Kuhn EL 43-130 power tillers are a versatile tool and suitable for various tasks. It has been designed for seedbed preparation, gardening, greenhouse operations, and landscape maintenance. It is particularly suited for compact and small tractors of 15 to 40 horsepower.
Improvements to the EL 43 include a larger diameter rotor shaft with four longer-wearing, flange-mounted blades and easier to adjust skid shoes. The EL 43 has a sliding hitch frame, rear set gearbox, and heavy steel plates for the top deck and hood, all helping to provide strength and durability for optimum performance and long service life.
Rotor Drive
The rotor is driven by tempered steel sprockets, located in a side case with thick walls on the EL 53. The oversized chain with automatic tension adjustment is much more resistant to fatigue than competitive models. The drive chain is immersed in an oil bath for consistent lubrication.
Central Gearbox
The central cast iron gearbox of the smaller models is mounted directly on the tiller frame with hardened forged steel gears that run in an oil bath. It can be offset with the 3-point frame to avoid an awkward angle on the transmission. This allows it to work easily under trees and on field edges. The drive is protected as standard by a friction slip clutch.
Adjustable Rear Hood
The rear hood of EL tillers is ideally shaped for a uniform soil flow and adaptable to various conditions such as shallow or deep tillage, dry or wet soil, and different quantities of plant residue. Adjusting the rear hood by way of check chains is easy and efficient. If the rear hood is positioned close to the rotor, it accumulates soil until the latter is recycled to the front, which results in a high crumbling degree. In wet conditions or in plant residues, the machine will cope better with a more open rear hood.
C-Blades
The special curved design of the Kuhn tiller blades has been optimized, tested and provides chopping and mixing of plant residues, aggressive entry into hard soil while requiring less horsepower and increased crumbling of soil clouds. The EL 53 is fitted with six blades per flange as standard for efficient crumbling. For shallow work, L-blades can be fitted on the EL 53.
Quick Hitch Compatible
With a simple optional adaptor the hitch of the EL 43 is compatible with the North American cat.1 Quick Hitch for faster attachment and removal.
