22B Integral Ripper

A single parabolic standard ripper provides an economical means of shattering hardpan soil by exploding the soil upward to promote root growth:

• Curved standard is less likely to slice through marginally moist soils than a straight standard
• Mole ball can be attached to the standard to help drain wet soils by leaving a small tunnel under the soil
• V-knife can be attached to the standard to effectively cut the root systems
• Improves water percolation into the subsoil zone

Two sizes of standards are available:

• 25 mm x 686 mm (1 in. x 27 in.)
  • Maximum working depth of 406 mm (16 in.)
• 32 mm x 838 mm (1.25 in. x 33 in.)
  • Maximum working depth of 559 mm (22 in.)

Both standards are protected for up to 6364 kg (14,000 lb) of operating force by a 16-mm (5/8-in.) shear bolt.

The 22B In-Line Ripper attaches to the tractor's 3-point hitch:

• 25-mm x 686-mm (1-in. x 27-in.) standard model is compatible with Category 1, 3-point hitch tractors.
• 32 mm x 838 mm (1.25 in. x 33-in.) standard model is compatible with Category 2 or 2/3N tractors with or without Quik-Coupler
  • 16.9-30 or larger rear tractor tires are recommended

For Category 2 and 2/3N Tractors with Quik-Coupler, order AR27093.

 

For Category 2/3N Tractors without Quik-Coupler, order one R64434 and two R66435.

For Category 2 and 2/3N Tractors with Quik-Coupler, order AR27093.

 

For Category 2/3N Tractors without Quik-Coupler, order one R64434 and two R66435.

Standards may be ordered to convert the machine for different operational requirements. In the sales manual, see tractor compatibility and equipment requirements for restrictions.

To convert from a 25-mm x 686-mm (1-in. x 27-in.) standard to a 32-mm x 838-mm (1.25-in. x 33-in.) standard, order N261789.
 
To convert from a 32-mm x 838-mm (1.25-in. x 33-in.) standard to a 25-mm x 686-mm (1-in. x 27-in.) standard, order N261788 and A25273.

The heavy-duty knife attaches to the lower end of the standard to open up the sub-soil and shear the roots.
 
Each knife is 610 mm (24 in.) long and will cut 267 mm (10.5 in.) on each side of the standard.
 
The 76-mm x 8-mm (3-in. x 5/16-in.) blades are sharpened on the leading edge.

The mole ball is used to make a tunnel drainage system. It requires BA24894 standard support attachment.

The standard support attachment is required to attach the mole ball to the standard. It also allows the frame to jackknife for automatic retraction and operation of the standard.
