KE 02 Rotamix rotary harrow

Always the right machine

The wide variety of KE 02 Rotamix rotary harrow models enables AMAZONE to offer reliable rotary harrows tailored to your needs. Combined with a seed drill, or for solo use, the soil tillage implements stand for uncompromising reliability and quality.

With various models of roller available, it is possible to specify a complete unit of soil tillage and drill that are perfectly matched to the prevailing soil conditions.

The Rotamix system – close-coupled, compact and robust

The KE 02 has 4 tine carriers per metre of working width. The incoming power is evenly distributed across these rotors. The trailing tines produce an excellent crumb structure and level the soil surface perfectly. The new KE 02, equipped with the Rotamix system, demonstrates its advantages primarily on heavy ground and is ideal for optimum seedbed preparation, especially after the plough.

The 4 tine carriers per metre of working width enables a small spur gear diameter. As a result, it makes a very compact design of the rotary harrow trough possible.

The short design of the rotary harrow reduces the leverage effect on the tractor. This means any harrow-mounted seed drill is positioned very close to the tractor when used in combination. The lift power requirement is lower than that of other rotary harrows, which also makes a positive impact on the need for front ballasting.

Higher tractor horsepower categories

At the heart of the new KE 02 is the DirectDrive gearbox, via which the higher power input is transmitted directly to the spur gears driving the rotary harrow tines. As in the case of the KX and KG rotary cultivators, there is no power redirection, thereby ensuring excellent low-wear power transmission. The main gearboxes are mounted on both wings of the folding KE 02-2. The rotary harrow can be used at PTO shaft input speeds of 540/750/1000. Exchange gear sets for other rotor speeds are possible. Higher speeds improve the crumbling performance.

1. Compact spur gear trough with a robust construction
   Spur gears with reduced diameter, slim design, robust 45 mm shaft diameter, 6 mm trough wall thickness and a double-skinned trough bottom
2. Tine carrier forged from one piece
3. Quick+Safe system: Quick change tine system with integrated stone release
4. Trailing KE tines, 290 mm long

The headstock of the KE 02-150 and KE 02-190 has Category 3N fixed lower link supports. The load capacities are slightly lower than those of the headstock of the KE 02-240. As a result, it cannot be combined with the Centaya Super. On the other hand, the headstock can be optimally combined with the familiar “Liftpack” system.

Extendable lower links allow the KE 02- 240 to be individually aligned to any tractor size. This also facilitates attachment of tractor wheel mark eradicators. In addition, the lower links can be adapted to suit linkage dimensions of Cat. 3 or Cat. 3N.
