2230 Field Cultivators

NOT JUST LEVEL.THE NEXT LEVEL. Picture the most level seedbed you’ll ever create. The John Deere 2230LL Levellift™ Field Cultivator and the 2230FH Floating Hitch Field Cultivators deliver the next level of performance. The 2230FH Floating Hitch Field Cultivator works independently from the tractor and follows the contour of the ground so the implement remains level. The 2230LL Level-lift™ Field Cultivator allows the front of the implement to come out of the ground and the rear of the implement to go deeper since the tractor impacts depth. See illustrations at right. Redesigned from below the ground up, these tillage models deliver a smooth, level finish on the surface. The sweeps slice, mix and condition the soil to produce an even, uniform field finish below the surface, creating the perfect environment for your new seeds to take root and thrive. Cultivate up to 217 more acres (88 ha) per day, compared to our previous model of field cultivators. Work wider. With working widths of up to 69 ft. 6 in. (21.2 m), you can cover more ground per pass and acres per day. With 15 configurations of the 2230LL and 15 configurations of the 2230FH, you can choose the right size tool for your operation and your tractor. Work faster. By increasing our maximum work speed from 8 to 10 mph (13 to 16 km/h), you can drive 25% faster

than before and cover more ground, acre after acre, day after day. More durable frame design. Both field cultivator models have an updated lattice-style frame design with durable tubing for long-lasting performance. Consistent residue flow. The frame design enables true 6-in. (15.2-cm) splitthe-middle shank spacing for maximum residue flow, soil mixing and weed control across the full width of the implement. By increasing the number of ranks on select configurations, each sweep now has a 24-in. (60-cm) clearance around it. Easy transport. We’ve improved transport dimensions on nearly all implement sizes, and low-transport configurations are available. Configurations to meet your needs. Our lineup includes both three-section and five-section Level-lift and Floating Hitch configurations, a wider range of working widths and features to meet the unique needs of your operation. Rolling basket options. Round or flat bars pulverize clods and leave the coarse soil on top, allowing the fine soil particles to stay in the seed zone for better seed-to-soil contact. Raise, lower or float your baskets to adjust to changing field conditions - all from the comfort of your cab. You can also adjust down pressure from 0 - 900 psi (6.2 mpa) from the cab with TruSet.
