction.

Wave blade
- True-Tandem 335 VT features 20-inch blades.
- Get reduced compaction compared to conventional blades as each blade runs on its edge and causes soil to level without back pressure.
- Our Robo-Sharpener™ is specifically designed to recondition and sharpen unique Earth Metal VT Wave blades.
Longer edge life VT wave blade
- 20-inch blades with longer edge life are 5 mm thick and available in single-fold machines.
- Same agronomic benefits as the VT Wave Blade, but this blade stays sharper for multiple seasons allowing for reduced maintenance.
- Ideal for land without rocks.

Gang Assembly

A dynamic duo for a superior finish

The 18-degree gang angle paired with each blade’s concavity and crimped center results in even cutting and mixing action for a superior finish. Front gang blades and rear gang blades are precisely indexed to one another, providing an even surface finish and a more even sub-surface floor than any other vertical tillage tool and high-speed disk

Disk gang scraper
- The U-shaped scraper design decreases the likelihood of bending when engaged with rocks and debris.
- Extremely versatile from dry to wet conditions
Arbor bolt
- Round, 1 ½ inch arbor bolts feature a single tightening nut
- Holds torque more consistently than bolts with nuts on either end
Nodular cast-iron spools
- Stronger than gray cast-iron or steel-fabricated spools
- Spools withstand shock loads, providing the weight necessary to cut residue and penetrate hard soil.
Cushion gang bearing
- Equipped with standard cushion C-springs to help absorb the shock load when blades hit an obstruction.

Finishing Tools

Put the finishing touches on your seedbed

The patented TigerPaw™ Crumbler® produces more uniform clod sizing and residue distribution in order to reach seedbed perfection. Made of high-strength steel, the twisted design limits excessive penetration into the soil. Also, the unique design of the Crumbler ensures each bar is rifled to maintain constant down pressure, while hydraulic cylinders provide easy adjustability and settings to match any field condition. A 3-bar Coil Tine Harrow is also available for rice producing areas where high quantities of heavy, thick residue are common.

AFS Technology

Agronomic control technology at your fingertips

AFS Soil Command™ agronomic control technology helps producers overcome unseen challenges to unlock more of a field’s full agronomic potential. Use this advanced technology to correct settings, optimizing the productivity of every tillage pass to create a perfect seedbed.

Coordinated control

AFS Soil Command allows the operator to precisely coordinate every component of their True-Tandem vertical tillage equipment to optimize all machine settings as field conditions change. When the disk frame depth is adjusted, all other functions of the machine — such as crumbler pressure and fore and aft levelness — react to remain optimized for agronomic performance.
Operator efficiency

Ease of operation with AFS Soil Command allows operators to easily make the right agronomic adjustments when and where conditions dictate. Adjust each system component individually or record a group of preferred settings so the operator can return to a given set of adjustments, depending on field conditions.
Optimize every pass

Proven and dependable AFS components integrated into True-Tandem vertical tillage iron match the performance and ruggedness of Case IH tillage tools for increased durability, and in-cab controls for each system component allow operators to make every inch of the field an ideal crop environment.

Vertical Tillage Lineup

Choose from two rugged models and three blade options

True-tandem 335VT

Whether slicing through tough residue or uprooting root balls, the True-Tandem 335VT vertical tillage tool helps you level the soil to create the optimal seedbed for the next growing season. Two Earth Metal^® 20-inch VT Wave Blade options — including a new longer-edge-life, 20-inch, 5 mm thick blade option — are right-sized to penetrate hard soils and break through surface compaction and properly mix residue and nutrients.
True-tandem 335 barracuda

Setting a new standard for aggressive crop residue and soil management, the True-Tandem 335 Barracuda effectively sizes and incorporates even the most stubborn crop residue to leave behind a blacker surface finish than other vertical tillage tools. Its rugged design is built for reliability at high speeds and the aggressive 22-inch serrated blades cut residue up to 4 inches deep to break up hard, dry soils for increased nutrient cycling.
