LEMKEN POWER HARROW

The most important parts for the active harrow LEMKEN

1. working tines (blades, rotor blades).

Working tines are the basic working element of an active harrow. They are mounted on rotating vertical shafts and are responsible for loosening and mixing the soil. Depending on the model and type of soil, different shapes and lengths of tines are used - straight, curved or reinforced. The high-quality tines are made of hardened wear-resistant steel.

Tip: Regular inspection of tine wear and replacement prevents excessive stress on the gearbox and increases the efficiency of operation.

2 Tine shafts (rotors).

It is on them that the working teeth are mounted. The rotors rotate thanks to the drive gear and are responsible for the intensive work of the soil. Their design and arrangement determine the uniformity of soil processing and the quality of field preparation.

3 Bearings and seals

These components ensure smooth operation of rotors and protect internal mechanisms from dirt and moisture. Regular replacement of seals prevents dust and mud from entering the gearbox.

4. catch-up shaft (rear shaft)

The packer roller is used to level the soil surface after the harrow passes and to compact the soil before sowing. LEMKEN harrows can be found with different types of rollers: tubular, packer, rubber, spiral or trapezoidal - selected according to soil conditions.

5 The frame and body of the machine

The frame design determines the strength of the entire machine. Original LEMKEN frames are made of high-quality steel resistant to mechanical stress. Frame components, fasteners and brackets are available in case of damage.

6 Drive transmission and PTO shaft.

The transmission transfers the drive from the tractor to the tine shafts. This is an element of great importance for work efficiency - its correct operation affects the uniformity and intensity of the tines. The PTO shaft with appropriate protection (such as an overload clutch) protects the gearbox from damage.

7 Shields, fasteners and accessories

The harrow also includes various side guards, mounting elements, bolts, nuts, wedges, bushings and other small components. Although inconspicuous, they have a significant impact on the safety and durability of the machine.

Original parts vs. replacements

Although replacements for LEMKEN machines are available on the market, original spare parts are recommended for heavy use. They ensure:

• full compatibility,
• longer service life,
• lower risk of failure,
• better working efficiency.

Summary

Regular maintenance of the LEMKEN active harrow and the use of high-quality spare parts are the key to long and trouble-free operation of the machine. Before the season, it is a good idea to check the condition of working tines, gears, shafts and bearings - and, if necessary, replace worn parts. This will ensure that the machine will work at full capacity and the field will be prepared perfectly for sowing.
