Installation requirements
Confirm the implement fits your tractor
Before ordering, send the machine identification and the connection, power and working information relevant to this product.
Tractor mounting arrangement
Confirm whether the tractor uses a suitable front linkage or reverse-drive arrangement; a conventional rear connection alone does not establish suitability.
Power and lifting capacity
Compare the chosen model’s listed tractor-power range, implement weight and actual lifting capacity.
PTO input and direction
Match the model-specific input speed, connection and required rotation direction to the tractor and guarded driveline.
Rows and pruning material
Provide row clearance, vegetation and pruning conditions. Confirm tool choice and operation against the manufacturer’s permitted material range.
Product questions
Orchard mulcher questions
Do all AG models use the same PTO input speed?
No. The AG140–AG180 rows list 540 r/min, while AG200 and AG220 list 1000 r/min. Check the selected model before connecting the driveline.
What PTO speed and rotation direction should I check?
Match the model-specific input speed, connection and required rotation direction to the tractor and guarded driveline.
What should I check before installation?
Confirm whether the tractor uses a suitable front linkage or reverse-drive arrangement; a conventional rear connection alone does not establish suitability. Compare the chosen model’s listed tractor-power range, implement weight and actual lifting capacity.
