The Rural Voice, 1990-02, Page 59WHAT'S NEW COULTERS OFFER TILLAGE SAVINGS The disc -chisel coulters from Yetter are designed to convert conventional implements for minimum tillage at a minimum cost, and can be mounted ahead of each shank to reduce imple- ment draft while making one pass pos- sible in trashy conditions. The self -sharpening 17 or 20 -inch ripple blade coulters slice the trash and residue so the chisel can shatter and in- corporate with less horsepower. Plug- ging problems are reduced and the result is better protection against wind and rain erosion. Yetter disc -chisel coulters are equipped with sealed bearings and are spring-loaded to prevent bouncing. Downpressure can be adjusted for ground conditions, depth of cut, and blade wear.° EQUIPMENT PUTS WOOD TO U S E The Farmi line of tractor -mounted forestry equipment is being distributed in Ontario by Monette Sales in Carlton Place. And Farmi equipment, manufac- tured in Finland, is being sold in mid- western Ontario by Barfoot's Machine Shop in Wiarton. The line includes wood chippers, skidding winches, and log -loading cranes designed to mount on the 3 point hitch attachments -of farm tractors. There are several models of skidders with up to a 7 -ton pulling capacity and a drum capacity of 400 feet of cable. The three models of wood chippers are designed to chop anything from twigs to logs one foot in diameter. Jim Barfoot notes that it makes good sense to use wood material for fuel, mulch, or livestock bedding rather than letting it go to waste or needlessly fill up landfill sites.° TELL THEM YOU SAW THEIR ADVERTISEMENT IN THE RURAL VOICE 56 THE RURAL VOICE NEW & USED STEEL for Gates, Pens, Supports, Pipes, Fences, Farm Buildings, & Equipment See us for all your building and repair projects Hwy. 6 & 10, Owen Sound, 519-376-0420 NEW ' LICS UMITEO • Custom Cylinder building & repair including Truck Hoists, Fork Lifts, etc. • General Machining • Hydraulic Seals & Packing NEW -LIFT HYDRAULICS Limited Wallace Ave., N.
