Lilliston Rolling Cultivator with Row TopperThe Row Topper® may be equipped on a Lilliston Rolling Cultivator® to prepare a perfect seedbed. The Row Topper executes several operations critical to planting in one field pass. Front bed knocker will clip beds to a consistent height in a pattern to match the planter. Front 14-1/2" spider gangs mulch the top of the bed and incorporate herbicide. Rear roller or optional basket flattens and firms the seedbed. The Row Topper is the one pass pre-plant tool that you need this spring!
 
Bed Knocker
  • Bed Knocker shaves off the very top of each bed at a consistent height.
  • Band spray, incorporate chemicals, reshape beds and remove unwanted vegetation at 8 to 10 mph.
  • Incorporate chemicals in a consistent layer on top of the bed. Band herbicides on top of the row to eliminate weeds in the crop row and reduce chemical costs.
  • Spider gangs will not plug like other units. Each spider gang is equipped with scrapers.
  • Unit is fully adjustable. The Row Topper can handle heavy soil types.
  • Rear packer wheel and tire assembly leaves a level and uniform bed, a perfect environment for planting.
  • Rear optional basket will break up clods and enhance incorporation of chemicals. New!
